@achewood There are only five Wodehouse books on my special Wodehouse shelf?! As Jeeves himself might ask, "Where in the fuck are the rest of them."

03/11/05: the very lifeline of my heritage
« on: March 11, 2005, 10:26:54 am »
A small part of me wants Pat to protest initially, then grudgingly give in to Ray's demands, then... how shall we put this? ...be rather more effusive in his compliments than Ray (and we, the gentle readers) may have been ready for.

And plus, I have been wanting to drink beer too.

This is fast, nasty, ache-style karma for the pretty please welsh. And I know this has pretty much been posted for the last three days but: I dislike Pat more than ever.

Yeah, and something else I just noticed on re-reading: I bet Pat pronounces 'damned' with two syllables. All the more reason to not like him.

Also, evidently Pat has had his cell phone on his person through this whole ordeal, yet has not called anyone for help. I'm guessing the only person he would consider actually calling would be Nice Pete, and I'm guessing he doesn't have a cell phone.

This has got to be the most satsifying Achewood story-arch ever made. I hope Liittle Nephew overhears Pat sing the praises of Ray's dick.

Ironic reversal of the week: after Pat's "pretty please" welsh, Ray actually seems pretty sincere about the whole thing. Seriously, he's cool with helping Pat; he just wants Pat to say something good about his dick.

Also, "lifeline of my heritage": relatively classy euphemism for Ray's progenitive organ, or off-handed reference to Ray being culturally Jewish, which would be news to me? Discuss.

I too loved the run up to the last panel.
"And plus I have been wanting to dirnk beer" is a great line, although comes a second to the finale.

Circumsised felines? Is that even...

Getting away from the possible mechanics of the situation, I find it kind of funny that now the focus is on circumcision and not on neutering, which you'd think would be more detrimental to loss of sexual sensation (although I've heard it's not in humans, so nobody link me to the Rotten Library). Is this just a sign of the strip's universe slowly diverging from one where cats are owned by people?

First of all, how can this thread NOT be titled, "Come on man, say good stuff about my dick". That seems like a crime against humanity or something.

Also, I have been called "Turtleneck Tom" in many a public shower in my day, and it hurts.

It hurts bad.  (tearful purple smile guy... NOW):cry:

The best part is the panel of silence where Pat is apparently choking on his own rage an unable to even reply.

Also that Ray wasn't wanting to drink a beer.

Is Ray perhaps...a Jewish American Curl?

If so, my unfortunate crush on him has just increased by an order of magnitude.

I doubt Ray's Jewish, he's not conservative enough.  LN could be Jewish, or certainly Beef, but not Ray.  Although maybe he should convert... he'd look tite in a keepah and talis.

P.S. Ray's eyebrows have been righteous of late.
