@achewood Note how white pepper, ground freshly into one's hand, makes it smell as though you've been rubbing your open palm around on a horse's anus.

I was also going to suggest something like a certificate, or perhaps a trophy, but didn't want to get nominated for it.  Didn't want to get nominated for the cookies, either, but I figured I could talk my sister into that.

But I doubt he'd want a plate of cookies from a stranger.  Or maybe he's the kind of guy who wouldn't mind.


Are you kidding?  Based upon the image Onstad has tried to project through the various vehicles of Achewood, he is the kind of guy who is so prissy about food that nothing will cross his lips unless it has been personally approved by Alton's kosher butcher and written up in no less than three obscure food magazines.  

Ha!  Onstad would never eat anything as low, as plebian, as unsophisticated as your Raisin Roundies!

My mistake.

And they call them roundies down there?

Yeah, well, watching Shark Week for nineteen hours straight doesn't make me Jacques Cousteau.

The dude drinks Bud Light from cans and puts Miracle Whip on his sandwiches, for heaven's sake. But yeah, the über-foodie schtick, while entertaining and informative, can get a little precious.

T MILES "roundies" is prison slang:
30 commissary roundies = 10 homemade roundies = 1 pack of tailor-mades = 90 seconds of distracting the guards

I remember that once upon a time Onstad was pleased to receive hella amounts of RAM from board regulars, thus boosting the entire comic production process.

Cookies, in the words of one Hermann Goering, " will only make you fat".


Oh, and if you think paraphrasing guns and butter into RAM and cookies is "stretching things a bit", you have not truly embraced the possibilities of information technology (or cookies).

that is all.

uh. I did wonder whether this could be considered a proper godwin, but I suppose it is.

Dang, not even Paris Hilton's "humanitarian" firm could make quoting nazis acceptable in polite company.

Probably a good thing, too.

I'm going to accept this as a proper Godwin and do the only thing that is right.
