@achewood Irish Nachos are a charming take on the original, but I wonder what Uighur Nachos would be like. A mutton leg on a crisped pita?

Is this the first time we've seen the back of Ray's thong? It's kinda creeping me out.


If we had a tagging database with the keywords "back, ray, thong" we'd know this.

I'm just saying.

By no means. Drunk and passed out in the Best Western in Hell for one... Having just read Vol 4 again that's the only one I remember, although maybe dancing with Lazarus had another, but it's certainly not the first.

Oh, and Beef's look of pure revulsion in the last panel is fantastic, and justified, may I add.

It also contradicts previous rear-views which showed a Y-shaped contraption to allow for his tail.


Where is Ray's tail???

He tucks it in and it sticks out one of the leg holes. It's kind of like what would happen if Ron Jeremy wore briefs.

I am so sorry for saying that.

Sigh. There's a special hole just for his tail. Unless this he's finally purchased a 2nd thong, but I doubt he'd but one without this crucial feature.

It just occurred to me that Ray has 1 thong (hence Todd's theft upsetting him so) while Beef bought 365 pairs of briefs. The degree to which they are opposites continues to amaze me.

Beef's expression is classic of course, but what made the strip for me was Ray's inscription.  "Have fun having sex, Dude."


indeed, such that Ray is worried that Beef would not be having fun.

sadly, this might point out that Ray is the World's Best Friend.  Who other than Roast Beef would most likely _not_ have fun having sex, and who other than Ray would most likely seek to remind that person that having fun is the thing to do.



Indeed, that dimension of humor hadn't even occurred to me.  If there's anybody in the world that could have sex and not have fun at it, it would be Beef.


I bet Pat would have some complaints about sex.

I note to my relief that Ray has his tail in panel 1.  Perhaps the last two panels are shot at an extremely odd angle?  With an extremely odd new sort of thong?  Disturbing, still.

does pat have actual scientifically defined "fun"?

i posit that roast beef does, but most of the time forgets too.
