[V-Adore]

When Ray and Beef say it, I hear "Hy-may" in my head but when the racist on the phone says it, I hear "Jay-mee."  

So is Beef a Jew just because of that whole Yo' Mama Law of Judaism?  I remember the Greek Orthodoxy being a big part of his upbringing...

I suspect he's making the Jew thing up; his mother certainly doesn't appear to have been of Jewish extraction, and by the Yo' Mama Law, his father doesn't exactly count.

Also, you're exactly right on the pronunciations, I think. I suspect even Ray can pronounce it "HI-may" by now.

[Roger]

Well, technically Beef only said that his father did "lay with a Jewess", that doesn't necessarily imply he was talking about his mother...
Maybe Beef just can't lie; the worst he can do is, um... twist the truth a little?

And yes, Hi-may is exactly right.

Am I the only one who sees this arc ending up with crosses burning on Roast Beef's (okay, technically Ray's) lawn?

[Bobby Isosceles]

I don't think "pickles on parade" is the most inventive non-catch-phrase that Onstad has invented - not even recently.

I think I'm going to sit this storyline out.

I'll be over here if anyone needs me.

We won't, trust us.

Though you could use your copious spare time to move the site like you've been threatening between bitching about the price of things versus the Olden Days and yelling at those kids ot get off your lawn.

okay this is a totally annoying thing to pick out, but i did so now if you don't want to be annoyed don't read the rest of this

so the white knight knows that Jaime is a cat, right? but he tells Beef that they had a "geek chinaman" what could kill and cook a civet cat.  does Beef's Jaime-moustache fool the TV audience into thinking he is a man?  a man named Raoul Cousins that worked "on computers"?

i do like the knight character, though.  he's all interrupty and complimenty.

A civet cat is not a cat. It is, I believe, a mustelid.

i read that they were large carnivorous cats in like africa and people get some sort of perfume from their smelliness.  maybe i should have researched deeper.

but that's not really my question . . . does the tv audience think that Jaime is a man or a cat?

I don't get it. I googled for "pickles on parade" and it seems like it's a thing, but everyone in this thread is talking like Onstad made it up. Is it a thing or isn't it a thing?

It's more to fun than the strip to picture someone pathetic enough that this would bother them.

Holy shit dude, I was just wondering. I guess wondering is not cool, but being a dick to people on the internet is!

Getting your panties in a bunch isn't, though.

You know, Bobby, posting on an internet message board is a PRIVILEGE, not a right.

Look, am I gonna have to handing down the mandatory kissing and dry humping in this thread too?

And I'm not too keen to start speculating which fictional animal comic characters* Cathy might bone, but if need be, I will. Trust me I will.

It's more fun than the strip to watch noobies give themselves wedgies over something a total stranger typed into a box on the internet.

[Suckin_Dick]

okay re:noob bashing...

the way i see it (as a relative noob) is that we don't need to be making any personal attacks on anyone, noob or not, and then we don't need to be getting upset about these "attacks" (it is the internet after all) and we don't need to exacerbate the situation further by jumping on people who get upset.  i know this stuff has been said before, but i thought i'd put in my two cents.

and re: the strip,

i have to admit i laughed out loud at the last panel.  the implied awkward pause combined with the imagined tone of a man who just is very, very upset by this news he has just received is pretty darn funny.
