THE BADASS GAMES COMMENCE - June 8, 2006
« on: June 08, 2006, 08:27:53 am »

Is it just me, or too many major event storylines lately? We're still kinda just coming off the GOF.

edit: sorry, forgot to include the link. Please see my post count for explanation.

Not to steal your thunder, but there's the link:

Now, my question is this: how is the Badass Games different from the Great Outdoor Fight? Do all arcs have to be some kind of epic competition? The distinction between Achewood as we know it and American Gladiators is blurring by the minute.

The Badass Games is either a new competitor to the Great Outdoor Fight or the re-emergence of it (it was pretty much rendered destroyed by Ray and Beef).

Despite no real gag, I loved this strip. It's all in the little details that really make up the characters: Teodor's locked up in his study with hella computer gear, Mr Bear dressed up reading with a finger of fine liquor on the side, Pat's locks (fuck*ng hilarious), and Lyle sort of passed out, indeed passing by everything else.

Also, the -fft-

Incidentally my first thought was of COURSE Teodor is the kind of guy to have two flat screen monitors set up at his computer.

My first thought was that I am not one to complain about my free entertainment but not another GOF?

My second thought was that whenever I have Doubted before, I have been wrong.

There are many directions this could go in - for example, Nice Pete could be using it as a ruse to get them all in one place and mow them down with an assault weapon.

So, patience.

Somebody's read Snow Crash. This could be interesting.

Yeah that's right, I knew it sounded familiar from somewhere. I feel like Nice Pete does, now that someone has brought him up, have fairly Poor Impulse Control.

Lyle sure does look peaceful, lying there in his own filth. I almost envy the dude.

Vlad owns a Subway, is a notary public, and runs a pawn shop. Damn, that guy gets around.

I never seen the kind of lock at the top of Pat's door. How does that thing work? And did Pat install all of those after his wang was electrocuted, or did Lyle and Philippe just bypass all of them?

Oh Lyle, is that more spaghetti, or have you soiled yourself?

I'd like to point out that we already knew of Téodor's computer setup, because Ray used it to stage the motorcycle jump of Mount Everest.

And I, too, loved the locks on Pat's door.  And Vlad!  It's nice to see that crazy 'bot again.

I find it amusing that Téodor has an AM/FM radio on top of his computer. Dude really hates MP3s apparently.

Also, is it me or is Beef the only character that doesn't wear any clothes?

Dear lord please not another month of GOF. I was plenty happy with aluminum diapers.

- also, nice catch on the Snow Crash reference. my favorite line from the book goes something like "the deliverators car was a shiny black lozenge with enough power to send a pound of bacon into the asteroid belt."

Brilliant!

If there are Jeeps involved... ah, there are to useful threats I can make.  If there are Jeeps involved I will be sorely disappointed.
