Oh Lyle... sweet precious "sleeping" like a filthy soiled angel Lyle.

Also, Mr. Bear is one classy guy all putting on a tux just to read.  I picture it's a book which he has read before and for which he has an entire ceremony to so do.  "First, I don my best attire and prepare a hand-rolled.  Then, I will set aside four fingers of grappa.  This is the proper amount to make me just whimsical enough to enjoy Great Expectations."

I don't know why I picture him reading Great Expectations, I just do.

He also crosses his legs, apparently.

I picture him as more of a Middlemarch sort of fellow.

Heh.. or Wuthering Heights.    I should stop, this could go on all day.

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.

I've actually done that myself from time to time, it's really quite fun.

First, I don my best attire and prepare a hand-rolled. 

Never put assunder what I believe to be the proper attyre for Great Expectations.

Also, I never entertained the thought that he hand rolls his own hand-rolleds.  I am pretty sure he "leaves" that up to experts.

Puns man, puns!  Jough is about!  Watch your back!

Erk. I can't really see this storyline going well ... which probably means it'll be the best set of strips yet.

[theinevitable]

it will be run by beef and ray.

also: 'stad is ripping off himself, at this point.

[littlefallsmets]

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

As a *****, he does not sleep and hence can swing multiple gigs.

All this being said, I would not be surprised if this is Onstad purposely making us think we're gonna hit a variation on the Great Outdoor Fight, just so that he can blindside us with something completely different. He does a lot of that and... most of the time, it works. Maybe... I love making up arbitrary numbers... we'll say... when he creates a story beginning that seems to telegraph where he's going...

17% of the time, he strikes out.
55.4% of the time, he goes somewhere completely unexpected.
27.6% of the time, he goes where you thought but in such an exaggerated way that it works.

The completely made-up odds call for "completely unexpected".

This intro makes me want to watch that movie The Game again.

A) Mac Fags reprezent.  Also, melack has a surprisingly small amount of items in his dock.  What the hell dude?

B) Also, just judging from these images, I'm pretty sure that Lyle has already won the badass competition, being passed out drunk (presumably sometime during the productive hours of the day) in his own filth.  If that's not badasssssss what is?

[mrchee]

Its obvious that Vlad will win

[Ben-San]

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?

The top lock there is a modified hinge. He puts the spikey-handle thingy through it and the door cannot be opened. There is no way to lock or unlock it from outside, so functionally it's like a beefier version of those sliding chain locks.

What I don't get is the bottom lock. It looks like either (a) the door has a lever the size of a baseball bat or (b) it has a keyhole of equal size requiring a giant Fortress Of Solitude-esque key to open.

The bottom lock brings back a vague memory.  I can't place it, but I know what the thing is.  It is a metal pole that sticks into a depression in the door, and a depression in the floor the a couple of feet away from the door.  (That is why it looks fatter at the bottom in the drawing- it is Perspective.)  The door opens inward, obviously, or this wouldn't accomplish a damn thing.
