Starvation has has tragically resulted in penile or perhaps testicular atrophy.

I laughed so hard a little bit of wee came out - and that normally only happens to ladies

"put butter on what I said"

this is one of the funniest renderings of Ray ever. his dangling bauble (and I don't mean his medallion) made me chortle...

PUT BUTTER ON WHAT I JUST SAID!

The absurdity is veiled by the poetic charm with which the poet invests it.

There are like ten lines in this that should be the thread title.

Worth the buildup even if things have seemed to meander a bit slowly lately.  Phooey on all you impatient ones who have been complaining about your free entertainment.

He's apparently missing a lense in his glasses but is still wearing them anyway. That would drive me nuts.

Honestly, I could do without ever seeing Lonis again. The setup was so supremely weird and sinister, but the payoff just didn't happen for me.

Until today, that is. So funny and yet so disturbing. Wouldn't say it made up for the previous two weeks of pointless meandering, but what a splendid way to start a Wednesday. Tennis lessons, indeed.

I guess walking home from Mexico is less objectionable than riding the bus with Riverdance Butters and the ladies.

Put me in for a minority vote on really liking this whole arc, slow bits in the middle included.

I think what is and is not "slow" in a serialized format is pretty subjective.  Re-reading the archives, a lot of stories that I found sort of a slog to get through (like C. Head) are now fantastic read at a faster pace.  And as to the claims of Shark Jumping, I think it's pretty obvious that Mr. O is in this for the long haul.  His total rejection of the whole hey-everyone-look-at-me! mode of being a webcartoonist gives me hope that I'll still be reading and enjoying new achewoods when President Perot invades Canada.  The tone and thrust of the strip drifts a bit as the years go by, but I wouldn't say that there's been any decline in quality.

And yeah, today's strip was one of the funniest things I've ever read.  My favorite bit is Cornelius' sober rebuttal to Ray's assumption about Western Union. 

Stuffing a Lasagna inside a Turkey... you know... that might be good.  Anyone got kitchen skills and a camera?

I must not have been awake enough when I read the strip this morning because I just realized that I came away with a mental picture of a turkey stuffed inside a lasagna instead of the other way around.

guys, to reiterate, I was not saying that onstad was jumping any sort of anything. what I was saying is that now that I know that phrase, it comes to mind any time I don't like something that I used to enjoy, even if this is a temporary state.

I had to drive home from a concert like that.  Definitely not an excellent thing to do!  But I had no choice.
