To explain the whole karmatornado of "How Littlefallsmets pays the rent" would involve a story long winded for even for me and maybe if I get three hours I will PM you this complicated tale of joy and woe.

I'm guessing Gay Porn.  You're Ron aren't you?

Applying it to Achewood, one of the most thoroughly considered superstructures of characterization and setting in the history of webcomics, seems bafflingly inappropriate in any other context.

It's nothing less than this. I mean, my God, the blogs should be proof enough that there is something going on in Achewood, and the different voices/mannerisms/attitudes of the characters would only confirm that it is pretty solid. How can a born English speaker not like Beef's or Ray's writing/speaking style, or the bizarre ways in which English is mangled by some other characters is a mistery to me... Also, Onstad might not be a proper illustrator, but he manages to be funny precisely because of that: That cow that resembled everything else but a cow; Vlad is a ##### with leather shoes and an occasional Taxi Driver haircut. "A cookie with two shits inside". C'mon.

Actually, the more I think about it, the more it looks like a textbook case of sour grapes. I mean, the Achewood universe is huge, way more than whatever it is that PvP comics have (I never read them, but I'm guessing it's a strip and 1 blog - with the blog being written in authorial voice, not in character, which means no work. Work hard for your fuck*ng buck, PvP.

I'm wondering if this animus can all be traced back to that achewood pisstake strip where the rubbish 'web cartoon' characters appeared at Ray's door. All 'shmexy' fox ladies, hipster internet artists, and portentious elfs.

That strip has made me immune to just about every other webcomic now. Occasionally, a friend of mine will tell me to read some webcomic, and I'll just read a few strips, think "Your activities are so poorly conveyed" and then go do something else. It is a great timesaver.

[rabidambulance]

I'm tempted to make a Liberty Meadows project where I correlate each strip with the Bloom County strip it is "paying homage to".

I have learned from the fact that Achewood has had a large influence on my speaking voice that...
not everyone finds purposely awkward syntax appealing.

also: my favorite compliment ever:

"daniel... you speak English like it's your second language."

hell of such as truth

[Teatime]

Is it atypical to have used awkward syntax before reading Achewood, and loved it for its mastery of said awkwardness?

[mrchee]

I have at times heard Mr. Kurz fits the description of "fat fuck"

[mrchee]

Only one thing is certain, after having listened to that "webcast" (Is that the word of the times?)

These people deserve to die.  No one is allowed to speak about webcomics with this seriousness of intent and for so long, and to expect others to also give a shit

Also, Mr. Kurz is probably responsible for the famines in Africa

He actually more fits the description of "meatscape."

seriously, the guy walks in front of you and suddenly there is flab just stretching out for miles and miles

[pmcd9]

C'mon guys don't hate him because he's fat.  That's a cheap shot.  There are plenty of legitimate reason to hate him.

well, apart from being an entity properly measured by its gross tonnage, and being a pathetic little bitch for hating on Achewood, I really can't see another reason to hate the fat fuck.  Also, being a fat motherfucker is a perfectly good reason to be hated.  You must be one of the porkbeasts yourself or you would agree, fatty

PvP is actually a pretty good strip


Currently, my webcomic rankings go

I feel the same way about Ann Coulter.


There are so many reasons to hate her.   The left media seems to lock in on her goiter with hell of such as a steel resolve.

How about ... oh, I don't know ... she's a bat-shit-crazy racist?

Nope.   She looks like a dude.

[Bimmicus]

She IS a dude, dude.

Whereas Kurtz and his strip are both about as edgy as cream cheese.
