Hah, impossible. A-CAP requires alcohol to function, much like it requires a certain number of high-diving suicides per semester.

I bet they've found a way to ban smoking, though.

[Arachno-capitalist]

They did ban smoking in all dorms and something like 25 feet around every building. All windows are bolted and the stairs in the library have giant plexiglass guards to prevent suicide. I was put on probation my first week here because I drank a beer with a guy down the hall, and my friend is "persona non grata" from all property of A-CAP because he got drunk one night and an RA saw him stumble into a poster about oppression in third world nations.
This is either A-CAP or the little town in Footloose.

I sent the meatspin link to my roommate under the title "A-CAP Bans Alcohol".
He threw off his headphones, called me a dick, and stormed out of the room.

Canned, you magnificent reactionary bastard.

I can't even imagine college without alcohol. I prefer pot, but my first strong memory of the dorms in which I now live was waking up in one covered in vomit and wearing someone else's clothes. (On second thought, calling that a strong memory is probably an overstatement.) You basically only get cracked down on for bringing Substances into your room if your RA is a huge dick or if you are. Then again, my fiancee and I aren't big drinkers and parties are boring if you're not single, so I don't know too well from experience.

This don't make you gay any more than watchin' NASCAR makes you a good driver.

Tragically too long for a thread title, I guess.

[jough]

The line would have been funnier as "any more than watching NASCAR makes you a white trash hick" but I get the idea.

[dejavroom]

Ok, they're watching gay porn and discussing it. That's no biggie. What really threw me off in the last strip was that Ray said that he was gonna try getting off to it, which is in no way hetero, no matter how much you try to see it as a wacky dare fueled on the buzz of the challenge (That might be, incidentally, the exact line where zany flamboyance transforms into flaming gaytude).

[Ruta Bagas]

Surely "getting off" doesn't have to be sexual?

I mean, obviously Onstad is well aware that is has those connotations, but that doesn't mean that has to be the intended sense. Doesn't it fit Ray's character pretty well that he should use orgasm as a metaphorical expression of his enjoyment of pretty much anything?

[dejavroom]

It Makes Sense.

[robot_god]

to get off (2 get offff) - to have some fly times that are either mellow or hyped


Beef was so bewildered that Ray was watching gay porn, that he had to put on a tie to confront him.

No, it's better as it is. Like, watching gay porn can't TURN you gay, either. Or watching NASCAR cause you to actually learn to drive well.

I personally would like to see at least one more strip on Teodore and maybe one confrontational scene betwixt Pat and Ray.

I personally would like it if every time someone used the word "betwixt" they had to pay a fine

Then you'd have to include 'whilst' also.

That wasn't the way I took it - I just thought Beef had been doing some coding and was wearing his work clothes.  You can tell he's pretty chill with the whole thing by the end because he didn't take the opportunity to bail when he was getting his beer.

I would like a copy of People Magazine.
