Well, this arc took a swerve I wasn't expecting. I guess Ray decided it was man-time and he got to come real.

Nothing like the head-sweat of a fat balding knee-jerk social-conservative activist type.

He got that sweat just right. Spot on.

"This world ain't nothin' but bad news and the pills that go with it." I have to figure out how to steal that line for a script without getting caught. Oh man, is that a good line. And oh man, is that an ironic line coming out of Ray's mouth.

I had a Kashi brand TV dinner and the package said it was made with honest ingredients.  I was thinking what a load of hossshit.  I'm glad Onstad agrees with me.  Dang, I wish I had a woman thinking about my Christmas present in March.  That would be nice.

Also, maybe, perhaps, the possibility that this may lead to Roast Beef getting married, a-hem??

Ladies, don't do this to your eyebrows, serious. Eyebrows do not need this much attention, nor do they need to look like they are part of a clown's make up.

Guys, don't wear short sleeved dress shirts with black ties. Is it ever OK to wear a short sleeved dress shirt?

This strip does make me feel better about being engaged for almost 4 years, though.

I feel like I am a rare guy, in that I am totally into the concept of one day being married.

I'm sure I would feel differently, though, if the possibility were not so far off.

No.  Short sleeves w/ a tie = wrong.  Short sleeve sport shirts are OK.    "Short sleeved dress shirt" is an oxymoron.

I kind of liked the idea of Beef and Molly getting married until I thought - then are they going to have kittens?  And that's just going terrifyingly too far.

A dress shirt should be worn with a jacket.  Could you imagine seeing someone's arms, sans cuffs, poking out of a dress jacket?

yes, because my cuffs somehow work their way up into the jacket without me noticing.

Also because sometimes people wear a dress jacket with a polo shirt? no? My highschool's sense of acceptable fashion was way outside the mainstream.

Yeah, it makes me wonder what kind of birth control they use. Was the Today Sponge banned in the kitty underground as well?

I remember having an argument with my mom that short-sleeved dress shirts are hell of tacky and nobody wears them. Her counter argument was that my dad wears them. I pointed out that she basically buys his clothes as well, so that's not really evidence. She finally relented when I challenged her to find one person on TV with a short-sleeved dress shirt that didn't also sport a pocket-protector.

I hate wearing a jacket. It's usually so pointless (events where a jacket required for entry, but you're encouraged to take it off as soon as you're inside) and hot. Plus I have no idea how to decide which one to wear with which #####/tie/shirt.

In the opposite direction I sometimes wear long-sleeved polo/golf shirts to work. I always feel vaguely toolish when I do, but I also don't feel like dealing with the cleaning/ironing of 4 dress shirts a week.

Basically if I ever get a job with business attire I'm fucked.

Anyway, cartoon cats. Beef has already stated emphatically that he wants no kids but I think Molly could talk him into it.

Actual true fact: I live in a town called Carrboro.  But nobody gives us free cheese sandwiches, dammit.
