Maybe it's just too early in the morning, but words fail me.

Cornelius is just awesome at references. Although I think this narrowly beats out "There now. Afraid of the police?" as the best.

Correct choice of subject line.

Cornelius is a shining light from heaven.

I chastise myself for previously omitting to notice that the dude in Dude & Catastrophe is Beef himself. It makes sense now. Sweet, sweet sense.

Cornelius is my hero. The Dude and Catastrophe is my valhalla.

Great strip BTW. I was happy with the irreverance of the Envelope arc, but this has taken me someplace beyond that.

Frida Kahlo epitomizes human suffering.  Such an apt allusion for Beef.  Licking the unibrow is an unsettling image...

I want to know how he came up with that one.  "Lets see . . . need a horrifying dream for beef . . . licking Frida Kahlo's unibrow?  Yeah, yeah thats pretty bad."  I mean, damn.

For people like me who needed to look up the reference, here it is.

I am always fascinated with ladies who have facial hair.  I've always wanted to ask them "so, what is up with that facial hair? Clearly you are aware that it is there - or have you convinced yourself otherwise?  Even though you look in the mirror from time to time?"  I once met a lady with a little beard - more a cluster of wiry curly chin hairs, they were long and undeniably there, and she was so frank about things in general that I almost asked her, then she did a little speech (this was at a conference) where she made a joke about how uncomfortable her kids were because she wouldn't shave off her chin hairs.  She didn't mention why she didn't get rid of them, but inferred her kids were silly for wanting her to get rid of them.  I suppose it's sort of a feminist act... to... not maintain one's personal grooming?  So what is up with Frida?  Are her 'stache and brow an act of defiance?  I work with a girl with a mustache, and I always wonder, why not... deal with that?  Especially since she is an actor, and not having a mustache would improve her odds.  She is girlie in every other way.

Frida was an avowed communist.  Somehow I think she equated conforming to the general ideal of femininity as terribly bourgeois.

I used to be that way until I noticed how much hairier my unshaven legs were than anyone else's unshaven legs (dang Italian genes).  I mean, you can take these things too far, you know?

LICK Frida Kahlo's eyebrow, LICK, not KICK. I'm blind early in the morning, it seems. NOW I understand the nightmarish component.

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

One of my dear friends, whose maiden name was Mangine, has forearm hair that you could probably style.  She didn't bother with messing with her arms, but had a razor budget for her shins.  She liked wearing stockings, and noone wants to see leg hair swirled up under stockings.
