"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

Howaaaayver -- 12/9/08

I assume the antler is for Mr. Bear's side of the bed and the dove's nest for the lady, but who knows with Vlad.  Who knows.

Dap.

Are we sure this is Vlad, and not Lie Bot in disguise?

I can only take so much Vlad lately. Maybe if he busts out another "worst song played on ugliest guitar" catchphrase I'll change my tune.

He's basically just Foreign Man and Tony Clifton smooshed together into one character.

I have recently acquired a Russian as a coworker.  This has enhanced my interior Vlad voice considerably.

Golumpki appears to be an English-phonetic spelling of gołąbki, which are Polish cabbage rolls.

"Dap"? "Nine ball hundo on the rail"? Usually I am "down" with Mr. Onstad's "street cred", but today I am just befuddled. I had to search Wikipedia for forty minutes just  to find out if Ray and Vlad were terror fist-bumping in the second-to-last panel, or if it was some other form of urban communication (Wikipedia finally listed the maneuver as a "freestyle jazz penny", but I think I may have inaccurately entered my search terms.)

Anyway, translations please?

My brain was trying very hard to make "nine ball hundo on the rail" into a cocaine phrase.  Thank you.

I wouldn't have understood had it not been for the blog series about Cornelius just destroying Ray at pool, but Ray continuing to bet large sums on the games.
