Onstad didn't even pre-announce this one!

The second newspaper is scarily accurate, given my experience with these things.

At least stad hasn't forgotten what made achewood great: abandoning cool, fascinating storylines. The man is a dadaist cocktease.

My daddy never told me to look out for the no-good titty-lickers.  Man, this must be why I felt so unprepared for life.

In Portland, homeless folks buy Street Roots for a quarter and sell it for a dollar. They hang out around various places of business in my neighborhood. It's a pretty nice alternative to just accosting people and begging them for money.

As for the comic . . . I wonder if he's in Street Roots. He's not in the Merc anymore (other than the three food reviews that are going to end up getting printed).

The depressed cat is concerned that he will offend a street cat if he refuses to buy the newspaper the street cat is selling.  The depressed cat has a mistaken impression regarding the publication's contents.

I would like you to translate all instances of the comic in this fashion.

I'm not good at this, but it kind of feels like how Achewood would be if it were written by a cross between Chekhov and Hemingway.

Frankly I'd rather just give them a few bucks than buy something I don't want and am just going to throw away.

I don't know - the thing I like about street roots is that they invest in it. It costs them money to do it. I'm sure it's naive and simplistic of me, but I'd rather see that than some dude with a smoke and a dog talking about how he just needs X dollars to get something to eat or whatever.

Is the product worth the investment though? I used to buy the street newspapers once in a while, but I gave it up when one of the issues I bought had a two page article on how the government is lying to us about chemtrails. I'd much rather just give a dude a dollar and have him spend the whole dollar however he likes, than to give him seventy-five cents that he can spend however he likes, and twenty-five cents for an article about chemtrails.

I've never seen anyone selling our local "Street Connections" paper, however I know who writes it and I get it emailed to me on the regular.  Ours is written more for street people (mostly directed at sex trade workers), but I'm thinking the thing Onstad is refering to is a paper written by street people?  If so, we don't have that sort of a paper.  Ours has a "bad johns" report and I always have to steel myself before reading it.  I ask myself "do I want to know how awful the world is today?"  Sometimes the answer is "no."  Yikes, we are still not even kinda close to gender equality out my way.
