you failed twice.. you're a cock, let the man correct himself. allow thine modular parametres to adjust, aka check yosef befo you wreck yosef SUCKA

It's loosely based off of Bullet Tooth Tony's monologue from Snatch.

Team America reference? I don't know dude, that's just barely better than quoting Family Guy on here.

Or am I wrong? This is possible.

It's like a game of rock paper scissor, but everyone loses except for the dicks!

You're not the boss of me! Chubby!

What's really funny is that the alt text has been changed, and this comment streak no longer makes sense.

...and now I'm the only one that doesn't make sense.

Stay tuned for further updates!

OR CAN YOU? dun dun dun DUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Aw, it doesn't cost six hundo to fix the "main horn area". Prolly less than fifty would be fine.

i am fond on 'hunjie bag' for a hundred

although i am australian, perhaps this is a thing

So am I, and I could probably never bring myself to say that. Crikey, that's weird.

Man, a hunjie bag is five sticks of weed in a ziploc.

Where do you live that they still sell weed on sticks?

The county fair in Northern California, maybe?

I'm Australian, and when I was a kid there were these trees that had these seeds that used to itch like hell when someone would put them down your shirt or whatever - we called them "itchy bombs."

Years later I moved to Japan, where the equivalent of a hundo is the 10,000yen bill, which people call an ichiman.

Anyway, I used to call ichimans itchy bombs and sometimes when I had a wad of them that I was spending freely I would say "I'm droping itchy bombs tonight, baby."

I think it's more like "a six hundo" is one unit of guilt.. two steps on the instrument would warrant "a seventeen hundo", not just double the monetary value but with an added measure. "A seventeen hundo" is the kind of gift you have to get someone when you accidentally sleep with their sister.

cunning

stunt

First no-contest 5 for me in a while. This comic means business

How come all of Ray's previous six hundo level mistakes involve damaged musical instruments? Is that a threshold?

I would blame Philippe first and then Lyle

Six hundred dollars mends even the most severe of wounds, but it's best not to err too often with your friends, because that shit costs money.

or try www.apologies4men.com.

ps. it is not a Good website.

Listen, I need to borrow some money.

this strip made me smile so good that it went all the way round and turned a frown into of it :|| sweet-assed travail onstad take a knee (a knee)

never say lame

Except his magical tard savant power is not math but partying.

If that is a tuxedo that ray is wearing in strip 5, then this is my favourite strip ever.

I know people are feeling like Ray's getting overexposed but how can you not love this

Knowing "Connie", it's probably a handmade antique. These horns are not modular.

Yeah, parts of them are modular but I'm pretty sure that the main horn area is not. I still don't think it would cost $600 to buff it out though.

haha, Freedom Horn... yes.

Surely the thing to do would be to buy Beef an iPhone.

Then again, he'd probably hate it because everyone else likes it. He's a bit of a snob that way.

He has expressed heavy disdain for Apple Products before. "looks like they got jeff goldblum writin' the ads and the os... talk about a computer which basically has AIDs."

Definitely. Beef's holding out for Android.

As am I.

is it everything you hoped for?

hilarious.

Six hundred bucks might buy Cornelius a french horn casebut serious horns start at about three grand. On the other hand, Teo's guitar was likely a pawn shop find, so he's have plenty left over.

High school CPR class was always weird with those plastic dolls with the gaping mouths and the pump in their chests. I mean, who knows what those creepy instructors were doing with those dummies just 20 minutes prior to class....

And that's why it's good we can't give CPR via genitalia.

Among other reasons.

Yeah, it's a shame the intercostal muscles don't extend into the pubic area.

This an all-new perspective on the queef.

...Boned?

I love that you're seeing his thought bubble... and then the captions at the bottom seem to be inner dialogue as well. He's having a thought WITHIN a thought. Ray is a thinkin man

I thought that was The Author, Elucidating.

It was Edward Gorey, sneaking into the comic from beyond the grave.

chubby just for your siffle and ollie pic. rock!

Way to cite precedent, dude!

"...but I did."

How great is it that he's looking down at it like a scolded child. A child with 6 hundred dollars to give.

in high school the same thing happened to my trumpet and i would say it cost the guy about six hundo to fix

Tut, you shouldn't have left it under a towel in the bathroom.

Ray's gonna pay the same amount for life-long torture as he does for broken instruments? He may wanna double this to twel'hundo.

it is hoped that horns are modular. OH YES!!!

So satire is now officially DEAD.

I think that is the single worst achewood write-up I've ever read.

Agreed.

While reading it, I was imagining a voicing not unlike what Sidney Yamahata would use for an editorial piece on KACW News. Flamboyant, hopelessly contrived, with an overwhelming sense of cheap production.

ARRRRGH. The set of those who read Entertainment Weekly and that of those who read Achewood should be disjoint. (No lame for you, though, because I imagine you got it from some blog of decent repute.)

It's like Roast Beef's well-being is a musical instrument, and Ray's accident snapped its strings. Or perhaps Ray just thinks so lowly of Beef that monetary compensation is better than an honest apology.

I don't see it as Ray thinking lowly of Beef, but instead that he has a fucked up view of the world. Huck Finn loved and respected Jim, but he still thought that giving him money would eliminate any problems.

Yeah, ol' fuckin Moneybags Finn.

Compared to Jim, Huck might as well have been a banker.

so the other day at work, i was writing out a check for a beer vendor, and the total was six hundred and something bucks. i almost, completely unconsciously, wrote "six hundo."

Is this some sort of multi-alt-text-experiment? A multexperaltment? Because it looks to me like a bunch of tiny POST-ITs gawd damn it!

Actually, the French horn is probably considerably more than a six hundo.
So many dollars, those.
Also, I can't imagine that Cornelius would leave his horn out like that.
Lyle. *shudder*

i used to play one of those horns

Gets a 5 for "six hundo" having entered the daily lexicon of my girlfriend and I.

This is my all-time favourite Achewood strip. The number of times I've wanted to use "done it up with Christmas lights and a pony"... The "Six Hundred Dollars" two-panel sub-explanation, and finally, "It is hoped that horns are modular." That's one I'd like to use at meetings.

Coworker: We missed our deadline and the client's seriously pissed, but we can give him a 10% discount now to assuage him and then overbill him on the next project.

Me: It is hoped that horns are modular.

Coworker: What?

anyone else been referencing this strip a lot since they got their $600 stimulus check?

ME.
(I AM)

Class.

Money.

The narration box is unusually invested in this strip. Maybe Ray done it a six hundo type wrong once too.

Fortunately many horns ARE modular.

Ray has a habit of smashing instuments.

My mother gave me six hundred dollars once.....she IS a classy lady
