He's not exactly buried, hes got hella chubbies
greyfield » neu 1 years ago
But a comment like that by anyone else would have gotten no lames and perhaps even more chubbies.

I'm not saying everything asherdan produces is gold, but the man can't catch a break.
soticoto » neu 1 weeks ago
Apparently he also can't make a single decent post without it immediately becoming a conversation about his lame-count and his not catching a break.

chubby supportive reply for asherdan!
drago25 » pro 2 years ago

ferdinand » neu 2 years ago

Oh god, that reminds me of my old huge stuffed bear (it looked more like a real bear than your standard toy bear, and I could sit in the goddamn thing's lap when I first got it).

My cousin and I were playing Hide the Bear, and he stuffed it in the oven and it got grease all over it. I've had the thing since I was like two, I was devastated!

But it washed off in the end and it turned out ok. :)
Also I don't really know why I posted this story at all but I do know that I need to take a trip to the attic for a bearhug.
gumfish » pro 2 years ago
It's not as huge as I remember it but I guess back then I was two years old and now I am two metres tall.
It's still got this kind of weight to it that just makes you want to throw it about and oh god I need to go get a blog or something
professorhazard » neu 2 years ago
That weight is all thanks to dust mites.
woodenteeth » neu 2 years ago
Dust mites wriggling through the Bear, the Bear looking like it's moving toward gumfish for that hug, gumfish totally ecstatic and horribly afraid at the same time...
unsentletter » pro 2 years ago
... "gumfish?!" Er... what is this, then?
professorhazard » neu 2 years ago
That would be the dude with the jumping Mario avatar.
gumfish » neu 2 years ago
See, if you're chewing gum and blow a bubble, and it sort of looks like a pufferfish...
gournal » neu 8 months ago
oh my gosh i can't stop laughing at all the things you are saying
spicyponyhead » neu 1 years ago
Unlike your spelling skills.
cagliostro » neu 1 years ago
I know it was 'immaculate', but I really want it to have been either 'emasculate' or 'ejaculate'. M and J are right next to each other!
cuddlefish » neu 3 years ago
I've had to utter the words in times of stress

'Horrible things are happening for no reason!'
deancain29 » neu 3 years ago
Teodor's critique is priceless
stuart » neu 2 years ago
This was my review of Happy Tree Friends.
mygoodfriend » neu 2 years ago
No it is for "naturally".
professoryes » pro 2 years ago
"I'll be in the oven."
stuart » neu 2 years ago
Yeah, I just noticed that. What the hell?
audhumla » pro 2 years ago
Cornelius has a gas oven, and he is going to Kill himself
professoryes » neu 2 years ago
A gas oven. That's pretty hardcore.
professorhazard » neu 2 years ago
Not to mention Old School.
soticoto » neu 2 years ago
If a gas oven is "Old School" then what the hell is a coal-fire stove?
professorhazard » neu 2 years ago
Pre-School.
tellumo » pro 2 years ago
winner.
foetus_punch » neu 1 years ago
I have a gas oven, and one time my younger brother crawled inside it when I was in the room. I figured he'd e fine. The only reason he is still alive is because my mom came in about three seconds later.
trollcollins » neu 2 years ago
Know Your Plath!
gunsofray » neu 1 years ago
i laughed so hard i choked.
invidious » neu 1 years ago
Cornelius is taking the Plath of least resistance.

(I will relish each and every lame I get for that, and rub them all over my body. I don't care. I had to say it.)
fattypneumonia » pro 11 months ago
DAMN, Alexei! What WON'T you say?!? (chubbied)
bozendoka » pro 1 years ago
My exact thought. Definitely 5.
jack » pro 2 years ago
I like to think that the "the drill" includes both Teodor's critique and Mr. Bear's suicide attempt. Like he could just hand it over and say "you know where to find me." After T reads, he goes to gently turn off the gas and let Cornelius sleep off his shame.

I have yet to witness a fortunate beagle micturation.
geozimmdrake » neu 2 years ago
that beagle is a son of a bitch.
doomchild » neu 2 years ago
Pedantry does not become you, sir.

woodenteeth » neu 2 years ago
5. For "I'll be in the oven". First time my 3 year Lit degree actually came in handy. Which is mostly depressing because the sentence that read "She killed herself by placing her head into a stove" only took a second or two to read.
jlynes » neu 2 years ago
Sylvia Plath.

Crazier than all the Bronte sisters added together.
achilleselbow » neu 2 years ago
Can anyone tell the exact disease described?
relaxing » neu 2 years ago
HPV

of the ear
heccibiggs » neu 2 years ago
WHY DID I GOOGLE THAT

AND MORE IMPORTANTLY WHY DID I FORGET THAT I HAD TURNED SAFESEARCH OFF
relaxing » neu 2 years ago
please tell me there are not in fact cases of hpv of the ear
heccibiggs » neu 2 years ago
I didn't know what HPV was, so that's all I Googled. I didn't stick around long enough to check everywhere, but I did see it of the hand... So I guess the ear is just a feasible.
zhankfor » neu 1 years ago
Chubby for inadequate sex education.
cagliostro » neu 1 years ago
How strangely appropriate.
projectiles » pro 2 years ago
téodor is sympathetic to the girl's plight.
woodenteeth » neu 2 years ago
favourite avatar EVER, this and the dancing T-Rex
cpnglxynchos » neu 1 years ago
the synergy is ridiculous.
woodenteeth » neu 1 years ago
Hah! I hadn't thought... nice.
salvar » pro 2 years ago
I enjoy the fact that it is not made clear precisely what Tom was doing. He leaves it all up to the reader's filthy, filthy mind.
I tried Googling for a definition of "mincturations", but it just suggested that I might want to search for "menstruation" instead.
lechatbotte » neu 2 years ago
Try "micturation" or "micturition". But I'll save ya' the trip: It's just a fancy Brit way of saying urination or pissing.

Point of Trivia: It is actually the source of the phrase "taking a mickey" (taking the micturations), and was thus the penultimate source of "slipping a mickey".

Needless to say (and yet here I am saying it!), Father's annoyance at finding her reading his woas will not be improved by the sudden awareness that he is standing in a rather smelly swamp of beagle piss.

Not to mention why I've always found "Mickey" Mouse to be an unusually amusing name....
cpnglxynchos » neu 1 years ago
...so what exactly is a Micky Finn??
tekende » neu 1 years ago
This strip makes me feel weird. Kind of a milder version of the way I felt as I watched terrible things happen to Ben Stiller in Meet the Parents.
spicyponyhead » neu 1 years ago
Does it make you feel weird in your Area?
tekende » neu 1 years ago
It's more like in my stomach.
lucid » neu 11 months ago
I, too, tend to feel icky about comedy that derives from a person having horrible things occur to them for no reason.

That and comedy that derives from horribly contrived awkward circumstances.
aaron_haynes » pro 1 years ago
A lot of Harry Potter has this same theme in mind.
theguitarhero » neu 1 years ago
Looking back on this, I don't understand what Chris was getting at. Does he not like Lemony Snicket? If not, that is a shame because I'm sure the two would get along great, even though one is fictional.
mctanuki » neu 1 years ago
I thought both Onstad and Cornelius could have done much, much better. But then, parody of parody is a very difficult game to play, I suppose.
carlyle » neu 1 years ago
Heh!
