If your father emails Onstad and asks him too choose a signed, framed strip for you for Christmas, this is the one you'll get.

You're both going to hell. Shut up.

Race ya' there!
semiquaver » neu 6 months ago
You're both assholes. I like you, though. You've got a head on your shoulders. A head that, endowed with a crew cut, would make the base for an excellent table.
paco » neu 1 months ago
Guys, what the fuck. Probably the main moral here is not to be cock to a stranger . . . and look what you all are doing. Wage some fucking peace.
rowboat » pro 2 weeks ago
You're right....you're right. I was a troubled boy all those months ago. I wasn't drinking enough.
donnatron » neu 2 months ago
You could at least capitalize "I" and "I've" when commenting on someone else's mistakes...
jeet » neu 7 months ago
Also not typing out "one".

Twice.

that's a good point, sir

Thank you Ben. I'm so glad the choice was made for me...I would've had a VERY difficult time choosing. I'm new to Achewood, and there are so many golden strips, it hurts my brain to think about it.

blarghamagarky » neu 8 months ago
I got it for my boyfriend one year for Christmas, among other things. I am really good for dating for this reason
onstad » neu 1 years ago
What this guy is saying is true. I implore you to take it as fact.
spinynorman » neu 8 months ago
While it's true no one should be a cock to a stranger, ever, once you get to know a guy you can totally fuck his shit all up.

Familiarity breeds contempt, dog.
semiquaver » neu 6 months ago
Onstad.

Um, hi. For Christmas I would like a pony, an ice cream making machine, a doll with real light-up eyes that flash, a dirigible...

Oh, wait, I got you confused with Santa Claus because you just give us so damn much. I am gonna order the cookbook as soon as I get funds and then I am gonna learn to cook such as recipes, thus making myself more independent and a better romantic prospect and so on. You have probably just chosen my future soulmate and you do not even know it.

i think a better tattoo would be panel 7, on your upper arm, with pans going all in a ring around your arm
luckypyjamas » neu 5 months ago
i mean to say, panel 1 seems a bit busy for a tattoo

soo good

If there was a graph of Achewood, this would be a peak. The boardroom would applaud when the discussion leader revealed it.

"Mom, do you know what its like to see someone die? Also, do you have any Risotto you can fedex me?"
gormster » neu 9 months ago
haha, for a second I thought that said 'fax' not 'fedex'.

i can imagine asking someone to fax me risotto whilst high.

twohundredninety » neu 10 months ago
Oh dude. I meant to give you a chubby for this but accidentally clicked the lame button instead. Sorry about that, dude.

It would be great if there were a way to fix mistakes like that.
deusoma » neu 3 months ago
Update: seven months later, we still can't fix shit like that.

nutmeg » neu 7 months ago
to be honest it more resembles shrooming from what i have heard
jujubeesforjesus » neu 6 months ago
Being very high on marijuana cigarettes can often resemble a light shrooming, especially if you've done the latter often. I've heard.
nutmeg » neu 6 months ago
interesting if true! too bad i've quit the business.
pogo » neu 4 months ago
All depends on how your head works. The more imagination and information, the better.

this is the best strip of all time.

SO, so familliar...
ian » neu 1 years ago
not only do i enjoy this strip but i can also relate to it. that's two things it does
deirdre » neu 1 years ago
i still laugh out loud when i even think about this strip.
molesticide » pro 1 years ago
my input seems excessively unneccessary.

but, damn. i think someone else even already mentioned it, this strip is the best representation of that moment, ten minutes after lightin' up a BIG one, that i have ever seen. i have had thoughts exactly paralleling ray's, albeit suited to my own hallucinatory context.

proprs, onstad- you have demonstrated your familiarity with the subject at hand. i hope that your own mom knows what kind of 'research' you do for your art.

(yeah, that's supposed to be spelled 'props.' but i kind of like the typo- say it out loud.)
andrew_ » pro 1 years ago
I enjoyed saying it out loud
saru » neu 8 months ago
"props" comes from "propers" ie, "proper respect".

no one should be a cock to a stranger ever.

everything jesus could never get across clearly in his time.
fidget » pro 10 months ago
until right this very moment i always thought it said "no one should be a stranger to a cock ever."

hm...
pogo » neu 4 months ago
That's what she said.
goosey » neu 8 months ago
"Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress be a cock to him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt."

Exodus 22:21
gormster » neu 8 months ago
Holy crap that is the actual text of Exodus 22:21. Colour me impressed, even if I am an atheist.
falseprophet » neu 7 months ago
Yes. Right down to the strikethrough.
jstegall » pro 1 years ago
Genius. I LOVE this strip.
sredni » pro 1 years ago
Yeah this really is fantastic. I agree with the 'peak' comment. This strip could easily replace drug education.
hellofditties » neu 4 months ago
Why does this comment have lames directly proportionate to the chubbies of the one below it? Seems they are just making the same point.

this strip has spawned so many inside jokes among those of us in the know...

"Forty-five degrees."

He's right!
tellumo » pro 1 years ago
No, he's forty-five degrees. Right would be ninety degrees.

Oh MAN I cannot believe that I just made that stupid math joke please pay no attention to this horrible man

Excellent comment and avatar synthesis.
huber » neu 1 years ago
Everytime I read this strip drug use follows shortly after....

I think its difficult to say whether this is the best strip or not - but its got to be in the top 10.
eviltkat » pro 1 years ago
This strip contains more life lessons than an episode of Mister Rogers. It should be posted in every classroom.
taynt » pro 1 years ago
I quote this strip frequently, and sadly few people know what the hell I'm talking about. I really love the "That's Todd. I know him." part.

I've been reading religiously since the first 10 strips, and this is by far the best one.
stayawaystars » neu 1 years ago
I KNOW TODD.
thegoodwillgirl » pro 4 months ago
Agreed.
"I know Todd", being in its own panel, is what makes me change my rating on this strip from a 5 to an unattainable 94.6.
rosie » neu 1 years ago
When I purchase a signed, framed strip, this is gonna be it. I printed this one out and taped it to my refrigerator because it makes me laugh so hard. "Forty-five degrees."

Today a stranger was a cock to me and did not wage peace.

Yes, I just typed the alt text to this strip from memory. That is how much this strip means to me.

Also, my name is Todd.

I'm sorry. You must get that a lot.

I know what it is like to see someone die. It is like finding yourself balanced on the very edge of a deep canyon.

What's sad is that I don't need to be stoned to think these things.
