Ray's Dad has some serious respect for Roast Beef.

He knows that Roast Beef has been the heart and soul to his boy, a heart and soul that he could never and would never want to be. A father is not a friend a father should, at best, suceed in showing his son exactly how much life is going to beat the shit out of him.

Confederates = Democrats
The Union = Republicans

Oh how things have changed.
tekende » con 1 years ago
chuvak: No. You are incorrect. The Democrats did not "champion racial equality" until the late 1960s--in fact, the Civil Rights Act was passed by a majority of Republicans, while a small majority of Democrats actually voted against it.

But really, today's Republican and Democrat parties are absolutely nothing like they were back in the 1800s, or even the mid-1900s. The two parties have only had their current identities for about forty years, and they're still changing all the time.
kendieatsbabies » neu 1 years ago
The small number of Democrats that you speak of were the Southern Democrats -- the ones who changed parties because of the Civil Rights movement. Before this, neither party was really "championing" anything of the sort. So, both your points kinda feed into each other, and no one is actually incorrect.

A quick note: clarifying the American political climate so close to an apparent entrance of The Man with the Blood on His Hands feels kind of weird. I mean, your post was spot on, but I was still thinking about a beer bottle cleanly aerating Carl Veidt's head when an image of the National Mall, packed end to end with people clamoring for change marched in and started making demands. The end result was a brief montage of fairly violent images involving the many ways Al Sharpton would have his ass handed to him by the rawest cat to sport Versace sunglasses.

It was more than a little jarring.

a_horde_of_orcs » neu 1 years ago
That is a very shallow and ultimately inaccurate assessment of the state of American electoral politics from the pre-Civil War period to the present. Even the Republican party of old was an uneasy coalition of anti-slavery Whigs, scary northern industrial/ financial interests and various war profiteers whose alliance with the abolitionist cause was opportunistic. IMHO these 'conservative' interests have been in undisputed control of the party since William McKinley won the nomination.

And the Democratic Party has had a liberal-populist streak long before Lyndon Johnson finally and completely alienated it's southern cracker constituency. Thus it cannot be said that there is a 'liberal' and a 'conservative' faction' that simply switch names over the years.

I'm not too sure about this bowling thing though. It seems to me that the non-achewood character most likely to get a strike bowling a camera is Fred Flintstone. I don't like to think of Ramses Luther Smuckles doing something that Fred Flintstone would do.

Considering that Ramses Luther Smuckles only exists in Achewood I don't see how he can be referred to as a non-achewood character.

He bowled as strike with a camera because he is extremely badass.

senister » neu 1 years ago
ahhhhhhhh........

see what severe sleep deprivation does to you?
featurelessvoid » neu 1 years ago
I think there's another reason why he bowled a strike with the camera. In so doing, he broke the pattern of "damage people when disappointed" by substituting "damage consumer goods when disappointed." That's important because it allows an interpretation of the last panel that world fortify his reputation (he's about to smash the KitchenAid into countless tiny shards of plastic and shame) rather than tainting his legend (he's about to hit the Crate and Barrel lady).

In any case, I like to think that he bowled the strike by casually tossing the camera backward over his shoulder as he walked out the door, never even pausing to look back at the pins. That's the way of the badass.

Yes, but instead of twinkling his toes ala Fred Flinstone he would punch the ground repeatedly and then throw the ball down the lane. I don't know how he would manage to pummel the earth while bowling a strike at the same time but that is how I like to imagine it happening anyways. The floor would then say it was very sorry and would begin waxing itself immediately.
fireking » neu 1 years ago
Well, see, Flintstone would un-gentlemanly throw the camera at the pins. Ramses Luther Smuckles would have "bowled" the camera by sending it right down the gutter where it belongs, and the ten pins would have done the gentlemanly thing and fallen as a show of respect.
pyromancer » pro 1 years ago
It might be pertinent that rather than bowling the camera, he "bowled" the camera.
invidious » neu 1 years ago
Please realize that this whole "bowl the camera" thing was just Ramses gettin' justifiably pissed at the slight put upon him by the bowling alley staff.

You see, for the average person, bowling a perfect, 300 game is a major accomplishment. Such an accomplishment is usually honored with polaroid pictures, plaques, and cheesy mafioso/graduation-style rings purchased out of a catalog.

For a man as raw as Ramses Luther Smuckles, however, bowling a perfect game is about as difficult as putting on a pair of pants. Insulted that the other people in the alley would think that a task SO EASY would be an accomplishment for HIM, he disdainfully threw the camera at the pins. Of course they all went down. It was Ramses' way of saying, "Boys, your game here ain't worth shit; I just came in here because I was thirsty and am doing this to pass the time while knockin' back some cold ones."

PHILIPPE TIMES Friday Facts!

Police Blotter

June 14

East Achewood %u2013 An elementary school teacher reported that several of her students returned from recess holding cards, with dirty statements such as FUK U SHTFASE and LIKK MY DOODY DADDY scribbled on them. Their mothers were promptly called so don't worry.

Downtown Achewood %u2013 There's a guy wearing dirty clothes and with corn kernels for teeth always in the city and people know him because he's the guy who always says the world is going to end soon and everyone ignores him because they don't want to be sad. He's usually scared about it but this time he was really scared but no one knows what made him feel that way. He suddenly jumped up on a water fountain and started peeing into it while reciting the dictionary.

Achewood Mental Hospital %u2013 A big kid who likes to ride through town on a motorcycle has been having really bad headaches so some friends of his in the Army told him to have naptime there for a few days. He woke up in the middle of the night because of a really bad nightmare and the nurses tried to give him his pills, but his latent psychokinetic powers awoke and he blew up the whole area. He was last seen flying through the sky screaming TOMORROW HAS MADE A PHONE CALL TO TODAY. A lot of kids missed their bedtime.

Just a theory:

It's somewhat clear that one of the men who drove the GOF 4WDrives had an arm band just like Ramses (suggesting he was one of the drivers). All 4Wdrives were beaten down by Beef and Ray. I would very much hope that this beat-down will explain Ramses' respect.

I also hope he brings it up with Beef after his second bottle of Christian Brothers, almost-cries, then disappears. I imagine this would boost Beefs flagging self-esteem a little.
earendil » neu 1 years ago
I'm sorry, but even the sharp-bodied, sharper-minded team of Ray and Beef could not take down Ramses Luther Smuckles. We all saw the way that he cowed them into submission with the mere power of his presence. If he had been driving one of the jeeps, I don't think either of them would still be alive.

Plus, I'm pretty sure that he approved of their conduct; if he had been upset that Ray and Beef broke the rules of the GOF, I don't think he would have shown up to grace them with his presence after the fight.

While Crate and Barrel is higher end than Macy's going against the registry is something an upstanding and overtly violent man such as Mr. Smuckles (is it Mr.? or does he have a knighthood or some minor title in another country acquired on his travels that we have yet to hear about) would NOT do.

It%u2019s just freaking impolite.

I don't think he's the type of fella who's aware of things like "registries". The man likes bread. He likes machines that serve their purpose unflinchingly. He likes things that are stirred. What, you don't like bread?

How can you mail an invitation to a drifting asskicker, coasting from town to town, leaving shame and served up asses in his wake? He wouldn't know about the Macy's.
sharpdresseddan » neu 1 years ago
I think that it is more likely that Ramses was simply drifting in the general direction of California when word of Beef's wedding was passed to him by various contacts. His self-invitation is a whim of his. And it will not be denied.

I read "temperature" as "temperance" the first time through. Try it, it's just as funny! It may be a sign that I care too much about beer.

You just reminded me of my family Christmases. Every year my father would stand and hold his wine up and make his traditional Christmas toast, "To temperance".

I do love Achewood.

But as a Floridian and Honda Civic driver, I can't help but feel I am unwanted here.

I understand that is like the intersection of trashy, tastelessness (in popular perception anyway) and emasculated practicality, and the opposite of what these characters value, but still, it hurts.

A friend of mine made a good point. He said that he'd think it'd be interesting if Phillipe's mom came to town and was also in the police blotter, but the inverse of what we've been seeing. Like reports of a middle-aged female otter being swindled and robbed repeatedly. An example he thought of was the police blotter reporting that a middle-aged female otter reported her car missing after she loaned it to a stranger and he didn't return for three hours.
johnmatrix » neu 1 years ago
"A middle-aged female otter was found unconscious on a sidewalk in downtown Achewood. When revived by paramedics, the otter reported she saw a man spit on the sidewalk, and when she adomnished him, he responded with 'dreadful cusses,' causing her to faint."
hedonismbot » neu 1 years ago
"When she hit the ground, she received a tremendous head wound. Her skull was fractured, and paramedics took almost a half hour to stop the bleeding. Standard ambulances were all out helping victims of the recent mysterious beatdown, so a bunny-ambulance was borrowed from the nearby rabbit underground. The bunnies were happy to help, but became furious when they found out the otter had got hot blood everywhere, some even inside the hare."

Thank you and goodnight.

growing up we had the Kitchenaid mixer but Mom never made anything that required the hook. It was SO frustrating. I wanted to see what it could do.

aw man you were missing out, one time I made scones in like 6 minutes using that hook

thorfinn » neu 1 years ago
The dough hook doesn't do anything really special, I've made cookie dough with it a few times, but that's about it. Be extremely careful if you ever get the pasta maker attachment I made the dough exactly to their recommendations, and tried to run it through the pasta maker, and it wouldn't go through, so I started pushing it through with the little stick that comes with the attachment. This caused the screw mechanism that pushes the dough through to stop turning, and the tab that holds the attachments broke off, causing the pastamaker to spin around wildly throwing pasta dough around the kitchen. My mom then got the idea to grab the pasta maker attachment to stop it from spinning, and since it could not spin the attachment or the parts inside, the mixer flipped over, smashed the butter dish, and cracked the counter. So, if you ever get the Kitchenaid pasta maker attachment, put more water in the dough than the recipe recommends, or you risk destroying your kitchen.

Can you come over to my house some time and make dinner? Would you mind pretending someone else is your mother while you're doing it? It might even be Wanda Sykes!

Ah, Kitchenaid... What wedding gift registry would be complete without the ultimate middle-class kitchen trophy?

(It is a damn good mixer, though... It's pretty, but it's not only pretty...)
i_love_kate » neu 1 years ago
I find it incongruous that a minor... even background character here has been given a full illustration. That rarely ever happens. Look at a recent instance, the air stewardess. Never really shown at all.

Could this Crate and Barrel assistant have a greater future than we expect?

On the other hand, the two policemen in the Boffin arc were drawn.

Hold you fire, folks, it's just another unscreened theory.
