There are times we are not in agreement catachresis, but this is not one of them.

Ray was only looking out for Pat's self-interest...
zefiel » neu 2 years ago
Wearing a cape is SO bad that Ray will even care enough for Pat to tell him not to do it.
perhapsmaybe » neu 2 years ago
I agree much, this whole nice pat arch is one of my favs
slalvation » neu 2 years ago
That is what I told my friend on the phone when I read that panel. I hadn't read any of the others yet but I told her.
luckypyjamas » neu 2 years ago
and pat is so happy to hear him say this

it makes for an excellent segue into his new mission in life
drago25 » neu 2 years ago
My sentiments exactly. chubby.
aliiis » neu 1 years ago
Yes and also the shock lines around his head when he spots the faux pas. Just looking out of the window, checking to make sure nobody's wearing a cape... I feel that sadly this strip goes downhill after the first two panels, not because the others are bad, but simply because those two are just so absolutely god damn perfect.

I bet Ray held the "contemplative Ray pose" all the way from his house window to his recording studio window.
slab64 » neu 2 years ago
I love that pose!
apocowarg » pro 2 years ago
Pausing only to switch arms.
gigs » neu 1 years ago
No, that's still his left arm(at least, it seems that way to me). He just switched which way he's facing the 'camera'.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present:

ah goddamn comment board script, erasing extra spaces, ruining my art
nbgreene » neu 2 years ago
yes, but think about the anarchy that would ensue if we could do spaces!

You inspired me to fire up the old License Plate Maker and make such a plate. Behold!

I would get so mad rutty in a car with that licence plate. Maybe even second base...
rowboat » pro 2 years ago
That's probably just as well. Based on the few people I've known who may be inclined to buy such a plate, I'd have to assume that he would be curled into a ball on the floorboard and sobbing before you could get anywhere near third base. That is, unless you were dressed as Arwen Evenstar. But in that case, it'd probably be over way too soon, anyway.

I'm leaning more towards Galadriel...mainly because I want reason to yell "All shall love me and despair!"

Samus Aran would also be pretty sweet.

I'LL BE THE FIRST TO ADMIT...I HAVE A HUGE CRUSH ON LIVE TYLER
charchar » pro 2 years ago
As do we all.
mattylite » pro 2 years ago
I'm assuming you, just as I, meant LIV tyler. Live Tyler, I think, is gonna be the title of the album Steven Tyler puts out in 2031, after the rest of Aerosmith is dead. Despite a cover of "Sweet Emotion" using synthesizers made out of substances that don't yet exist, I don't imagine I will have a huge crush on Live Tyler. No, I don't imagine so at all.
charchar » pro 2 years ago
Well, there's always dead Tyler. Not my thing but you know, I'm not here to judge.

Pat writes songs about injustice, like how he doesn't get to park in handicapped spaces even though everyone knows he has a bum knee.
never_die » neu 2 years ago
i would listen to Pat Reynolds.

I once knew a dude who wore a cape. A lot of our interations could be summed up by the first three panels minus the bunny and with more cheetos.
samorama » pro 2 years ago
I had a dream this morning that I was getting married but instead of a dress I wore part of a tuxedo, a long skirt and a cape. I kept delaying the wedding for some reason. Could this have been inspired by the latest arc?
factorial » neu 2 years ago
Pet rabbit. 5.
epicurus » pro 2 years ago
A lot of people need for panel 2 to happen to them.
tekende » pro 2 years ago
Like Superman.
echidnaboy » pro 2 years ago
There are three types of people who can get away with wearing a cape. If you either:
a) have a throne
b) can fly
c) are Rick Wakeman
you can get away with it. For everyone else, capes are probably a no-no.
phthoggos » neu 2 years ago
Rick Wakeman is actually all 3
charchar » neu 2 years ago
I have a cape; it is purple and spakly and matches my wand. These were seperate gifts from seperate people. I fear I may have become predictable.

See, THIS is more like it. Though honestly, I think it would be even funnier if the whole strip was just the first two panels.

Ray looks scared in pannel 4. Scared of a world where Pat isn't a dick. If that happens, then Roast beef will be the new Ray, and Ray will be forced to be Roast Beef.

"Nice Pat" has a certain ring to it.
greenkoolayd » neu 8 months ago
nice pat and nice pete.

it's a good thing to listen to "peace train" while reading this strip. it ain't the byrds, but it endorses their messages of love and respect

Yesterday I was in the kitchen making Jello and my dad was clicking through the channels on the satellite. Suddenly, I heard the voice of Tim Gunn.
"Dad! Don't watch Project Runway!"
biznart » neu 1 years ago
Pat doesn't even argue Ray's assertion that (prior to the electrocution of his dick) he was the biggest asshole Ray knows.
carlyle » neu 11 months ago
Did Pat bring Hollandaise into the recording studio, or is Ray looking out for him in the other room.
kingcrimson » pro 7 months ago
It is awesome how in the last panel, Pat is writing music against greed, which is being greedily exploited by Ray. How true to life.
art-vader » neu 7 months ago
Pat´s mission is to spread niceness through the world. It stands to reason you can only achieve this with a costume including a cape. How else would you do it?
