It is good jail-bra licking etiquette to offer the unused cup to your friends.
atmus » neu10 months ago
I like to believe that Lyle sticks his pinky out while lifting the cup.
lolcatdeluxe » neu10 months ago
Perhaps Chris will update it just for you.
I doubt it though Lyle thinks Cornelus' car shoots a doily onto parking spaces, so I think Lyle is an established Philistine. That and he douches his balls in the salad bowl.
atmus » neu10 months ago
I also imagined he was doing it to mock Corneleus.
That seems like something Lyle would do.

No, this is something Lyle would do:

Watching TV is the opposite of licking a bra you found that might have touched a boob.

who am i kidding, lyle doesn't wear condoms
lateadopter » neu10 months ago
He could sell them, thereby generating more money for booze. He might sell them to Philippe as balloons, but in that case he would most likely save the step of washing them.
twohundredninety » neu10 months ago
Unless his plan was to find a way to get Philippe to stick money in them.
Although I doubt Lyle spends much cash at places that would really care what you've done to the bills.

The tiger prefers this to television.
mortshire » pro10 months ago
In highlighting the stuffed tiger's preference to suckle a bra of unknown affiliation rather than engage in the socially more acceptable activity of watching television, is Onstad subtly "ripping on" the quality of today's "TV," condemning the the culture at large which is responsible for both the decline of the visual medium and underwear fetishization, or did he just want to convey to his audience, through the distorted prism that is Acheworld, that licking bras is awesome, 'cause it's almost certainly been on TITS, man.

I didn't stop laughing until I forced myself to stop laughing because it hurt.
Onstad is first and foremost a superb humorist. Social commentary is just spice for the meat.
Thanks Chris!

I think it's neat how you can glean so much about a person's intellect and character from which day's comic strips they liked.
That must help you out a lot in life. (Like when you get into fights with people on the internet about how much you liked a comic strip)
lastlarf » neu10 months ago
Ray buying weird shit on eBay has been done quite a lot, I can give you that, but it was still funny. Phillipe struggling with simple tasks or concepts due to being five/possibly retarded, also a common occurence, but also still funny. Lyle being dirty is a well established character trait, but this is a new, and funny low for him. I don't see the problem. Onstad is working with the characters he has, doing what they do. What do you want? New characters and ridiculous events constantly happening like in a Sitcom that knows it is becoming stale?
straw » pro10 months ago
Well, maybe it's more in the line that they're not really shocking developments of the character. Phillipe's struggles somehow fell flat with me, even though all the apparent elements were there, and today's felt like the b-side to the vomitting on a football, a classic. Ray's strip was immense because of the final frame, however. But that may be due to Ray being a much more developed character. Granted, when I'm "disappointed" in a strip in the ways I've pointed out, it usually means giving it a 3 instead of a 4. 1s and 2s are inherently lame and, like 5s, must be completely deserving.
(Even though all of these strips are about Teodor, essentially; all the different ways he attempts and occasionally fails to interact with the people around him. In this way is Onstad is cleverly developing his character in a fairly original way, as far as webcomics go.)

Agreed. Academically, this isn't Achewood at its best, clearly, but fuck it all if it ain't the funniest goddamned strip of the year.
straw » neu10 months ago
From the academic side, I'm not too sure that this, as a part of the previous two strips, isn't some of Achewood's better offerrings as I've described to lastlarf. I, personally, didn't find it extremely funny (frankly, it was the Alt-Text for reasons I haven't yet committed intellectual analysis to), but when I stepped back and looked at the relationships this strip had with this week's other strips, it enriched this particular strip more.
lastlarf » neu10 months ago
Teodor is sure having an odd week, even by Achewood standards.

Pubescent males are more likely to lactate than males of other ages. Except for babies. A mother's hormone levels can produce a baby that lactates shortly after birth.
So it's either; a cracked out whore's milk, pubescent boy's milk, cracked out pubescent boy's milk, uncracked out whore's milk, babies milk, or crack baby milk. For the baby milk scenario one must create a likely course of events. Lactating baby kept in a bra used as a sling during a daring crack whore robbery?

Stellar. Did anyone else notice that each panel after the first could serve as the punchline? A lesser strip would have stopped after the first giggle, but no, Lyle is going to keep on pushing that button. With his tongue.
Panels 1 & 2 alone would make for a nice minimalist strip, though.
coldfrog » neu10 months ago
Nah, you NEED him to explain the logic. Pretty solid in my opinion.

Good concept!
Sort of like how the merkin strip could have done without the last panel (it was sort of an unnecessary denouement).
straw » neu10 months ago
I disagree. I thought the final panel in the merkin strip was a fantastic punchline. Teodor can't believe that Ray's game is so bad that in his desperation he would end up misunderstandingly buying an antique merkin. And then the alt text just hits it out of the park.
straw » pro10 months ago
In fact, I just laughed harder at this strip having mentally eliminated all but the first two panels. Good form, sir. Good form indeed.
drskradley » neu10 months ago
It looks like Lyle's licking the outside of the cup. This is ineffective if he wants to lick where tits have been.

"A Bra." is the best title.
randombeing » neu10 months ago
Maybe four or five times a year, I'll read an Achewood strip that has me giggling by the second or third panel. Each successive panel has a cumulative effect on the giggles, and then by the end of the strip I can't stop laughing to save my soul. This is one such strip.

Lyle cares not where the bras he licks are from, just so long as they are bras.
stuartc » pro10 months ago
A rookie question perhaps, but how do you know when you've exhausted the licking potential of one cup? And do you always start with the right cup? So many bra-licking-ettiquette questions go unanswered...

Why do people feel the need to comment negatively (and lengthily) on free entertainment? Just close the browser window, people. Onstad is allowed his off days just like everyone else.
