It is a very nice chode.
overmedicated » neu 1 years ago
Over here (Northern England) a 'choad' refers to a penis that is wider than it is long.
malesherbez » neu 1 years ago
that's true in America too....choad definitely not the same as taint
deimosrising » neu 1 years ago
Not strictly true. It's regional. I've lived places where it was as you say, causing great consternation when I, an individual of other extraction, procalaimed prius's definition.
hellofyellin » pro 1 years ago
We are discussing the etymology of the word "choad".
magnumt » neu 1 years ago
Achewood is truly a celebration of the English Language.
soticoto » con 7 months ago
Or alternatively a bunch of people using a bunch of words I've honestly never heard used.
canusdivinus » neu 4 months ago
Rock on, Achewood reader-base.
tragicone » neu 7 months ago
Here, we call smegma, choad. or CHeese On A Dick
overmedicated » neu 1 months ago
That's quite obviously 'knobcheese', or the time honoured Red Dwarfian 'smeg'.
overmedicated » neu 1 months ago
Or of course 'cocksnot'. Damn I could do this all day.
joeyramoney » neu 11 months ago
i believe priuschaser was confusing "chode" with "gooch".
obvious » neu 9 months ago
I dunno, I'm in the central US and, as I remember from back in school, they taught me that choad means taint. I've always known a stumpy ol' dick as a "dodus."
rowboat » pro 9 months ago
I, too, am from the Central U.S. and I've never heard of a "dodus." I'm not doubting you. Just jealous that I never got to use it at a point in my life when it obviously would have been absolutely exhilarating. Anyway, the good folks at Urban Dictionary have information that will make all of us feel correct, even if that site is complete bullshit.

In my part of Canada, we say "Chud"
(Southern Ontario, aww yeah)
centipede_damascus » pro 1 years ago
That is the saying over here in the Pacific Northwest as well.
sredni » neu 1 years ago
In Australia too (Sydney at least)
awko » neu 1 months ago
Absolutely nothing personal but it's my duty as a person form Melbourne to lame the two comments above.

For the greater good

If penises exist that are wider than they are long, why is there no porn of it?
mikekitchell » neu 10 months ago
there is.
dropkickpikachu » neu 8 months ago
In Japan.

I'm not joking, you ever watch Japanese porn?
canusdivinus » neu 4 months ago
It isn't that it's that wide, it's that it's that short.

God that sentence looks awkward and yet it is grammatically correct.
crawfomp » neu 6 months ago
C'mon now, a Choad is the part that lives 'tween the cheeks and the boys. A place that 'tis neither a-hole 'nor balls. And I'll have you know Beef has more talent in his Chode than you have in your entire body!
jun » pro 4 months ago
True--but it seems various regional dialects have different word for that part. In St. Louis, for example, it is referred to as the "grundle."
differentdog » neu 1 years ago

when is a chode not a chode
solobuttons » pro 4 months ago
why is a chode?
overmedicated » neu 1 months ago
How much chode can a chodechode chode if a chode chode could chode chode.
cheeks_jd » pro 1 years ago
This comic made me actually laugh out loud when I first read it. hell decrepit styles.
science » pro 1 years ago
I was peeking Achewood just before our board meeting started when I hit this strip. What do you say to a crotchity old VC dude when he asks what you're laughing at? You have to show him the wang.
Sadly he didn't get it. Went on to be a rough meeting. Rough, but worth it.
sexualhomeboy » neu 8 months ago
Yeah, I hear the Viet Cong frikkin HATE penis jokes.
monkeyock » neu 1 years ago
Roast Beef is the ultimate hard luck story that (eventually) turned out (sort of) OK. He is my favorite character.
dan » pro 1 years ago
One of my favorites.
jared » pro 1 years ago
Just what is that design on the bottom of ray's skateboard? An arm coming out of a target? If so does that have any meaning?
primal_in_the_mane » pro 1 years ago
I think it's Onstad's subconscious homage to old school skateboards , right there with Ray's tortoise shell Vuarnets.
red_rooster » neu 1 years ago
i had this same board in the early 90's. i think it was a jeff grosso SCS board, but my memory is hell of decrepit. i love that onstad remembers it, noseguard and all.
djwhiterabbit » pro 1 years ago
it's actually a rob roskopp; check my remark below. (^ ^,)
djwhiterabbit » pro 1 years ago
ray's board is an old-skool Rob Roskopp version I (far left), produced by Santa Cruz in the early 80's (which Rob is now the owner of).

i had a Rob Roskopp version III myself, complete with all the guards and rails that ray's has. a friend of mine cold broke the sucker in half after a particularly adventurous ollie in 1987.

memories of skating, indeed.
fineoakstructure » pro 1 years ago
Good call. I think my friend had this board, and it would've been in 87/88, yes. And my favorite accessory inclusion is the very short lived phenomenon tail rails...I didn't even notice them until now. OH MY GOD and the truck protector. And the two different wheel colors. This is so 88 it makes me cry.
evolume » neu 1 years ago
"truck protector" was called a "Birdy" where i'm from.
fineoakstructure » neu 1 years ago
Yes, thank you. Unfortunately, unlike Beef, all my old Thrashers and Transworld's were dumped over a decade ago. It took me a few minutes to remember if they were even called "tail rails." I'm still not sure that's right.
joeyramoney » neu 1 years ago
and roast beef is surely utilizing one of those little platforms with casters of them that people use to work on cars.
relaxing » neu 4 months ago
jesus christ it is amazing that you know that and that is was useful here and i'm serious that is a wonderful thing.
daily » pro 11 months ago
That's a first-graphic Rob Roskopp board on Santa Cruz from the early 80's. Sweet. http://www.skateandannoy.com/features/ebay/2006/ebay044/
theoneyouwant » pro 1 years ago
one of the funniest inadvertant one eyed snake sitings ever.
sredni » con 1 years ago
I disagree, the catcock is such a brilliant feature of this strip. I don't know why, but seeing that wang cracks me up every time.
canusdivinus » neu 4 months ago
Woulda been better if it was Rock Hard?
breadcrab » neu 6 months ago
Didn't want to give the furries too much primo j/o material at work, obviously.
snakpacattack » neu 1 years ago
When did Ray convert from every day clothes to the standard thong?
drskradley » neu 9 months ago
When he could.
canusdivinus » pro 4 months ago
Board out with your cord out!
saint » neu 1 years ago
and that is why short shorts and skateboarding became banned in public places.
senseihollywood » neu 1 years ago
poor roast beef just cannot catch a break
epicurus » pro 1 years ago
If I skateboarded as a child this would exactly happen to me.
kreftron » pro 1 years ago
I wonder why this isn't rated higher, being one of the only comics that actually makes me laugh out loud each time after dozens of readings.
never_die » neu 1 years ago
beef's board is a 2x4 with a smaller piece of wood nailed to it. hell of decrepit.
evolume » neu 1 years ago
it looks like the board that M.J. Fox makes from the 50's kid's skooter in Back to the Future.
deancain29 » neu 1 years ago
anyone that votes a strip less than 4, is in my eyes the equivilent of a murderer.
darthemed » neu 1 years ago
Like Nice Pete? In that they weed out the less fit of the species?
happycat » pro 1 years ago
I think I had that same conversation about OUI when I was a kid. Those were good.
excusemesenator » neu 1 years ago
The original alt text for this was "Like it or not, you like it." but then Onstad changed it to merely "." for some reason.
stuart » neu 10 months ago
It's now the title.
landstander » pro 11 months ago
Poor Beef with his dick all hanging out.

man i don't wanna look at even my own muchless a cartoon cat's
dueledge » neu 10 months ago
on first reading this post I thought you said "man I don't wanna look at my own munchables", which was funny all by itself.
stormagnet » pro 5 months ago
That is a brilliant new euphemism.
jlynes » neu 10 months ago
You're afraid of your own wing-dang-doodle? That's rough, man. What happened to you as a kid?

Show us on the doll where he touched you!
heyman » neu 8 months ago
No one should be a cock to their own dick. Ever!
helloftubby » neu 11 months ago
hey beef, your peppers fell out! HOW COME?
epicurus » neu 10 months ago
This is one of the ones where the alt text being just a punctuation symbol (in this case, a single period) really works well. I mean, it really is case closed once his dong rattles out of his shorts.

And then once your dong rattles out, you can't fix it or you risk losing your balance and taking a header (pun intended) down the stairs and end up unconscious with your hand on your wang in a public place.
agentstinky » pro 10 months ago
One of my all-time favorites. So hilarious and yet so sad and awkward and characteristically perfect for Roast Beef.
deancain29 » pro 9 months ago
this is all types of awesome
falseprophet » neu 9 months ago
That's the same sound mine makes. Beef truly is a man of the working class.
wittyname » neu 8 months ago
No one else noticed that Beefs' skateboard is nailed together?
takepills » pro 8 months ago
wow
i somehow didn't laugh the first time i saw this
exactly the opposite the second time around

And poor Carl's now neutered. Life is never neat; life is always bad.

Why does this make me feel so uncomfortable? Methinks it is the wiggles.

This happened to me, but during stretching in soccer while wearing short shorts.

Man. Things ain't never the same after you've seen a dude's junk.

In a metaphorical sense, yes.

When did Beef become a nudist?

I didn't want to think about it, but it occurred to me anyway.

Wouldn't it be peeking out in the other direction?
