does ray smuckles seriously only sleep on a twin? That's a bit of a let down.
unfun » neu2 years ago
Ray has many beds.
teira » neu2 years ago
I always sort of just assumed he'd have a size beyond king. A size simply named "Ray"
themolt » neu2 months ago
Many beds for many occasions.
atticusonline » neu1 years ago
The fact that I actually know a skinny-ass, dry-haired girl named Summer is terrifying and hilarious.
fermatprime » neu1 years ago
is she a "secret shopper" for a grocery store analysis chain?
atticusonline » neu1 years ago
That is something she would definitely do...also smoking the wrong end of a cigarette.

evolume » neu2 years ago
i'm sure i've mentioned this before but, my firm belief is that he sleeps on a twin so that if there is a hotty next to him, she has to get out or get busy...
dropkickpikachu » neu2 years ago
What a coincidence this is my strategy as well.
achilleselbow » neu2 years ago
This is my strategy also. It has nothing to do with the fact that the indented space in my tiny room only allows for a twin bed, or that I cannot afford a larger one.
thescrivener » neu1 years ago
I'm 6'2" and I sleep on a full, even at a near-anorexic level I take up more than a twin bed by myself.
My strategy is that if you have enough space for yourself and a hottie, you need more hotties, not less space.
mikeronomicon » neu1 years ago
I like your style! Chubbie for you good sir!
spicyponyhead » neu10 months ago
I bought a king-sized bed, so there'd be room for 2 other people to sleep over. So far, this has worked well.
farqussus » neu2 years ago
Although we only ever see Ray wake up when he is hungover, I like to think he only sleeps in that bed when he's drunk. It's a small, bare bed in a small bare, spare bedroom that Beef has coined 'Wallow World".

you have to cherish ray's sleeping face.

His nose injury may have given him a deviated septum.

Ray's arm is hell of skinny. (Damn, that should not worry me so much.) Have the kebab, Ray, get some meat back on them bones.

Who needs assetbar for this one? When I read it, I imagined someone yelling at Roast Beef.
spinynorman » neu2 years ago
We all know Onstad could rake in thousands of dollars by letting dating site popups advertise on Assetbar. It's only though his favor that we are not tempted by the smiling 19-year old talking on the phone while playfully lying on her bed with massive words CALL ME! underneath.
pyromancer » pro2 years ago
No kebab. Ray would totally chunder the kebab.
gormster » neu2 years ago
I think that is the first time I have ever heard anyone use the word 'chunder' in context. This is significant since it is apparently slang native to my homeland.

Sleeps with em on or forgets to take them off before collapsing onto his bed?

I had an experience similar to Ray once, when I woke up in the morning. Luckily "THERE WAS NO LADY PE TEACHER THERE".

thommy_h » pro2 years ago
Hmmm...Ray's inner-monologue appears to obey the same laws of punctuation and style as Roast Beef's actual dialogue. Is this significant?

it's because his head is pounding so hard he can barely hear his thoughts

I woke up one time and thought I was blind. Turned out it was just 5am and I was facing a wall.

I once woke up convinced it was the 1950s, and therefore not worth switching the TV on.

I woke up convinced I could send a clone of myself to take a shower and go to work, so that I could continue sleeping.

I once woke up convinced that I was still dreaming, and went through the day doing ridiculous things and fearing no consequences.

I once woke up with a spoon in my mouth, a bowl of cereal in my hand, Skinemax on the tv, and my parents screaming at me.

I once woke up and spent the first five minutes of my day trying to turn off the alarm telekinetically.

ttagxamm » neu2 years ago
One morning I woke up, put my bathing suit on, sleep-drove to the gym, removed my bathing suit for a pre-swim shower, and walked to the pool bare-ass naked before realizing where the hell I was.
croi » neu2 years ago
How far was the gym?
ttagxamm » neu2 years ago
Oh, I dunno, four or five miles? I had my wife in the car to prod me back awake.
Caught a lucky break in that the smaller pool off the locker rooms was unlit and empty, and an even luckier break that none of the cleaning staff was in the laundry room I passed on my way to poolside.

I love that shish kebabs are only delicious at appropriate times, and are otherwise gross. Also, he can't even allow himself a decent amount of toast. That's how early it is.

Some kids hide under their blanket from imaginary monsters. Ray hides under his blanket from imaginary secret shoppers that he may or may not have boned. If I can't see her, she can't spoon me!

Ray's control of his anxiety is great: once the danger of post-coitus cuddles is out of sight, he just exhales into sleep.
In that same situation, I usually have to do a shot, then jog outside, and then do two more shots. It's what I call my Eye of Tiger regiment.

Dang I am eagerly awaiting the next strip. I suppose Philippe is doing some last-minute fact checking about the speed of industrial bologna slicers or some such.
Anyone else worried about Rod Huggins after Nice Pete's blog entry? Pete may be one "caramel thighs" from a little one-on-one with Rod.
miku224 » neu2 years ago
I too am rather concerned for Rod. But then, I'm rather concerned for everyone that Nice Pete encounters. He's a dangerous dude.
