I signed up just so I could see what was so horrible about the constantly lamed Dr Manflesh. mother of god

I'm actually speechless...

Dr Manflesh is a bad man... I...

Now I'm scared to go to the bathroom, afraid of the images it brings up. Damn you Dr. Manflesh! I doubt you're even a real doctor!

I don't know how it is that I read the entire thing while eating without feeling the least bit nauseous, but it makes me really proud of myself. Almost too proud.
lolsworth » neu 1 months ago
Do not feel proud. It means you are basically terrible. You probably should kill yourself.

Wow. I think that that sets the record for most lamed out comments in a row. is that a good or bad thing? we may never know.
dracer2 » neu 2 months ago
I'm not sure that it sets the record, but it is certainly a long run of lamed out comments, and all stemming from a little strip reference comment that I made - a comment, I note, that currently has 182 chubbies to its 3 lames. It is my most chubbied comment - the scene of my greatest victory - which is why I've chosen this strip to make the following proclamations.

Dear Assetbar: I feel that the default lamed out comment threshold should be proportional to chubbies. The general consensus on this comment is evidentially that it is chubby, and the greying out should reflect this. It just means one more if statement to not grey out if the chubbies are greater than the lames. I feel you can handle this.

Dear Assetbar Users: I find the following comments that you see everywhere to be lame, and intend to start marking them as such.

1. Comments that says things like "chubby for you" and don't add anything to the dialogue. You feel someone is chubby worthy? Then just give them a chubby, there's no need to take credit for it. People who provide a reason for their chubbies, like "chubbied for Venture Bros reference" or whatever are a grey area and will be assessed on a case by case basis. In most cases though I would find these comments to accomplish nothing aside from elongating the page, and therefore to be lame. If you lamed someone by accident when you intended to chubby them then there is likewise no need to comment apologising. Suck it up.

2. Comments that say "oh, perfect avatar sync" or "chubbied for your avatar." I find these lame because people can (and do) change their avatars, making the relevance of your comment fleeting at best.

3. I'm getting pretty sick of the things that are established in the later strips and then get parroted again and again in the early archives. "Philippe is five, he will always be five" springs to mind, but there's about a dozen... "Ray Smuckles gets things done", "Teodor is hung like a cranberry" et al... guys, unless it's actually relevant to the strip/discussion, these comments are lame.

doc_rostov » neu 1 years ago
Dropkickpikachu, this is not the manner in which Gentlemen behave. I have offered Mr. Juancarlos this most dubious of honors, but I have yet to see such an offer bestowed by yourself upon our esteemed colleague. Why is this?

...wait wait wait a fucking second. I'm on the internet, lecturing someone named DRORKICKPIKACHU about the virtues of being a gentleman.

This is not optimal.
katsura » pro 2 years ago
my eyes must be going, because for a second in panel 4 I had to look twice and reassure myself that Beef's leg HADN'T become freakishly long.

but is this the first time Beef and Molly have been shown going at it? If so, what a way to kill your boner :[

Molly has a widow's peak.

This is primarily significant because she is a cat.

I'm not sure what this has to do with anything.

However, I am reasonably sure that hot dog links would not be sufficiently strong enough for a grown man to use them to hang himself.

Panel five, Beef's first ugly thought is "a kid hits a terrible baseball shot in the big game".

Sidney Yamahata's mouth is even more gross than Philipe's.

We can see now that 'Stad designed Yamahata's face as the perfect nightmare news reader face to be confronted with in mid-thrust.

Beef's TV is actually a telescreen. Sidney is pretty surprised at what he's seeing.

"Woman we ain't need some blanket! I ain't gonna see none of it happen!"

What the hell does that mean? Does Beef always keep his eyes closed during the deed?
alejandroadam » neu 2 years ago
I think he means he won't stop watching TV
neonfreon » neu 2 years ago
He means he can't see the penis entering the vagina due to the position Molly will take on top of him.

The important thing to take from this strip is that Achewood's cats are so human they can pull off sex positions like this.
unaware » pro 2 years ago
I think it means he'll cash his ticket much too soon if he sees the deed.
silver_lake » pro 2 years ago
I think it means he wants to see the sex, not just feel the sex. He's a man, after all. He has needs.
connellingus » neu 2 years ago
He means "We don't need a blanket, because I want to see it happen and I won't if we have one" rather than "We don't need a blanket, because I won't see any of it happen anyway."

paperboy_2000 » pro 2 years ago
It's nice that Beef and Molly have reached a mutual accomodation where the TV is left on, but muted, during sex. Beef should be ever thankful that this saves him from hearing Sidney Yamahata refer to him as "this little grey fellow, here".

Ok, so they printed Ray's blog on the editorial page of the Australian Daily Telegraph? That is both awesome and disturbing.

The timing could probably be better for Chris. The web site will get a lot of first-time hits from Australian readers, and they'll be greeted by the sight of two cats rooting on the sofa and a Sidney Yamahata/ Goth LOLcat 2-fer.

Welcome, Aussies! It ain't Garfield.

Funny. The subject is lolcats, and Roast Beef specifically wonders if there is "SOMETHING AWFUL" on the news.
straw » pro 2 years ago
Dear ROAST BEEF,

I am deeply sorry that I MADE YOU A LOLCAT AND PUT YOU ON THE NIGHTLY NEWS. I know it was my fault. I never meant for that to happen. I never dreamed it could.

I am also sorry that A GUY PUT YOU ON HIS WEBPAGE and that THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE LOOKING AT for a little while. I hope you feel the same way.

I mean this. I mean every word.
RAY!

He means a lot of people are also commenting on the blogs and Australia column in the space meant for discussing strips. I would like to see less of it personally. I think it would be great if Assetbar incorporated the blog entries chronologically arranged with the strips and you could comment on each individual piece.

I don't have ugly thoughts, but in a pinch I often begin trying to do arithmetic in my head. As I am not very good at mathematics this works fairly well. I also sometimes try to remember the words to a showtune or the names and birthdays of people I've met.

Roast Beef frequently loses track of what he's doing when he gets into a particularly ugly thought.

Also, "Maybe there's somethin' awful on the News" ? MAYBE?

Molly's pet name for RB is "Sugar Brains." She really does love him for his smartnesseses. I think that is awesome!

Seriously, half the fun is seeing it happen.
tekende » pro 2 years ago
Half the fun is the moment of insertion.

25% is what leads up to it (undressing, foreplay, etc.). 10% is what happens between insertion and coitus.

15% is coitus.

Percentages may vary by person.

I was briefly encouraged by the fact that ROAST BEEF of all people was having trouble thinking of horrible things. Clearly his life is moving in a good direction.

Or was, anyway. At least he's got a new mental image to use for stalling.
