The hash browns thing seems useful really

Of all the subjects Roast Beef wrote about in RECIPES FOR A LADY OR A MAN: THE ACHEWOOD COOKBOOK, home fries seems to invoke the greatest passion. ("Once you make a potato chewy, you are doing things to it so wrong that it would be best if you just gave that person the potato, and let them take it home and try to make sense of it by themself.")

Such truth! If only more restaurants understood.

Of course Ray the software entrepreneur wears a tie and a phone headset.

Step 1: Write buggy beta software.
Steps 2-4: See above
Step 5: Pick out Herman Miller chairs.

Step 6: ???
Step 7: PROFIT!

This would actually be very useful for people who never throw away their eggs or milk until they've used them all up even when they're expired. (Everytime I see my mom or dad I refuse to eat anything dairy-based. They may think I'm a vegan. I let them. There's eggs in there that have been there since 04)

I have noticed that eggs often seem to last past the expiration date, while milk does not.

Also if you drink directly out of a milk carton it causes the remaining milk to expire faster, but if you drink a portion of an egg and leave a remaining portion it does something else.

This is a casual story arc suitable for any occasion.

Such as a simple thing of friends, like a barbeque.

Devilled eggs, man. Devilled goddamn eggs. Not good with hash browns, but a must for potluck dinners

If Achewood ever went animated, this would be the first episode. This I assure you.

The software is only vaild if one never runs out of milk or eggs. Is this bad coding or a tr�s post-modern joke that I am not cool enought to get?

Let's make this clear - Ray is not writing anything down with that pen.

he's drawing a picture of a naked lady. it's on a birthday card featuring a pink cake, and her buttocks are hovering precariously -- teasingly -- over it.

i need a program that will calculate how much spaghetti to boil.

Ray's light bulb is really big.

ray's mouth is peekin' open a little bit for the first time, like it's just sticking it's toe in the water a little.

Beef seems really sad with himself for writing a hash brown function.

Unfortunately Beef made one miscalculation with his hash brown function. You can never have enough hash browns.

People! I don't usually badger about things such as Beef ratings, but this strip is kind of really epic in very many small ways. It lays hell of groundwork for so many subtle elements that will appear again and again and be wonderful. It may not be the funniest, but it may be the most important. Let's come proper. Let's make this a 5, folks.
