I'm amused about how anything about me is "spot on". I hate religion, for one. And if I've ever gotten "emo" about the subject, it's when some people put their blinders on to that, ignore anything I'm actually saying, and start turning me into an opponent for their own little reasons. The idea of me leaving the site because of religion is absurd.

Don't listen to Hoax, Stray. He's glib.

Plus I fully support the use of 'th word maudlin under any circumstance. You know what I haven't read in awhile speaking of comics, Bloom County, my good buddy had every book and those were some fucking amazing strips.

Finally, a funny Achewood. Someone posted this on another site. Maybe it's in this thread, maybe it's not. I'm not going to start reading it, I just wanted to make reference I found one funny and it's this one:

Agreed, got a chuckle out of that. Poor VDL and her Achewood thread.

Blast. I could've sworn I saw PBF comics earlier in here! Either way, my bad.

Ha, I hate achewood. The strip is just bad. It doesn't really do anything right. It is neither funny, nor random/absurd enough to become funny. It is perpetually stuck in this unfunny limbo...Really, really terribly strip. On the other hand, I fucking love Tim and Eric. (someone mentioned it early in the thread) It is just absurd, bizarre randomness. That show is all over the freaking place. It makes me laugh at things when I don't actually want too.. Those guys are super weird. Perry Bible Fellowship, in my opinion is one of the best strips out there. Aside from being clever, Gurewitch is a fantastic fucking artist. He is currently on hiatus, but his last strip is still funny to me...

I'm so sorry.
It's not my fault here that people choose to talk about this stuff instead of good comics, like Red Meat and Wondermark - the latter of which I wish I knew about a long time ago.

I like that comic but this has been bugging me since I saw it. If she popped when he twisted wouldn't that mean she was "pure"? YES I WOULD LIKE TO ARGUE ABOUT THE LOGIC OF A PEANUT BUTTER JAR MARRYING A JAM JAR COMIC! Also, bad memory thread should have stayed dead, I don't hate you voodoo I was just in a bad mood, I apologize.

I have never understood a Achewood comic. Even AFTER it has been explained to me. I'm just missing that part of the brain or something.

There's nothing to get. There's no punchline. It's like watching a cartoon or reading a blog - you only find it humorous or entertaining if you care about the characters and/or their personalities and antics amuse you.

Don't feel bad Miasma, I had the exact same thought and I felt dirty for analysing the physics of a comic about people with jars for heads.

S'cool, I ain't mad. I think I was going through smoking cessation when all that bile came out, so it was prolly my fault anyway. I agree with you though, that her "cherry" was popped by Peanut Butter, therefore she was pure. The premise of this strip is flawed.

I thought Peanut Butter was popping her top before unscrewing her lid, like you'd do in the store.

The lid says that the button WILL pop if her seal is broken. I'm thinking Peanut Butter expected not to hear the pop, meaning she was pure. Hearing the pop meant she was a whore.

This thread has become even more terrible than it was before, this is the worst derail ever.

Peanut Butter Man wasn't unscrewing the lid when it popped - just bumped against the button part!
(Also: Achewood is funny.)

Peanut Butter Tested her for freshness. The saftey seal clicks or pops when you press it, if it does, then the jar has been opened already. You usually test this at the store. So The comic is completely correct, and amazing.

So The comic is completely correct, and amazing. But if it goes pop then it's pure. The comic is wrong. If at any point you open jam and hear a pop then that means no one else has opened it. It's a vacuum seal, if you don't hear a pop that means someone else has already opened it. None of you fuckers eat jam with butter and toast do you?

Well once it's been popped you can keep popping the now-flexed freshness thingy.

Did we forget to give you a Bay Guardian to read when you were in SF? Red Meat is pretty awesome.

If you couldn't test it until you took the lid off that means you'd be buying without testing! Madness.
