Comic for Thursday, September 21st, 2006

NO JEANS!

Posted: 12:20 am, Thursday, September 21st

Those of you who don't hit up Something Awful, or don't catch up on the stuff they do on weekends, may not know about the Weekend Web feature where they go to internet chat rooms and basically mock the crap out of everyone there. A lot of times, they go to chat rooms of white supremacists, or chat rooms where teens with gallingly little grasp of human sexuality talk about masturbating. This past weekend, however, they hit a chat room dedicated to Ted Nugent, whose very name is transcendent comedy. I was about to tell a long story about Ted Nugent, but I've decided to work it into the comic, instead. So, just enjoy the rantings of anonymous Ted Nugent fans, which are every bit as batshit crazy as you'd guess them to be.

This worst .mp3 blog ever made the rounds yesterday, but I'm linking to it not because of its 'hilarity' in taking the piss out of indie tracks or .mp3 bloggers, but because it's run by fucking Perry from Undeclared, and any Undeclared sighting automatically gets posted here on Five Bucks to Friday. God, what a show. (By the way, speaking of .mp3 bloggers, rbally has a Foo Fighters show up from their the Colour and the Shape days that I'm looking forward to giving a listen. I'm a bit scared that Gabriel Byrne may show up and kill me as I'm downloading it, but since RAW finally got to see the Foos in concert without the seventh seal breaking, I am heartened.) One last sin before I quit I never wanted anymore than I could fit into my head I still remember every single word you said and all the shit that somehow came from all of it still there's one thing that comforts me since I was always caged and now I'm free. Sorry, just wanted to see if I remembered that part from Monkey Wrench - turns out I do. How 'bout that?

Talking in a Bill Cosby voice really entertains me - so imagining Bill Cosby doing King Kong *really* entertains me. (Doing, in that context, means voicing, not, you know, schtupping, although that's pretty funny to think of, also.)

2.0 and I treated ourselves to a fancy dinner last night at this place called Chestnut on Smith Street - holy shit, was that good.

Goodness, Emerald, this is a family show!

Yeesh, I'll say. Pat's right, I need to get on that Akismet thing. Need to make sure the service I pay for supports it, though.

what's up with the "no jeans" sign? have i just never seen it before?


2.0 -- Thursday, September 21 2006, 09:34 am

Of Chestnut...

Jeremiah should have mentioned that they have a pris fixe menu Monday- Wednesday. For only 25 bones you get an app, main course, and dessert. Yum.

So good it will make you cry!

No Jeans!man, the Chinese military officer from the Diesel jeans ad campaign from the fall of '97 in Europe. I've had a cardboard cut-out of him everywhere I've lived since I got back from Italy. He's in my closet these days, but back in the basement days, he stood in the corner. I'm not sure if this is his first appearance in the strip - I have a nagging feeling I squeezed him in once before - but it's definitely the first time I've ever used this angle.


Bullfrog -- Thursday, September 21 2006, 09:38 am

I think the prix fix is actually Tues-Thurs, babe. And we're both wrong - Tuesday and Wednesday, according to their actual website, which didn't come up in a Google search.

I setup Akismet whenever it was that Pat suggested it, but lately it doesn't seem to be doing a very good job. I think the system that Gawker (and its affiliates) just switched to is good where anybody can comment but someone who hasn't commented before must be approved first. I know WordPress supports some type of comment moderation, but I don't know if it works like Gawker.

Keep in mind Akismet goes with Wordpress, so I think you'd have to rework the way you post your daily updates. Maybe it's a standalone though, who knows.

Nice use of the "Superunknown" T shirt.

Pete is still not officially enrolled in law school, right? Or did he decide to make it legal this semester? [Note: That phrasing came into my head before I realized what an awful pun it was. And yet I am letting it stand.]

I am impressed that he's dedicated enough to be writing a note!

Go BoSox!

Hi! Nice site!
