I beseech you, casual reader, one who scrolls not past the first few comments: Do not lame pogo for his crimes. His dog just died, as you would find out later in the thread. Show him some compassion and leave this reactionary comment unmolested.

FUCK THE BOURGEOISIE MAN

(sorry i get all antsy when i see words like reactionary sorry everyone i'll just be quiet)

Nothing in this first thread is on point. That is the point.

But in the spirit of the last strip's description of Ray by things he probably does ...



i_love_kate wears a nice argyle sweater, a pea coat and a red scarf on romantic winter walks, but his frequent pratfalls seem exaggerated and almost calculated.


spinynorman goes to nursing homes and tells the residents his fictional accounts of his World War II childhood.


pogo live-blogs antiques conventions and hopes to turn his posts into a wry novel called Antiquery: A Year Among the Midwest's Mustiest Treasures.


stereo spends $145 a year to subscribe to Cat Fancy ironically, but refuses to donate a dollar to children's charities at the gas station because he worries about excessive administrative costs.


falseprophet takes on a stilted Sub-Saharan accent when in Europe.


theguitarhero showers at around 3:30 pm and then microwaves something.


achilleselbow had a special tool fabricated of the perfect proportions and density for destroying children's sand castles.


eatemorekix sits cross-legged on the floor while she scrapbooks.


woodenteeth always inquires whether he may bring a dish to a dinner party, and that dish is inevitably spiced with thyme from his own garden, although no one ever recalls asking him about it.


gladi8orrex smiles and nods at everyone on the street, then averts his glance in annoyance if anyone responds.

saulbellow hides behind his suave and well liked avatar and his humorous and often image based internet comments to conceal his tortured soul. On the other side of every well planned out joke that we all titter at in class/at work/on the toilet is a man who has not left his room in the past three years, has an endless well of links to mine, and a long neglected hamster.

DR_MANFLESH_DESIRES_ANAL_PLAY_IMMEDIATELY is a soft-spoken funeral home owner who is well recommended in his community for his genuine concern and attention to detail. He takes a snifter of brandy at the end of each day and has regular appointments at the groomer for his Coton de Tuléar who is called Papillon.

Sand castles are an entirely irresponsible use of natural resources that reinforce an oppressive authoritarian cultural mindset. After I destroy the castle, I always provide the children with an illustrated pamphlet showing them how to build a sand bicycle co-op or a sand organic smoothie stand.

I heard that motherfucker had, like, 3 goddamned chubbies.

Congratulations! you have described all one needs to know about the community that is worth knowing. If this was a message board it would get a sticky, but, since it is an assetbar, it gets a chubby. It's like a sticky, but without the follow-through.
