0070 — Nice Pete Formalizes His Umbrage
Added 2024-06-21 17:00:08 +0000 UTCClearly the insults heaped upon Nice Pete's think tank's output could not stand. It appears that Pete is so steamed he is penning a manifesto, which is usually not a good sign for anyone named therein. Will the old debts and deeds keep them from killing each other? Or is it a new day — has the blade cut too deep?

2024-06-30 09:37:39 +0000 UTCi love this low-caste trio vs ray plotline. the question is where do beef's loyalties stand? to his best friend? or to those kindred folk who have so many times come home to a passed out drunk mother and lukewarm 'mayo rolls' on the kitchen table?

2024-06-24 13:31:42 +0000 UTCShower seemed like a pretty natural response to PB butt. Didn’t think twice.

2024-06-22 14:23:20 +0000 UTCI mean, he is a cat. I'm sure not going to feed a cat any peanuts to see how that goes.

2024-06-22 00:52:14 +0000 UTCRay should not be talking to his mother about shitting Jesus Christ man what the woman has sacrificed for you.

2024-06-21 20:54:31 +0000 UTCWhy has nobody pointed out that during his tirade about the endless messiness of excreting peanuts, Ray has emerged from a shower and is getting a fresh pair of socks This is Chekhov’s gun, but in reverse (?)
Chris Onstad
2024-06-21 20:44:50 +0000 UTCJust so long as he didn't employ any low colloquialisms like "jail grail."
Douglas Wykstra
2024-06-21 20:42:34 +0000 UTCThe most disturbing thing about this strip is the way that Ray's digestive tract apparently handles peanuts. I don't think that's supposed to be happening, Ray.
Douglas Wykstra
2024-06-21 20:41:37 +0000 UTCNice Pete getting into used-bookstore occultism is a nice swerve. Perhaps it'll end up going beyond even the Ramathustra Ron arc.

2024-06-21 19:06:01 +0000 UTCIs Nice Pete using date palms and sound waves to build a pyramid at Ray? In the garage??!

2024-06-21 19:03:49 +0000 UTCI know it's been a second, but dang it Nice Pete you were all in on Ray as the New Jesus at one point https://achewood.com/2007/01/22/title.html

2024-06-21 18:53:33 +0000 UTCGlad to see Ray talking about the dangers of eating too many peanuts!
Tom Simmons
2024-06-21 18:48:28 +0000 UTCYes, but danger is a very real idea.

2024-06-21 18:47:13 +0000 UTCSorry, mom. Next time I'll spare the description and live stream it instead. Disappointed that the curse didn't include blood.

2024-06-21 18:35:38 +0000 UTCCertainly she was willing to hear him out about the merits of super-sharp helicopter blades.

2024-06-21 18:35:04 +0000 UTCThe way this strip flips 🤣

2024-06-21 18:22:13 +0000 UTCEh, being in trouble is a fake idea.
Anthony Thompson
2024-06-21 18:19:19 +0000 UTCThis fits my personal dictum: if someone talks about "logic" or "the mind" as something like "the essential force", they are either LieBot or Nice Pete material.

2024-06-21 17:30:47 +0000 UTCUh oh. Pete has the "Eye of the Tiger" and Ray should be peanut buttering his skivvies.

Matt Mitchell
2024-06-21 17:22:03 +0000 UTCRay's conversations with his mother reveal a woman of multitudes. She might have been cool with chat sacks if Ray had been honest with her.

2024-06-21 17:21:41 +0000 UTCI'm sure everyone knows someone around whom it's almost impossible not to achieve the status of a symbol of all which must be eradicated if life on Earth is to survive just by being in their presence for long enough. Tread-Carefully-People.
Matthew Harris
2024-06-21 17:18:22 +0000 UTCNice Pete seems like he might be one of the few purchasers of Mark Corrigan's "Business Secrets of the Pharaohs," and was able to discover meaning in it that the author never imagined.
Charles Richter
2024-06-21 17:17:13 +0000 UTCA seemingly innocuous gag strip turns out to launch a storyline? Could this possibly be Achewood?
Matthew Harris
2024-06-21 17:14:20 +0000 UTCI'm trying to remember the exact wording, but there was an old strip where the alt text said something like Ray is always having the worst cell phone conversation it is possible to overhear, and I'm glad that holds true even now.
Travis O.
2024-06-21 17:12:57 +0000 UTCI called this happening last week, but I didn't think Pete would be invoking any powers, certainly not LOST powers.
