0047 - The Account, Pt. 6
Added 2024-01-19 18:00:13 +0000 UTCI am in the post-norovirus (Wikipedia: “Winter Vomiting Disease”) stage wherein gratitude and joy at the opportunity to once again simply walk the earth course abundantly through me. Breakfast shall be 3-5 almonds, the aroma off a piece of toast, and a cautious gulp of matcha. Then we’ll see how arm day at the gym goes. Hopefully I can at least get to the front desk check-in then back to the car.

Also, I have been informed via Facebook ad that Wingstop has declared this month to be “Dry Rub January”.

2024-01-27 19:48:05 +0000 UTCWait a minute, the broken high-end men's eye-wear in the final panel is giving me this weird foreshadowing vibe... like Ray is about to show up, save Teodor's ass from his financial predicaments while cracking wise on T's terrible choices, resume his relationship with Tina, and pen a brand new Prime Time Records hit, "LovePhoenix Remix." Think of the Tradition of Excellence!

2024-01-20 23:37:19 +0000 UTCI don't know how you expect to ever receive the rent if you keep writing him deeper into catastrophe like this. Or maybe T would find a way to fail this hard anyway, with a focus and intensity normally reserved for successes, even if given every advantage.

2024-01-20 23:22:19 +0000 UTCDang but T is having a rough one
Matt Amis
2024-01-20 21:26:35 +0000 UTCSo true, dammit. It feels like fate is turning his wheel as much as his own bad decisions sometimes.
Joe Locastro
2024-01-20 14:40:20 +0000 UTC"She's my boss, we're on the same side" Holy cow I knew he was a dumb boy fooling himself but damn that letter put him into full fantasyland
Toilet Cobra
2024-01-20 07:29:29 +0000 UTCI don't know if it counts as his private kingdom if children behind the barrier of a bedroom door are mentioning it to the landlord because they cannot not hear the little sad bear's onanistic fury.

2024-01-20 07:02:47 +0000 UTCAchewood is really in its "bears lying dead on the ground" era.
Oppido
2024-01-20 03:05:49 +0000 UTCHe's also the spinelessness and sexual fecklessness of that generation.

Lionstooth
2024-01-20 01:42:17 +0000 UTCOne gets the impression Lyle told Onstad T spend a couple thou on fashion and fashion accessories.

2024-01-19 22:24:46 +0000 UTCHonestly that's what broke me.
Lisa Taylor
2024-01-19 22:10:22 +0000 UTCIt wouldn't even rate top ten worst things the Lil Shaver has ever heard in that house.
Josh Egbert
2024-01-19 21:52:02 +0000 UTCI seem to remember Téodor having a chance at receiving a third leg in the back of Nice Pete's van...
Dusty Lee
2024-01-19 21:49:17 +0000 UTCMr Onstad, you're not being at all unreasonable regarding the rent. However, the amount of lotion/lube a dude jerks it with is his own private kingdom.
Julie (HiDeeHoGal)
2024-01-19 21:15:13 +0000 UTCthe actual largest tragedy here is Teodor's phone situation

2024-01-19 19:38:22 +0000 UTCThe symmetry, the mystery, the below the surface hysteria, Teodor’s Return to Saturn is terrifying!
Cf Duddy
2024-01-19 18:53:54 +0000 UTCFuck dude, I had no idea you were such a dick of a landlord. You're already a god who can grant Teodor eternal life, a third leg, a million billion dollars (like you did for Ray) or Elon Musk's head on a spike (not a jar). But no, you break his phone, write him mean notes, then bust his glasses and twist his ankle. You're going all old testament on his ass.

2024-01-19 18:44:19 +0000 UTCFlexing? Funking? Fouring? Fadeing? Flowing? Ah, it could be anything! Another fantastic cliffhanger, looking forward to more clues for what the covered word might be!

2024-01-19 18:27:37 +0000 UTCT is the distilled hope, misplaced trust, and over-achievement expectations of my entire generation.

2024-01-19 18:25:57 +0000 UTCYou can buy new glasses. Being a lumpenprole is harder to fix
Max Kreisky
2024-01-19 18:20:42 +0000 UTCmy god Teodor I think this is the second least dignified death you've ever had
Sedric And Charlie
2024-01-19 18:19:03 +0000 UTCTeodor using too much lotion while jerking off is the kind of character detail that spirals out into the mind and takes hold. My theory? He read an article about the dangers of a dry jack (skin breakdown, irritation, possible infection) and wayyy overcorrected. Like, he goes through two bottles of Jergens a month overcorrected.

Hector Jimenez
2024-01-19 18:17:33 +0000 UTCThe broken glasses at least make for satisfying bookends with the shattered phone screen.
Oppido
2024-01-19 18:15:27 +0000 UTCThe sad thing is, T could've hustled rent money out of Ray weeks ago with a 15-minute game of pool, but instead he had to have Ego about it.
Oppido
2024-01-19 18:14:44 +0000 UTCHe died in front of pornography once and that wasn't the worst day he ever had. Better than this, though.
Matthew Harris
2024-01-19 18:12:43 +0000 UTCi'm sure recalling his time in the back of nice pete's van is some comfort to him

Amit Katz
2024-01-19 18:07:12 +0000 UTCThere's a metaphor here about the substance/style debate...
Christopher Malone
2024-01-19 18:05:31 +0000 UTCI'm not sure what's sadder, the broken glasses or Teodor genuinely thinking "she's my boss, we're on the same side."
Jesse LE
2024-01-19 18:05:23 +0000 UTCNever thought about using lotion before
Dan Brookes
2024-01-19 18:04:41 +0000 UTCThis isn't even the worst day T has ever had.
