0020 - Ray and Pat in, "Road Trip," Pt. 4
Added 2023-09-15 17:00:07 +0000 UTCIn which we get a closer look at His Elegance Ramathustra Ron, who seems to take an instant and outsize liking to the new prodigy at the edge of his ranks. And the effects of the small dose of psilocybin seem to have begun to slowly set in...or have they? Was it just a placebo to see if Ray really is a bold new talent in RTC? Or was it, perhaps, a heroic dose? Tune in next week, as we get deeper into this Trip!
Comments
Ron’s immediate pivot from Giving A Nickname to “swallow this tablet” is so transparently manipulative

2023-09-15 22:25:33 +0000 UTCThere was that time Beef had to explain "pimp skitters" to Ray. (Also, this might not be a slang-comprehension failure so much as Ron not being familiar with that particular brand.)

2023-09-15 19:29:57 +0000 UTCOK now I think Ray and Rama Ron will get accidentally married.

2023-09-15 19:13:25 +0000 UTCThey might be poulaines too? But yes, hopefully this detail will be clarified.

2023-09-15 18:05:26 +0000 UTCSure, but I can't recall another instance of a character appearing not to immediately understand any other character with a penchant for esoteric turns of phrase either.

2023-09-15 18:05:07 +0000 UTCHey Chris, need to know what’s up with Ray’s shoes here - am I seeing a Mexican pointy boot situation or is this more of the middle eastern curled-toe balgha that we might expect in depictions of Aladdin?
Aaron J. Rushton
2023-09-15 17:55:54 +0000 UTCI think “Achewood slang” and “Ray speak” are not necessarily 100% overlap

2023-09-15 17:32:30 +0000 UTCI can't wait for the terrible betrayal when Ramathustra Ron reveals to his disciple that those frames are not, in fact, Balenciaga.

2023-09-15 17:12:23 +0000 UTCIt's been a trope for a while that Ray keeps stumbling into wild success without really trying, so it's funny to see it with material that's often grueling. Also the man looks like he's cosplaying Donald Duck.

Matthew Harris
2023-09-15 17:08:13 +0000 UTCI can see this playing out as the situation where the guy thinks he's been on a really great date but he's actually been arguing with a cutout of Christie Brinkley stuffed in the dumpster outside of a frat house.

2023-09-15 17:06:51 +0000 UTCIs this the first in-canon acknowledgment that not everyone in the Achewood universe is automatically fluent in Achewood slang?
