I do lift, bro, and although I’m hardly a Fabio-esque paragon of studmuffin physique, I do have a bit of muscles going on. So, of course, the line in this comic comes from my personal life. I like making corny jokes about my arms. The other one that isn’t in the comic yet is “I don’t know how you feel about firearms, ma’am, but you should check out these guns.” *flex* Also, Alex’s dialogue in this strip is ripped directly from a conversation I had with a female friend who lifts.
Been on a low-carb diet, off and on, for the last few years. It works, provided I stick with it. Which is difficult, here in Texas, where every goddamn thing is either a burger, or breaded and deep fried. Did you know we have Chicken Fried Bacon Strips here? It’s true! And delicious. And artery clogging. And horrible for you. But tasty.
I was thin before I moved to Texas. Ugh.
Been some discussion about music in the comments, so let’s keep some punk-assed industrial going, shall we?
I love ministry BUT:
JUST ONE RIFF ONE RIFF ONE RIFF
JUST ONE RIFF.
I still say ministry’s best cover is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms7hd4e_EFg
Because of all the delicious drahama and death threats from fat ass baby boomers.
Choice!
“Chicken Fried Bacon Strips” sounds awesome, but from what I can tell the batter is basically just eggs. There is absolutely zero chicken in there. If I ordered that, and there was no chicken in there, I’d be pretty pissed off.
Eggs are chickens, just really, really young chickens.
Not from the south are we?
Chicken fried does not mean made with chicken, it means battered and fried, like fried chicken.
Down here we chicken fry just about anything. Chicken Fried Steak, and chicken fried chicken are staples of any diner.
“Chicken fried” whatever simply means “prepared like fried chicken”, that is, battered and deep fried.
Where it gets funny is, around here you can get “chicken fried chicken”, which is a boneless breast battered and fried and served with sausage gravy. So it’s chicken that’s prepared like chicken fried steak, which is steak that is prepared like fried chicken.
Yeah, that was a bit of a mind-fuck to learn about when I made the move from Ohio to Texas.
You fuckin love it and you know it.
“Chicken Fried” does not really mean “there’s chicken in this”. It really should be called “Fried Chicken Style (blank)”, meaning “there’s no reason to cook this as thought it were chicken, but we did anyways!”
Having done my share of gym time, I know what a hard core pain in the ass to get definition . If I see a woman with great arms or shoulders, I ask her what she does because her arms, shoulders etc look great. There is the fine line between sincere compliment and creeper. Luckily most women learn this early on, yet some men never do. I cite the rule of assholes, “Some people are just assholes” when it come to gym lunks.
