Who would win in a band fight: Poison, or The Cure? What if Poison had named themselves The Poison — what then? Which band was C.C. DeVille in? (If you answered that C.C. DeVille was in The Cure, you have just created a fascinating new alternate universe timeline.) If Robert Smith and C.C. DeVille shared an apartment, would all the Aqua Net cause the ozone layer to open up to pure black outer space above it? Don't forget to vote!

If we're just talking about bands(I'm not sure if I understand the assignment in the commentary) it has been with dawning horror that I realize all good music, true bangers, stopped sometime around 2002. I am reduced to a 40 year old man to goes to White Ford Bronco shows and only that. Although I do believe I have The Cure in my "Team Yankee/Fulda Gap" 80s play list.

"The Poison" in my mind is five Type O Negative guys in the same band (fuck that guy, he sucks). Ron Swanson is far more gruff out loud whereas I believe Cornelius' gruffness is more subtle and buried more deeply just for politeness. Both would care a lot if they hurt you, but wouldn't give a fig if they made you angry or just annoyed.

The Good Poster

If we must compare and contrast: Cornelius Bear is a gentleman, while Swanson peters out at "man".

Achewood

Swanson is a gentleman with an unshared rule set.

Achewood

Agree, ron is a river barge at a dinner party

I'm team Cure, I think. Robert Smith seems like he'd win most fights by just being aggressively mildly bemused and letting his opponents work themselves into an aneurysm.

Oh you just code that computer any way you want, the good lord will provide

Ben Wilinofsky

Eat a realm of nice round nude asses of Norfolk, Theodor

Rob Dalton

"A career in cheese-making" — very (late stage) Nigel Tufnel.

Bruce Wright

For a second there I thought we were talking about Mink DeVille and now I feel even older, thanks

Bruce Wright

Also need "Just Like Heaven"

Zen Window

if william gibson can just make up how computers work despite not knowing a lick about them and composing neuromancer on a typewriter... said like jack black's "A COSBY SWEATAHH" in high fidelity: A TYPEWRITAHH ...onstad can damn well mold reality to his liking in service of a chuckle

Ian Stewart

Teodor has been reusing the same tower PC case since 2001

Bruce Wright

Actually, I believe it was more 1986

Achewood

Reusing implies he's put new guts in it. It might still be chunking along some vintage NT

Achewood

Well, it's a hard call to make when you only realize the discrepancy at 11:30pm the night before it's supposed to post. Those are the moments that, as a cartoonist/writer, suuuuuuuuck

Achewood

Is that somebody Divine went out with

Achewood

I enjoyed the new film. I thought it would be bigger and hit harder, but it was pleasant, as were the old gents who made it

Achewood

That's awfully charitable, considering the realms of ass people usually want him to eat

Achewood

This attitude from Sondra is exactly why Ray only lasted two days in Computer Science 101 at the JC

Achewood

Yeah, I can't imagine Robert Smith raising his hands except to protect himself from someone throwing spaghetti at him.

Rob Dalton

It didn't quite get to 11, that's for sure, but it was fun to see the old guys in there swinging. Also fuck Sir Paul for being a songwriting GOAT… AND being funny as hell. He nearly salvaged the movie.

Achewood

I wish they could have afforded for Paul to be woven throughout. The line about his "toxic personality" was perhaps my favorite in the whole show. The whole thing fell somewhere between Epic and Mehpic. Plus, it was like twelve minutes long.

Chris Warren

I love the Meg White comic so much.

Rob Dalton

KICK my ass. I'm not askin'—I'm tellin'. KICK MY ASS. (I'm naming my next dog Artie Fufkin, Polymer Records).

Achewood

$10 if you want to see that comic naked

Achewood

Surprised there aren't more Pomeranians named Fufkin, frankly

Anthony Thompson

Chris you cannot just make up stuff about how computers have always worked because that is ai’s job now

TaxoBob

It may be Silly to like The Cure but it is nothing short of Impossible to unironically like [The] Poison [unironically].

Misty De Méo

Negative space only Téodor looks like a strange set of eyes...

Achewood

Say what you want but there is no better song by which to fill up your gas tank on a lonely stretch of road at midnight than Every Rose Has Its Thorn

Achewood

I’m noticing that negative space ray looks like a martini garnished with a $90 sex toy

Achewood

I think John frusciante had the market cornered on Hollywood heroin horror houses of the rich and famous
