Alice: Look, Petey, I got some rocks from the parking lot back there! Petey: Uh oh! Shoplifting! Alice: What? Petey: When they come up short on their gravel inventory, you're in trouble. Alice: No! If Daddy had bought me that big vase then I wouldn't have stolen the gravel! Petey: Is that a siren I hear? Mom: PETEY!

A friend went to Hawaii and I asked her to bring me back a rock. Didn’t happern. She told me that tourists weren’t allowed to do that, as the goddess Pele would get angry, and the volcanoes would erupt.

If the gnome is an inanimate object, why are the irises in its eyes bigger in panel 2 than in panels 1 & 3? Is that intentional?
