Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 16, 2015
Transcript:
Petey: My Mom keeps trying to sneak things into my lunch. Strange things. Unfamiliar things. Ernesto: Blue-ringed octopi? Oil bearing shale? Higgs bosons? Petey: No. Putative food items. Petey: Look at that! It's fruit, isn't it? Ernesto: Don't ask me. I'm a strict carnivore.

Methinks Petey doesn’t know the food pyramid very well.

I’m sure subatomic particles are not picky eater approved.

Being smug about only eating meat, turning the tables on vegans

Strict carnivore, that doesn’t sound too good.

The only “strict carnivore” that I know of is the Felidae family.“Felids are the strictest carnivores of the 13 terrestrial families in the order Carnivora” -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felidae

The more I get to know Petey the more I’m sure he’s going to end up an unsub on a future episode of Criminal Minds.

Blue ringed octopi sounds tasty. Grilled and served with sake.

As long as it’s olive oil-bearing shale, count me in!

Well done. Truly subtle. Go have the receptionist give you a voucher for a cookie.

I am a strict omnivore. I only eat omnis.

My mother-in-law was a very picky eater. Her motto, bless her heart, was “I don’t li-I-ke tha-at!” But she liked bread-and-butter sandwiches with radish slices. Gaah!

Ernesto is Snidely Imaginary! Petey must allow that the piece of fruit (an apple?) is not mixed with, nor touching anything else! It’s edible, even for a high-ranking Picky Eater!

I don’t think higgs bosons could exist on any type of food pyramid – not that Petey would risk eating them if they were! ;)

Higgs? I thought you said Hog Bosons — they’re delicious!
