I gotta agree with Rat. Seems like Stephan wasn’t even trying.

At least Pig didn’t say anything about that kitty that was released from a lady’s purse.

I once put a cat to sleep.
.
One of the strays that sleeps on my patio stuck around while I got on my stationary bike and started riding. After ten minutes he realized I wasn’t go to do anything he hadn’t already watched, and he drifted back off to his nap.

“Beans, beans, the magical fruit…”
I’d post the rest, but I don’t wanna get banned…!

If that’s not really just beans, perhaps they should be wearing diapers.

As much as I laugh at these things I still have to ask “What’s wrong with that boy?”
Sisyphos about 8 years ago
Cartoon-Boy’s family probably don’t wear bags over their heads; too risky. But I bet they all wear tee-shirts saying “we are NOT with him,” or something equally emphatic. He did just phone this one in, as the saying goes….
Number Three about 8 years ago
He also let the cat out of the bag.

Needed more work. Maybe a Sunday strip where it was Neighbor Joe Speen and his wife Mary who messed up the carpet. It was expensive to clean, so Rat billed the Speens who spilled the beans. Like that, only funnier.
