Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 10, 2019

I want to envy a lack of being envied, but it keeps expiring as soon as I try.

yeah, we humans are complicated to unique orns

Hello, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils.. I envy your ability to fit every bit of that hoof in your mouth. : )

Marigold, how about envying Phoebe’s fingers and opposable thumbs ?

Notice Marigold envied green stuff. Anyone aware of the irony?

Of course you’re harder than a slug. You’ve got a skeleton.

“I envy you your thumbs.”

Slugs and snails have retractable eye stalks. The feelers are on the underside of their mouths. Just sayin’.

Ooooo good save Marigold!

…thumbs?

Good comeback.

I did not sense any true envy in this cartoon.

She envies her complexity?

One evening my wife and I drove home after dark. We saw two slugs suspended from a slime rope hanging in front of the garage door having slug sex. No envy, quite a bit of fascination.

Good save

Your unique Phoebeness, that’s what you were struggling to remember!

Considering that we have pondered the act of Phoebe becoming Ornish in these pages, perhaps we could consider Marigold becoming human.

Ah wait! I think I hear a scream of anguish!

Shouldn’t Marigold envy Phoebe her ability to behold Marigold’s loveliness without becoming transfixed?

Marigold should say she envies Phoebe’s Heavenly, four-legged companion

Is she still taking her humility lessons?

Nice save their Marigold (no I’m not laughing, I just got a sudden dose of spring allergies)

Nice save there Marigold. (No I’m not laughing I just got a sudden dose of allergies cough)

“And Bart…. I like Bart”.

You did like her fingers. Their ability to fell. Though she may envy your telekinesis where you have as many ‘fingers’ as you need to do a job.

Envy is the sincerest form of stupidity…

that slug is the wrong color
