Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for October 02, 2020

That’s SOME hot sauce they have !

Maybe a flame thrower to disinfect the table after the dining patron leaves?

Bomb disposal squad dealing with a mysterious box?

It took me a bit to get this. It’s been a while since terrorist bombings have been a problem in America.

I’m not sure I get it, but the artist’s signature is cute.

It’s too much of a stretch to suggest that a restaurant would not know what a forgotten food box was, if that’s the “joke”. It’s almost a daily occurance somewhere.

This isn’t looking too good, even with a mask. Arlo and Janis, be safe.

“Do not leave parcels unattended.”

FOOM!??? is that them cleaning the table ?

FOOM!??? is that them cleaning the table ? At first I thought someone had a big sneeze all over Arlo

Ah, I think that is indeed it. Good job!

incinerating any leftovers.

Better the explosion happen here then in Ludwig’s stomach.

Sorry , but I do not get this one at all .

The “FOOM!” reminds me of the Marvel comics I used to read in my childhood.

would it be OK to feed a cat shrimp Scampi?

Pressure cooker blew.

Doesn’t shrimp scampi have garlic? And isn’t garlic dangerous for cats?

Ludie wouldn’t eat that on a bet!

(wonders about the objects around the faces of the characters in the cartoon)

… she replied, crisply.

A cat’s not gonna eat shrimp scampi anyway.

Whose air is Janis wearing?

From the sublime to the ridiculous.

I am glad they didn’t take the shrimp scampi home to Ludie. If he ate it, things would turn pretty nasty for him. Anything in the same family as garlic causes the red blood cells to thin and burst. Garlic is 5x more toxic than onions. SOOOO, don’t share table food with your cats/dogs (affects dogs the same way) if you like onions, garlic, shallots, chives, etc. in your food. If left untreated, it is a slow and agonizing death. Treatment often includes at least one blood transfusion, if not more, but if done soon enough, recovery is usually complete.

Let’s just say we don’t get this. I have not seen one plausible explanation.

I thought it was just an industrial strength garbage disposal.

Nice attention to detail in Panel 3 JimmyJ!

Kinda like Kaboom for the bathroom?
