Pickles by Brian Crane for July 12, 2022

White socks are ‘unrealistic high expectations’? Even if you are colorblind you should be able to see the difference between plain and patterned socks. Oh, well, you did get socks for him.

Next time, bring the whole sock drawer. I think that this is the first time I’ve seen human feet in this comic strip.

That pattern, which you thought was the meaning of “Argyle” actually comes from county Argyle in Scotland.

Me too Roscoe! I feel your pain

Cut the poor dog some slack! I think he did very well just bringing you socks at all.

It’s a dog’s life.

Earl when one is lazy they get what they get ;-)

Roscoe can (also) pre-moisturize your socks for you.

A woman and her young son are walking along the beach. A huge wave comes by and sweeps the boy out to sea. The mother cries out in agony, “Oh Lord, bring my son back and I’ll do anything.” A ray of light comes down from the sky, revealing a huge bird, which swoops into the sea, retrieves the boy and places him next to his mother. The mother raises her arms to the sky and says, “He had a hat”.

It’s hard to find good “help” nowadays.

“Crew” is the length of the sock, innit? Can’t a sock be crew and argyle at the same time?

Well he tried, now if he was a Border Colley…!

What if it was an ARGYLE SWEATER – wait, that’s another comic strip!

If you’re unhappy with what Roscoe brought, maybe next time YOU should go get them, Earl!

Sock it to him, Roscoe!

I’m curious…….. why is he barefoot in the FIRST place..??

Roscoe’s eyes are so emotional. Poor baby.

Way to break the fourth wall, Roscoe. We feel your anxiety.

Lol! Woof

Back off, Pops! Roscoe’s never been to Argyle!

Earl, he brought you a matched pair of socks. Knowing you your white crews could be balled up under your bed , or in a corner…..sic ’im Roscoe.

Frankly the argyle socks would look better with those clothes than the crew socks. Roscoe has good taste.

Poor Roscoe.

“WEAR THEM, OR I WILL BITE YOUR TOES OFF HERE AND NOW,” said Roscoe.

“Give me a BREAK, papa! I’m a DOG for crying out loud!”

Earl just be happy Roscoe brought you socks.Hello everyone, not related today’s strip.I did go to Advanced Orthopedics this time Dr. came in looked at x-ray. I really messed up.I did not treat my left leg like egg shell ready to break. The lower femur where the fracture shifted. Another 5 weeks until I go back. I have to make more changes.

Some people don’t know the meaning of color blindness. What’s his name should buy Roscoe a brand new pair of color blindness glass, now available.

Tell to get his own next time Roscoe

EARL. Say “thank you” to Roscoe and put the %&^ socks on!!!!

Earl, you ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog! What Roscoe selected works just as well at a sock hop!!

Is Brian Crane forgetting that he already has made strips similar to certain recent ones??

There actually is a dog who could identity more than 200 “toys” by name and bring them. Even more impressive, when a new “previously unnamed” toy was introduced, he was able to understand he should bring it rather than one with which he was already familiar. Impressive!

Well at least Roscoe isn’t slobbering all over those socks.

Dogs are colorblind.Except maybe Krypto.

If he was he’d be cozying up to Batman

I swear, Earl! If you don’t stop picking on Roscoe, I’m going to report you to the Humane Society. I don’t care if you are fictional!
