Goldie-(Mouth moving, but out of sync) Ha! You will not defeat me! HIIIIIISSSSSIST!! Lupin-(Mouth moving, but sound is too fast) No! I WILL defeat you! Ha! MERRROWRRRR!!
As rear toe beans have become a delightfully common sighting, I propose more specificity be required of our champion spotters, such as RSOIYFRTB […In Your Face…], RSORTBOG […On Glass], and today’s example, RSORAFTBITSF [Rare Sighting of Rear and Front Toe Beans In The Same Figure]. Orbsters may submit examples as they appear in print or from the archives. I’ve preemptively shredded scaeva’s submission form so as to avoid his snark.
I was right! Freeze tag combat! By the way, I was completely unable to find that strip if anyone knows which it is. Meanwhile, Lupin, it is a bit at odds with “ladies first,” if you’re just going to spit at her. Then again, that’s just what a frenemy would do.
BCN has made it over 15,000 followers on GoComics. It was at 14,999 yesterday when I checked and today it is at 15,010, right now. I have seen it go down before 1 or 2, but I think it is pretty safely at the 15,000 mark. I am a bit of a nerd so I keep track of the number of followers most days. I am not quite nerdy enough to actually keep track of dates, I just write the amount down in the margins of the notebook I use at work. I only write it down if it goes up. There have been a few rare times when it has gone down, like I said, I don’t record that. I started using this notebook shortly after I started to work from home because of COVID. I didn’t start writing down the numbers right away, but the first one I did write down was 11,924, which would have been a little less than 3 years ago.
Three times I tried to type a comment, and three times Smudge turned off my laptop. The little…rascal…had the gall to look me in the eye and smirk when he did it. Ah well, gotta love him.
The Seattle Times is asking for suggestions for a strip to replace Dilbert. If you want to suggest BCN, their email is editorfeedback@seattletimes.com.
Code The Enforcer’s comment about David Attenborough made me think of MythBusters and Adam imitating him (David Attenborough, NOT Code the Enforcer ); which got me thinking. My poor memory prevents me from remembering if an Orbster has already suggested this.
Wouldn’t it be cool if a Sunday strip depicted the crew of cats and friends doing an episode of MythBusters ( or maybe call it Tale-Busters)? And just like in the world of BCN, all these great people live on. Possible casting choices:
Narrator Robert Lee – Puck
Jamie Hyneman – Elvis
Adam Savage – Tommy
Tory Belleci – Lupin
Kari Byron – Goldie
Grant Imahara – Burt
Jessi Combs – Tabitha
Scottie Chapman (can’t forget one of the original “Build Team” ) – Sophie
The last panel reminds me of a sound on the Mac called “moof.” It’s still available, and I use it with the small timer app I finally found to tell me to get up and “MOOOOFFF!” every hour.

Naughty cats! No swearing!
That’s what we call growling and hissing here at home. I guess we’re lucky in that we seldom have our furkids swearing.
