Water you doing that for?

He’s prickly but he’s got a dry wit.

You know what they say about succulents…

Whaddaya tryin’ to do? Kill him?

And his dinner needs more sand.

Always seems to be retaining water … so that’s enough for now.

Eh shouldn’t they be eats with their feets…er…roots?

Ooh, A “Water Waiter”!

Hmmm, who’s going to get stuck with the Bill?

Guest: Waiter, my dinner taste and looks like dirt.

Waiter: Because it is dirt.

I love how nonchalant the cactus looks (with the ‘arm’ on the back of the chair) telling the water (lilly) waiter: “Nah, I’m good.”

My name is Sting and I don’t drink.

How dry I am, how dry I am! You’ll never know How dry I am!

Compared to him, she’s a heavy drinker.

Thanks, but I’m full!

“No more water! He’ll soil himself….

Skip the water. I’ll just have the desert.

Wonder what he’ll have for desert?

“and I don’t need a toothpick either, thank you”…
