Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for September 07, 2023

A glowstick.

What’s small, hairless and doesn’t know when to quit?

I gotta say, I’m enjoying this extended storyline, especially putting Phoebe and Dakota in a pinch and them having to/trying to work together to get out of it

Wait—you have to break the egg BEFORE using it?? Well, that explains why no one ever wants seconds when I fix scrambled eggs.

But cats ignore dumb human rules anyway.

Will they eventually figure out that they need to pretend the riddle is really hard, and delay, before answering?

“I’m gonna ignore your dumb human rules” is not due to the Sphinx cat being a Sphinx.

It’s due to the Sphinx cat being a cat.

A tray of ice cubes.

It’s almost like Gollum and Bilbo, except Bilbo doesn’t get to ask any questions.

You should know Phoebe that cats make their own rules that’s how it’s been and always will be

A word to the wise kitty. If you get much more irritating, even Phoebe is going to want to punt you out of town.

This shouldn’t take too long, the way it’s going.

Or any rules. Or humans. Except when they’re about to use their opposable thumbs to serve something to the cat.

What’s black and white and red all over? That riddle has many answers!

Ugh! What a sore loser! Come to think of it, the original Sphinx was also a sore loser. Didn’t she committed suicide when her riddle was solved?

Someone blow the nose off the sphinx cat. That’ll teach it. Then you’ll have a catless nose, and a noseless cat.

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

What walks on 4 legs and is getting a bath if they don’t knock of the “practice” nonsense?

Normally I wouldn’t condone animal cruelty…but it’s starting to get real tempting to just dropkick this “sphinx” outta here.

What can you sit on; sleep on; and brush your teeth with?

That’s from a late-1980s movie.

Edward Nygma you’re not, cat.

A horse or a cat.

I wonder if the riddler had days like these? Especially with the age of the internet.

Why does the cat have a collar and tag?

a sweet circuit bent B. Mewsic, duh
