The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for February 15, 2025

Tea party over!

Guaranteed to tickle your tummy if swallowed whole.

Who he the hunchback of Nagasaki?

That fish has every reason to frown!

Worst tea party ever.

By the look on his face you can tell that he is feeling a little nigiri about the situation.

Start worrying when she offers chocolate brownies.

i guess that’s better than pork sushi.

Is the swallowing of live goldfish back as a fad?

Once went on a boat scuba dive where one of the divers did some spear fishing. When he came back up, he made some ceviche. That was definitely the freshest and best tasting I ever had.

No! Not the goldfish.

A guy who worked for me had taught English in Japan for 6 years. He went back to visit his friends and they brought him to a sushi bar that was usually only frequented by locals. The owner, upon hearing there was an American there came out and made a fuss and promised something special. He brought a bowl with six octopi swimming in it. My friend and another guy ate them because they couldn’t let the owner lose face.

I didn’t know a fish could express fear much less know what she was saying.

That’s one strong little girl!

I don’t think the fish wants to be sashimi, and I don’t think your guest is interesting in eating the fish.

Sashimi always gives him Ichibans.

Anyone notice that the price of eggs are up, but the cost of chicken is down? I guess we’re eating the sick chickens they’re destroying.

“Is that a raw fish in your pocket, or are you just happy sashimi?”

One of the first clues your child may be a psychopath.

Dr. Takao Ameku sez you’re gonna get intestinal anisakiasis and bowel obstruction.

Gasp! She’d really give up her pet fish for a tea party?

love the expression on the fish

Getting a raw deal.

Sorry, kid, I’d prefer Wanda.

Good time to turn vegetarian.
