Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for February 22, 2012
Transcript:
Girl: So, do you want some cookies or not? Poncho: Yes, Yes I do. Poncho: Unfortunately I don't have any money. Maybe I can help you out with something instead? Girl: Like what? Poncho: I can help you get badges! Your card-counting badge, your ponzu scheme badge, your identity theft badge… Girl: Those sound like crimes. Poncho: Well what badges are they giving you… "needlecraft"? Cripes, you'll never get anywhere with needlecraft!

I don’t know how the card counters do it. Every time I count the cards there are 52.
