    She was impressed by his parents, thinking that Larry would change in time…

    Oh, what an imbecilic son Lawrence’s parents have.

    It HAS to skip a generation. That’s the only reason that two intelligent, rational parents could possibly have produced a son who’s that much of an idiot, yet have a daughter-in-law and a grandson who both should be in MENSA.

    maybe Larry did a few too many drugs in his adolescent years.

    Ok, it may seem weird to ask this, but why is everyone walking around nude, except for Larry’s parents?

    Larry must have been kicked in the head by a hippo when he was young.

    I wonder if Larry really does have sense enough to be embarrassed? Ma and Pa Croc can’t be completely unaware of how stupid their son is!

    Nobody seems to have noticed that Larry is not only doing something stupid, he’s also wrong.

    It CAN’T be “harder den it looks.”

    It’s got to be SOFTER “den it looks,” if you can squish the whole thing into a beer mug.

    I’m waiting for Zebra to meet Larry’s folks. Oh sure they may try to catch him and eat him eventually (unless their really like Junior and are vegetarians) but I bet first their willing to sit down with him and dicuss things in a civilized manner without it being a blatantly stupid attempt to fool him into letting them kill him.

    Hey, at least Larry isn’t trying to shove an entire beer mug into his butt…

    I sure Larry’s parents are regretting the fact that they didn’t eat him when he was young.

    Great absurdist humor, and it’s even better in color than in my cheap daily paper!

    After they laid the batch Larry was in, Larry’s parents should have abandoned the egg mound. Left em to the racoons. If you know there’s a ‘bad egg’ in there, there’s no shame in crocodile society for leaving it.

    Will this experience cause Larry’s behind to smart, or just make it smaller? In other words, Butt Wiser or Butt Light?

    Lovecraft and NotATroll…. gwarsh…thanks… I think…It’s kinda scary if it means I’m catching anything Stephan has…cos as far as I know he’s incurable.

    OK. This is a serious case of “T.C.A.R.” (That Croc Ain’t Right).

    Made me laugh, but more out of absurdity, and pity for Larry.

    Seriously—where does Pastis GET this stuff?
