Pickles by Brian Crane for February 08, 2025

Roscoe got his licks in.

And more if you’re a beetle.

Reminds me of the question in the old commercials: How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

The cone is still tasty

Fewer, not less.

That explains why Roscoe likes going for walks to the ice cream parlor with the guys!

Roscoe’s gonna get brain freeze

Roscoe?

Hope that wasn’t chocolate.

It jumped out of the cone.

Are you eating the cone now, or giving that to Roscoe too?!

Luckily Nelson kept his!

Sure hope that wasn’t chocolate ice cream. Could put him at the vet’s.

The ice cream is gray. Must be squid ink ice cream.

This is an Oldie but a Goodie …

The colour of it reminds me of charcoal ice cream, if it is, Roscoe will be okay, I never tried it.

One gulp and gone!

Roscoe REWLS. Best character in the strip by a Country Mile!!

I’ve had this happen – it’s because the server doesn’t push the ice cream down into the cone, just lets it rest lightly on top. Very annoying and very expensive these days!

Yes, Earl, we know THAT fact, but how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop ?

You’re feeling weak ? Why don’t you lay down and sleep, Earl ? Ain’t it dark wrapped up in that tarp, Earl ? The cops came by to bring Earl in. They searched the house high and low. Then they tipped their hats, and said “thank you, ladies. If you hear from him, let us know.” Well, the weeks went by, and Spring turned to Summer, and Summer faded into Fall. And it turns out he was a missing person, who nobody missed at all.

Much less if you’re a dog. Now Roscoe will have intense brain freeze.
