Rubes by Leigh Rubin for May 10, 2021

The Kid is on his own.

I’m not sure kid and kid qualify as homonyms. Whether goat or human, it means the young of the species.

Oh, for the love of words!! Thank you Leigh

Wow… if you make a comment here do it with kid gloves.

Actually, the Mythbusters “busted” the myth of a bull in a china shop. I kid you not.

Just outside of the frame, a pig is entering a garden supply store that sells natural fertilizer. I’m sure he’ll be happy.

These days a lot of stores qualify to call themselves a China shop, especially Wal-Mart. I never go in there anymore.

A kid in a candy store but the other one….?

Language is fun.

I hate how the kids now are all called kiddos. UGH!

Some places in Hawaii allow “Bare Feet”. Does that mean grizzlies and pandas are welcome?

Some rabbit relatives should be wary of Barber Shops: “Hair Cuts”.

Wish it was a night shot, otherwise we could see the cow jump over the moon, and she would say, “Hey, I am trying to rhyme here.”

Not only is today’s strip full of bull, the cartoonist is also kidding around.

Not a homonym.

Kid does not mean “young of the species” because the young of dogs, cats, horses, or any other species on the planet, are never referred to as “kid”, except for humans and goats.
