I thought these were all funny… but I too don’t see what’s grossgusting about the telescope one. Maybe because I’m nearer to the dad’s age than to the kid’s age.

Yes, Carolyn, I had to read Bad Seed’s remark twice. Parrots, though, probably don’t make good eating. Some of these were quite good, particularly the LOOSE PARTS, the CLOSE TO HOME, & the BREVITY. I love the thoughts that must surround the dogs’ observation. They may decide that it is eat or be eaten.

Carolyn, I, too, read Bad Seed’s remark twice. He/She apparently hasn’t yet cooked the parrot, and I don’t think that there would be much meat there, anyway.

This is a funny set of cartoons, particularly the LOOSE PARTS, CLOSE TO HOME, & Guy & Rodd’s. I love how the dogs are realizing their possible fate.

Did anyone else think Bad Seed (#12) actually did cook his/her parrot?! It took me a long time to realize what he/she meant!

Like I said, I UNDERSTAND the ‘ew’ reaction, I just disagree.

As sad as it’s always made me to lose a pet…they’re still animals, not humans. Eating them would not be equivalent to cannibalism.

@Kamino Neko - Do you have pets? Certain people used to tease me about cooking my parrot (wings, drumsticks, etc), and although I eventually learned to laugh along, I always found it as gross as talking about cooking and eating your own children.

Maybe if you took sled pigs or sled cows instead of sled dogs …

Isn’t the telescope one Peter Walder’s “Flight Deck”? It’s not listed in the tags…

And why is that one in the Ewww category anyway?

Loose Parts is a LOL for me.
