I think Rob is wrong. Yes, Bucky was being obnoxious but being locked up for obnoxious artistic expression is a violation of freedom of speech.If we locked up everyone for obnoxious artistic expression, Stephan Pastis would be facing multiple life sentences – to run sequentially, not concurrently. (Muah ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaa)
Oxygen is in the 8th place on the periodic table, the “8” would be a superscript, but on the left.
Upper-right indicates oxidation state, which for Oxygen is usually -2. Highest oxidation state is Osmium (Os), which would be “…Os8” (until they recently found an Iridium tetroxide cation w/ +9 ox state).
Solution: Rob has figured out a way to multiply an oxygen atom to the 8th power and it’s called “Bucky” – a lot of gas.
But what do I know. I flunked Gen. Chem, then passed by the skin of my teeth, then withdrew (backed away slowly) from Organic Chem.
Bucky is not being punished for making the picture (free speech), he is being punished for sending it to Rob’s boss. We don’t know boss’s reaction, but Rob could be in trouble.

If Rob is punishing Bucky for being stupid, then he should give Bucky a lifetime sentence in the closet.

Are we sure it is 0 (zero) and not O, oxygen? It does look zero-ish, but oxygen’s atomic number is 8.

Oxygen’s atomic number is 8, but rob is still punishing Bucky for his freedom of speech so he’s still a zero.

Yeah, technically Bucky’s right in this one: he IS a political prisoner …

The oxygen tee is just a reminder for Rob to breath; a necessary reminder around Bucky…

Typical of that perspective. If you disagree with someone, instead of coming up with a cohesive argument, you dismiss them as “stupid”.

Plenty to punish then, huh, Rob?
Dodging furious attack from Bucky …
I love ya, Buck, but your shenanigans are pretty out of this world sometimes.
