    I heard that the spoon ran off with a dish while the dog was laughing.

    I would hate to see Rat’s rendition of the “Hey-Diddle-Diddle” line of the dish running away with the spoon.

    Rat draws funnier cartoons than Cartoon-Boy’s pun-strips.

    That’s really cute. Who knew that Rat can actually be funny when he wants to be?

    Think of the thousands of children that read this strip. They are terribly confused and traumatized now.

    Is this why I can never find a spoon in the drawer when I want one?

    Apparently the way you can tell a male fork from a female is that the male has an extra prong.

    Or as Key & Peele called it once, a “fpoon”.Google “the continental breakfast”. It’s hilarious.

    Just once I’d like to see him draw a female doctor; no wonder in real life everyone mistakes us for nurses, we’re never represented in TV Shows, films, books, comic strips, etc…
