    I remember one time as I child, I was outside pretending to be a raccoon and eating random bugs I found.

    At one point, I tried to eat a stink bug. It took me FOREVER to get the awful taste out of my mouth.

    Maybe it was a rogue stinkbug? Strange she didn’t cover the lemonade and cups.

    She should name her lemonade stand Spittake.

    Kind of subtle, but replace Marigold’s “in adulthood, curses are considered rude and generally frowned upon” with “in adulthood, curse WORDS (and insults) are considered rude and generally frowned upon”, and you have a nice little message for the internet……

    Dana! what are you doing? You really need to change out Phoebe for Dakota if you are going to rise above the pack of snarky comic page kids trying to one up someone. Pheb suspicious, rude, and mean is a very weak character. She isn’t pretty, smart, or powerful enough. The snark needs an innocent character to play off of ala Abbot/Costello or it gets dull and flat. See Tatulli’s Heart vs Dean, Everyone in Sherman’s Lagoon vs Sherman. Danae vs her pony. Any might work with the debunked not so great unicorn character. You’re gonna have to spend a lot of time thinking of the meanest thing the character has to say to win in the final panel. Calvin finally imploded when Hobbs started attacking him as a physical enemy. Or if you prefer wonder and grace colliding w/childhood innocence see Dennis Menace – today = burping with soda vs adults entertaining. His statement is about wonder of soda not how stupid the adults are.

    p.s. greatest snark was Bugs. Even he got jailed when he went into the “King of the World” tirade.

    Christ could change water into wine. Marigold can change lemonade into unicorn piss.

    Mister Ed’s carrot juice (which he made according to his mother’s [or grandmother’s—I forget which] special recipe) was very popular with human customers, until they found out that its unique flavor, which everyone liked but couldn’t quite place, was due to its being strained through hay…
