    When the censor is finished with the Shih Tzu, he’ll need to deal with the Finnish Spitz

    I remember when Family Guy had to go and he kept seeing bumper stickers that reminded him of that. Things like “I love my Shih Tzu.”

    Or as Triumph would say, “This is a good strip, for me to Shih Tzu on.” Much appreciation for the hardworking censors out there. You do your job well and are good censors.

    It used to be that comics were funny. Now they, like the rest of our culture, are sinking to the lowest common denominator.

    Next Rat will have a shelter for every kind of bird, including a titmouse. After that he will draw a map of every city in Austria.

    We have a Shih Tzu / poodle mix: a Shih poo. I think that name is redundant.

    So the dog breeder’s coming home after a night of drinking. He asks his wife how his new dogs are doing. He says to his wife, “Did you think of a name for this new breed? I thought about it, but I couldn’t come up with anything good.” His wife snaps, “I don’t care, so long as you get them out of my house. Look at them! They broke out of the kennel and turned the living room into a total $#!& ZOO!” Breeder: “Thanks honey!” He staggers upstairs, writes it down, and misspells both words because he’s drunk. He wakes up hungover the next morning, sees his paper, and is too lazy to think of another name. And that’s how the shih tzu got its name.
