Monty by Jim Meddick for September 13, 2022

Just fill it with water. Cheap, quick, eco-friendly (except for the ants).

No tolerance for colonials

I think Jarvis was right when he decided the best pet for Sedgwick is one that isn’t really there at all!

Do they make that spray in people size ?

But from down here they look like people!

Ant-man and his tall sidekick Mantis.

That would be my wife.

Odd. I never thought of doing such a thing.

See, that’s exactly my view of ant farms.

huh. I’m surprised he actually went and got the spray himself!

If only there was a fan built into the top of the ant farm, to blow the poison back into the little bugger’s fat face.

In college my roommate bought an ant farm but we were too impatient to mail away for the ants. So we collected some from outside. We didn’t realize they were from two colonies, and days later saw the remnants of the most savage battle since Game of Thrones Season 8 — severed body parts, spewed acid all around the sand tunnels; none of the ants left standing alive.

Funny, the ants said the same thing.

I love that there are two completely different story arcs : Sedgwick and his obedient staff as well as Monty and all his friends. Has there ever been a series where they overlap?

Ants: “Spray us! Please! No way we are going to live with an egocentric, self-serving little runt like you!”

What’s for lunch? :)

Coulda just set the ants free in the woods. But then, no punchline.

Murderer! You fiend! Slaughtering hundreds of industrious little homemakers because you scorn them as “a filthy, repulsive colony of insects”!?

Shameful. A disgrace to the Nuttingham Name!

that’s because Sedgwick isn’t really there
