Will Opus survive Milo’s “help”?

Milo is enjoying this way too much.

That’s pretty harsh.

Looks more like a Ding Dong

This technique didn’t have legs.

Hunger always wins…

Aversion therapy…

“There’z”?

The parallel to pharmacological treatments?

As the therapy loses efficacy over time, the size of the bat — and the wielding therapist — increases.

Wait until Opus finally bites into it and finds out it’s a hockey puck.

A slapper robot from Iain Bank’s Culture series.

When I was in the 4th grade a classmate bit into a Hostess Ding Dong and it had several larval worms in it. That stopped me from wanting to eat Ding Dongs for quite a while.

Zingers were originally a Dolly Madison product. Many of us of a certain age remember the ads on Peanuts TV specials. At some point Hostess acquired them. I don’t know when that was exactly or if Zingers were sold under the Hostess brand in 1987.

Forget about zingers and other Hostess treats. If you’re from the Philadelphia are, Tastykakes cakes and pies are the only way to go!

Milo reveals his sadistic tendencies. But is poor, battered Opus a masochist?
