Love the effect of the T inserted into PINOCCHIO.

I don’t see a glass for Mr. Cricket, but he seems to have exceeded his limit.

Wait a second. Pinocchio is made of wood. It takes years for a tree to grow big enough to make anything from it. Pinocchio is therefore much older than his apparent age and should be allowed to drink the wine.

Sour grapes

He will just pee it all out through his woodpecker.

Maybe when you’re a real boy you can steal some of Geppetto’s real wine and sneak off and get real plastered.

What is he made of? I’m always hearing about a nice, oaky finish …

Looks like Jiminy needs an even smaller glass.

Ahh, Pinocchio. The story of a little wooden boy who wishes that he could be a real boy. Never realizing that he was always just a cartoon.

If he drinks too much just call him a cab.

What is the little drunk guy under Geppetto?

it must be pinotyet noir…

A blushing defeat.

The passed-out Jiminy Cricket!
