Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for November 26, 2024

Play date is off-That’s For sure!

Sure Hammie, you can get one but you keep in your room and take care of it.

As she scrubs the lice out of his hair.

Wanda is right. The last thing you need is a bedbug infestation!

Just one? Not likely.

Not a good choice for a pet, Hammie!

It may be too late.

I guess Hammie doesn’t count his fleas as pets.

Bedbugs are NOT pets!

If Trent has ONE bedbug, Trent has a whole bunch of bedbugs.

In 2016, my wife took our oldest son to Disney World, in Florida. (I guess the one in California is called Disney Land, she just told me.) She got a suite, in the hotel in Disney World. Guess what? She brought bedbugs back with her. We wondered why we were getting bites on our arms, and me on the ears. The ears for goodness sake. It was a mess getting rid of them. Disney apologized and paid, but it was a mess. As a side note, did you know that those suckers can live for a year without eating and they hate alcohol. That’s how you know you have them.

Bad boy Baby Blue bitten by Bedbug?

Head lice would have been a better alternative as they’re easier to get rid of.

Not good, ban on Trent. Not to nitpick, that bathtub is too full of water.

Hilarious!

just one?

I work in pest control. That’s a no from me, chief.

Given the MacPherson’s record with pets, it would die as soon as Hammie brought it home.

Oh god. It’s probably already too late.

Aren’t bedbugs so small that they’re basically undetectible?

This whole play date thing is sooo sad. When I was a kid a “play date” was heading out to meet your friends right after you finished breakfast and your chores. You played until lunchtime, had lunch and then went back out until supper time, eat supper and then back out until the street lights came on. NOW THATS a play date, and we did it every weekend, and every day in the summer.

Good call on Wanda’s part, bedbugs are something you DON’T want in your bed!

No kidding!

A pet? Yeah, that’s a big NO. They’re not really that bad, in a way, just disgusting and they can be hard to get rid of. If you have patience and everybody in the building cooperates, you can do it.

Only Hammie would be jealous of that.

so… lotsa pets (or pests!) you mean…

“….so you won’t be tempted to take Trent’s pet.”
