Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Rat, I'd like you to meet my friend, Bob. He's a mechanical engineer... you'll have to excuse hi, though... he thinks he's missing something. Rat: Charisma? Man: My keys. Rat: My mistake. Pig: Women sure love all those pencils, Bob.

Say, what’s Bob the bag-headed croc doing today? I was hoping he’d die in an amusing way.

Why are they always called “Bob”??

Bob the Mechanical Engineer makes a frowny face in panel 3 without benefit of a mouth! Excellent! Pig gigs him, unwittingly (as always).

Fervent hope there’s no lead in Bob’s pencils…

Bad Stephan!
Haven’t we talked about mocking half your online audience??
(The other half is female.)
And Juke…. ahem…. the lead in anybody’s pencil is an unsuitable topic for discussion in a family forum.

I doubt you’ll find lead in any pencil. Don’t look too close, however… just in case!

I wonder if Pastis is confusing charisma with charm? ….not the same thing.

Am I nerd too? I walk around with a mechanical pen clipped to my t shirt’s collar at work. I thought I was just a working man who frequently encountered paper work and tended to break those pencils if they where pocketed.

I could write an ESSAY on how insulting Rat is.

Hmm, an engineer who speaks without a mouth. If only someone could make that into a comic strip!

That’s the one great thing about the holidays: you may not have charisma or presence, but you can still have Christmas presents.

I had one of those in my hand around 1975 and couldn’t muster enough nerdness to actually slip it in. Made me the man I am today. Shaddup.

Hey, at least he’ll die with a punchline.
A line from his fist to the Doctors and Nurses faces.

BOB: “Yes they do, Pig. But my lack of a mouth turns them off…”
tegm almost 13 years ago
I actually really like engineers, but they have to be at least somewhat good looking.
