Transcript:
Goat: Hey, Rat... Where's Pig today? Rat: In his room. He just got a new mattress. Goat: What kind did he get. Rat: A queen. Pig: She's more comfortable than she looks.
Notice: I will not make any more political statements on this sites are any other. I wholeheartedly apologise if I offended anyone. Sometimes rebuttals are hard to resist. I get my blood pressure up and that’s not a good thing. Hope you all will forgives me and let me start a clean slate. Thank You.
Good move, H.B.There are issues that fire me up – increase my pulse rate & pressure, etc. – but this is pretty lawless territory; no rules for debating in a civilized manner.Exposing our strongly held views in this venue can be pretty frustrating.
Beside running the risk of having our feelings hurt, there’s little chance we would be able to convince an opponent of the unreasonableness of their position with such a limited mode of communication . . . kinda like firing into the dark of night.
Rat has appeared in “The New Adventures of Queen Victoria” (in an arc that starts here), but I haven’t seen anyone from NAQV appear in PB4S yet. How about it, Stephan?
I, for one, support your thinking on this. We all know the type who love to hear themselves talk. Here we have the equivalent in folks who get off on reading their contributions and seeing their nom de plume in print. Some pontifications are so longwinded that I am wading through too much egotistical logorrhea to find the occasional smile. Don’t feel obligated to write every day.

A “queen” sized bed

What country is the queen from? And I wonder whether the king size mattress would be less comfortable, due to all the armor.

At least the queen isn’t RuPaul..

I wonder if there’s an alternate version with Pig resting on a gay guy.

That’s one mattress you will have to feed and let use your bathroon.

Oh, Pig! —I’m so sorry, your Highness; he’s not too clear on ambiguous words and phrases! Cartoon-Boy, I mean.

Funny, I thought at first she looked like a he.

That is just wrong in soooo many ways. That’s why I love Pearls!

Isn’t this going to cost a bit too much for you Pig?

Why do the humans in this strip always have noses that look like misplaced, crinkle-cut french fries?
Alphaanddelta over 12 years ago
Mmm. French Fries.

I hope that Queen is not one of those inflatables.

The Victorian seems a bit larger.

Boy, the monarchy ain’t what it used to be… if even a queen needs to pad her resume.

Poor pig, got taken again, that queen looks lumpy for serta n . . . ☻

PRICELESS!

Long live the Queen! Be careful of sleeping too close to the crown – or the teeth, for that matter. Will your bed fight you if you try to plump it up?

Might as well keep her, Pig; she’s a better catch than Pigita, and it doesn’t look like SP is going to bring back Sweet Fanny.

A King bed would be too kinky for me.
Thehag over 12 years ago
I thought the red queen lost her head.

I don’t have a fluffy cat but my neighbor does.
joegeethree over 12 years ago
Pig made a good choice. A king would have been uncomfortable with that pointy bump in the middle.
Scott S over 12 years ago
God Save The Queen!

A mistress is something half way between a mister and a mattress.

There are so many things I’ve considered saying about this one – but wisdom demands silence.
