Slim can’t be a cannibal because “Priscilla” isn’t human.

I think Slim should call the men in white coats now.

Yup, the squirrels are coming after that nut.

So is he gonna slam all the herbivores who rely on plants for food?

Hey, plants have feelings too. Maybe he eats bugs?

Regardles, Slim should have asked first.

When the Prof was a kid he had a pet Poison Ivy plant.

Yep Ol’ Slim is going to be plant food

Gardening is plant slavery!

I think the professor is smoking one of Pricilla’s kin folk; I think her name is Mary Jane.

Herb eats cows. They eat plants so they deserve it. Wait, Slim eats plants too. Slim, RUN!!!

My wife forgot and left the water in her garden on all night. All her plants drowned. Her trial is scheduled for next week.

There is a sect in India (the Jains) who are so opposed to violence – outside of certain parameters – that the extreme members of their religion don’t believe in killing plants or animals. They wait until the plants release their seeds, which they gather up. Root vegetables are forbidden because pulling them does injury to the plant.

Professor Herb is a great character! This is a grand turn of events.
