I’m sorry – not – but I am compelled to condemn this cartoon, and the next day’s one as well. An untrained and unequipped person should never, never, never, NEVER enter a burning building, even if it’s to save another person. The risk is much too great and no pet is worth it. Losing a person is bad, but if the rescuer perishes while attempting a rescue that means two people, not just one, died because of the fire.
I implore, nay, demand, the cartoon’s authors retract the two comics and issue an apology for their seriously mistaken effort at humor.
If the 99 percentile comment in panel 4 refers to the 1 in 10 hunting success in panel 3 you goofed. 9 in 10 failure in hunting puts Arlo’s cat safely in the 90th percentile, not the 99th!
No, in this case he was an out and out idiot.
