I gotta say, I have not had the kind of life where "Yard Dancer" is a name I can even imagine being attached to anything but some sort of sissy lawnmower, so I had more difficulty enjoying that part of the joke.

Attractiveness is subjective, and therefore not a scientific phenomenon.
I'd formulate in in a different way: how many people have you woken up next to/how many people you actually remember getting in bed with. Indirectly, this also informs us about one's drinking habits.

Yard Dancer would be a huge pit bull. Devestatingly ugly, frothing at the mouth, but not from rabies. Anytime someone walks within 1,200 feet of Yard Dancer's large cage, he jumps about, barking like a hell demon, rattling the cage walls with his clawed feet, straining to get at the intruder. Eventually some stupid child sticks his arm in the cage and Yard Dancer tears it off with a sort of horrifying grace. Yard Dancer is put down by the county and a new law is enacted prohibiting anyone in the city from owning a pit bull.

Shucks, you guys. Shucks. Woodenteeth, as a fellow terrible excuse for a human being, tell me what you think of this little comedic hardball I've been sitting on: post-natal abortion. It's the most PC way to say baby-killing!
Nice. Very tidy.
"After 9 months the parasite is exorcised but it quite often attaches to the exterior of the host and drains vital fluids for 18 years. Due to some kind of hormone exchange the host has illogical feelings of gratitude, it is expected this is an evolutionary mechanism the parasite has developed over thousands of years".
I've always maintained that I support abortion up to the 72nd trimester.
Theescapist sticks to his guns. Good show, sir.
what kind of adult does one who breastfeeds for 18 years grow into?
Hah! Technically, you're correct. Metaphorically the "vital fluids" that are drained can be anything from basic daily energy, to monetary funds, to... well... whatever you would like.
But when speaking of Scientific Things, one thinks of nomenclature and facts and the like, not of metaphor and other such non-concrete concepts
To a scientist metaphor is all CHING CHONG WING WONG
Hah! Tell that to a physicist!
well, it's kinda like a cross between a wave and a particle...
This is clearly simile and will not be tolerated!
Damn.
Perhaps I will, woodenteeth.
Perhaps I will.
Hey, as long as the parents are ok with it, it's just a child. We need to stop giving children all these rights they haven't earned. Maybe a test to prove they won't fuck around and then blame it on their upbringing.
I was introduced to someone two nights ago, and he playfully expressed pity for me knowing the guy who introduced us. I said "As bad as he is, I'm worse." He said okay, but just stay away from his wife. I asked which girl in the bar she was, he told me, and I said "I'm gonna put in her butt first."
Once, I was at a small gathering of only female friends, and I turned to one of them and said "This is how you do it: hang out with some bitches, watch Indiana Jones, and then" and here there was a sudden lull in the room as I said "fuck them all in their butts." It actually went over surprisingly well.
We are the men who make other men less manly.
Wicked sick bastards.
"Yesterday" by The Beatles is too far.
There Are Limits.
I interpreted it as Ray not understanding that Beef was making fun of him in the fourth panel, so he increased the level of his mockery until it was obvious it was a joke.
Completely agreed. Look at how eager Ray is in Panel 5 when he thinks his friend is totally into his idea. Sometimes it takes a minute for the brain to catch up, and be all, "Yeah! Yeah!... Wait, this is my dogg. I know this dogg, and he ain't usually into Marketing or Enterprise."
'Cept greeting cards, of course, but hopefully we can all agree on the subversive anti-marketing sentiments of Beef's brush with celebrity.
I think it was the consummation of the promise inherent in the original idea.
