I'm really sort of worried that "sitting on a canary" is slang for something I don't know about.
I doubt if it's just grinding a small yellow bird into the seat of a chair with your asscheeks. It is difficult to imagine how someone could be "good" at such a thing.

Great strip: Teodor's eyebrows slightly askew through most of the strip is the perfect look. I always love to add a "FUCK THE WORLD!" to any moment of rising anger (be it mine or a friend's). Also, the visual of the "basketball equipment" just makes the anonymous support group local that much more visceral...those things are always in some room at a YMCA or community center, aren't they?

It's odd, isn't it? I've always figured that he was a member of the group, maybe a tenured guy who was pretty much over his problems and stuck around to help the new kids. I think Mr. Gary uses Arthur's weaknesses (1. a now renewed and overactive trust in authority figures, like counselors or maybe even mayors, perhaps even a strong attraction to them; 2. Pole smokin' jones) for his own benefit (1. not having to actually counsel and getting Arthur do his work for him; 2. beautiful acts of love from the sandpaper-esque tongue of a cat).

As it turns out, Pat would indeed know something so beautiful, in time.
Heavy foreshadowing here
He still won't know it. Just because he turns gay doesn't mean he will ever get laid. This is because Pat's a dick.
But everyone needs a project!
Rod Huggins, as it turns out, is into dicks. Which makes sense, given that he's gay.
Wouldn't that mean that dicks are into him? He is a gay man, not a catheter.
