Someday, eddurd, I hope to be able to shake your hand. And tell you my chicken joke. It’s the sort of joke that can only be told properly in person, but if we should ever be fortunate enough to meet, …
For those who may not be aware, tigers aren’t monogomous, and are in fact rather casual about mating. The females enter heat every 3 to 9 weeks, but are only receptive toward mating for a few days. They actively try to attract a male with special scent markings and vocalizations, and after copulation the pair go their separate ways.
Lions, of course, collect in prides, with a single male maintaining something of a small harem of females which are off limits to other males.
H. T. has a sister?
By adoption. She’s actually a cougar.
Oh god.

Honestly. Has he no pride?
…There may be forgiveness for that pun, someday.
Someday.
… maybe…
I don’t believe him. He’s lion.
That’s really the mane issue here.
He’ll have his harem soon, but they’ll all leave him by the end of this summer, I believe.
Because pride goeth before the fall.
* Goeth is not a verb often used by amateur writers. It is a pro verb.
…Did you construct that one, or did it sear itself across your brain in a flash of insight? I could see it going either way.
Definitely a flash.
Either way, I approve most heartily. Well done.
That’s about the level you need to be on to consistently use “thee” and “thou” correctly. You know, the pro nouns.
When sentient lion reminds you that he is still indeed a lion.
Ahh, the subtle comedic depth.

Leo starts herding cats…pretty soon he moves on up to congressional leadership.
He has more spine than many in those positions, and Leo’s roar is probably pretty loud.
“Pretty loud” is not the same as the biggest blast of noise there.
Congressional _Democrats_: now, there’s a job for a cat-herder.

Yep, the whole comic continues to be one large buildup for a “goink” joke 😉
“Hogamus Higamus
Men are Polygamous
Higamus Hogamus
Women Monogamous”
Women have at most one wife? Seems legit.
An old poem, written by a woman who denied it in later years…
H.T. has a sister? The fact that there are two of them out there is enough to give one shivers. Leo may have dodged a bullet there.
Hey now, sisters aren’t eactly like their brothers!
