....I really like this one, but I don't get the punchline. I like the freak out lines on the penis, I like the penis falling off of the table...but what is that? Is that a Kit-Kat bar? A snap-off exacto blade?
I guess I'll just have to wait for someone to enlighten me.

[wombat]

It's tweezers.  I thought it was like in the fable, like he was removing a thorn from the penis's paw - but isn't that backwards?  Isn't the little prey animal supposed to remove a thorn from the paw of the big scary predator?

OK, so where's Chris when we need him to cut off our usual baseless speculations with actual information?  Dang West Coast slugabeds.

Yay!  I knew it was tweezers!  perhaps cause I see them around the house too often not to recognise 'em on the spot...

Anyway, I considered he was using the tweezer on the penis to keep it from falling and he's so light, he didn't need a bigger device... of course, I'm simple minded at times.. especially at close to 7am without sleep.

I thought beef was simply shaking hands with Mr penis, and utilised lab tweezers so that his proportionately huge paws wouldn't smother the little guy. It's a lovely image.

[arlucasinc]

See now, I saw it as Beef was using the tweezers to loosen the grip of the one last hanger-on. All the other mice are off the table. This one, too, must go.

Not such a lovely image.

I love the strip because it's open to so many interpretations.  Is Beef saving the penis?  Capturing it?  Holding it still so's he can hit it with the hammer?  Does Beef even know what he's doing?

Not such a lovely image.

indeed, he appeared weilding the hammer and was distraught at the the thought of *mushing* mice, but lucklily all but one fled.  left with the thought of mushing that one, he set the hammer down and got tweezers to pry up the paw of the penis so it would plummet to his doom.

so, beef equates prying the paw up of a penis holding onto a ledge so it might plummet to its doom, with lab science.

I think those are rats.  Proportionate to Roast Beef, the rodents appear to be only a little smaller than Todd, which would make them very large mice.

[V-Adore]

Those look to be rats, yeah.

And I love the ambiguity, too -- you really can read this strip as everything from "using the tweezers to capture the rat, albeit sort of half-assedly" to "using the tweezers to try to desperately save the rat." Also, the alt text is goddamn priceless. BUT AT WHAT COST indeed, Mr. Kazenzakis!

[Limmo]

 Dang West Coast slugabeds.

Hey!

[wombat]

I am not loving the ambiguity.  I desire clarification.

[V-Adore]

.. well, now that you mention it, I'm starting to wonder myself.

It becomes eerier the longer you think about it.

[wombat]

 Dang West Coast slugabeds.

Hey!

Aren't you some kind of musician?  You didn't get up early, you've been up all night.

The dachshund needs to jump on the bed now and wake Mr Onstad up.

[Silverberg]

This strip's rainbow of interpretations is beautiful. I almost don't want Onstad to reveal his original intent.

[Limmo]

Aren't you some kind of musician?  You didn't get up early, you've been up all night.

I'm a marketing director.  With a toddler.  I haven't been up all night since...well, since September 17, actually, but it weren't because of no music, I can tell you that.
