Well! It seems that the recent International Incident has been resolved, but I suspect there may be more shenanigans yet to come! After all, this is not the first time Pinky has been involved in a hostage situation! Thanks to Vicky Vladic of VsomethingSpeaks, who reminded me of this, and thus gave me an idea for this Fabulous Furry Friday post. As you know, Friday is the day that we take a look back at panda satire past. Huzzah! We are hostages to the weekend!
Let’s revisit the scene of Pinky’s last indiscretion! (Okay, it’s not the last one…I’ve lost count of how many naughty things she has done, but it is the only time we know of when hostages were involved.)
Excuse me, Mr. Watterson, but….
“how does you spell ‘hostage’?”
Oh dear, the Mei-hem twinkies have made Pinky mad. Uh oh.
He who laughs last, laughs…um…last.
We also had a recent techno-glitch, when I made a minor (I thought) change in how the blog landing page was set up. This little insignificant change somehow cancelled the email notification of posts for my subscribers. Oopsie. Being that my technical knowledge is extremely limited, and relies on naps, sugar laden snacks and pushing random buttons, it took a little bit before the problem sorted itself out. At least I think it did. I’ll let you know after my nap. If you missed last Friday’s post, here it is! It is ironic that the glitch happened on Friday the 13th, isn’t it?
Here is a ‘toon that demonstrates my vast technological knowledge:

Oh my, I had forgotten that Pinky had Record.
yep. Pinky has priors. #HeyWhyNotVote4Bob?
As an aside Bob T, I just did a guest post over at Mark Bialczak’s. I would be honored if you had the time to drop by for a read. https://markbialczak.com/2016/05/22/no-violins/comment-page-1/#comment-79841 Thank You.
I’ll try to get over there tomorrow. Thanks for posting.
Love the pandy kindy tech support! (Though I’m sure I’d enjoy it less if I actually needed tech support.)
Pinky asking “How does you spell hostage?” still makes me laugh long and loud. Bill Watterston should be honored.
Definitely one of my favorite Pinky quotes!
In my wildest dreams, I would love it if Bill Watterson saw this cartoon, and recognizes it for the homage it is. The man is a genius. When I read Calvin and Hobbes, they never feel stale or dated. They were, are, and will ever remain. Completely and utterly brilliant.
Always happy to remind you of Pinky’s many indiscretions 🙂
And there are many. She might start looking more reasonable when Mittens returns. It’s all about the context, isn’t it?
