What's Mallard raving about today?
Dogs.
In today's cleverly disguised diatribe against miscegenation, Mallard manages to prove that not only is he a bigot, but that he can't count.
By my calculation, a Labrabeagaschnoodle would be a mixture of a Labrador, Beagle, Schnauzer, and Poodle...4 breeds. Even if we were to be generous and assume there was a Golden Lab, Black Lab, Schnauzer, Miniature Schnauzer, Poodle, and a Toy Poodle involved in this orgy, that still only brings us to 7 breeds.

Since the "content" of this week's strips make no sense whatsoever, let me ask a more technical question:
Concerning the caricature of the dog-owner: Any bets on how long it will be before Tinsley gets sued by the creators of "Men in Black II" for ripping off their idea of the "Ballchinians"?
Tinsley, for the love of God, stop drawing penises.
Goddamnit, Tinsley! Internal consistency, please. If a duck can dress in tweed sportcoats and talk and do news reporting, then dogs should be fully autonomous creatures as well.
Am I right?
It's duck season, anyway. Mallard ought to think twice before ragging on a dog.
Some people draw comics because they are skilled artists. (Prince Valiant)
Some people draw comics because they have something to say. (Doonesbury)
Some people draw comics because it's a soap opera that can't die. (Mary Worth)
Some people draw comics because they're geniuses (Calvin and Hobbes)
Some people draw comics because they're human (Funky Winkerbean)
Some people draw comics because they're legends (Peanuts)
And some people draw comics because they think it's an easy job and chance to vent without making sense (....)
Is Mallard dissing the noble mutt?
Or designer mutts?
Aw geez. Why did I have to be right about this being a story arc? And it's not even a rant about anything new or unusual.
I just want to say that this really pissed me off when I saw it. Does Tinsley even realize what he's implying about multi-racial people here? Grrr...
