Eeg. This won't go well when the authorities find out. :? Not even the ferrets can pay their way out of this (and shouldn't). The only way the pack could get out of this might be throwing Jack to the wol................ wait........... <facepalm>.

Hmm... Jack in the currency market as well? Also, CAD is also short for "Computer Aided Design" (Or "Computer Aided Drafting" if you're old school...) 110 is binary for 6, this is the 6th strip in the "Jack of One Trade" arc... Hmm...

To be fair, I don't think they fully understand how the laws and technology works and are just basically doing what they normally do in the wild.

However, Miles should know how the laws and technology works, which is why i'm wondering why he's letting Jack continue with this operation in the first place?

actually, it can be written with as many or as few nits as you want unless you're actually putting it into a computer. 110 are the significant bits because everything to the left of them is 0. just like you could choose to write 006, but you only write 6 because the leading zeroes are only place holders.

we now return you to your regularly scheduled discussion.

110 and CAD are valid hexadecimal numbers. 110CAD -> 1117357 -> LSELIII?

I have just realized how small Poncho is. I mean, Jack is not the biggest wolf over there but Poncho is a full head shorter.

well this strip's not that great an indicator, he looks smaller cause he's farther from our point of view. In the last strip with him, he was also a bit farther from us.

he's about the same size as Sasha. Rick, I still say we need a height chart for these characters

I'll second this, heck if Rick is willing to entertain the idea I might even sponsor the height spread sheet to make it worth his time.

Seems like this one keeps coming up for a wide variety of reasons. It's not the greatest perspective in the world, but with Jack AND Poncho standing/leaning against/near a wall, we can at least get a decent viewing on how tall they are. +1 for being right about Sasha and Poncho being about the same height. Were you thinking about the linked strip in that comment?

yeah, when I said "the last strip with him" I actually meant the last arc he appeared in. I should have been more clear.

Exactly that stip came into my mind too. And in the present one he is not so far behind Jack.

You know guys, there have been many threads requesting this same thing. What I suggest is next time Rick has Open Commissions, everyone who gets a slot pools the money together and FORCES Rick to make a size chart!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

But back on topic, Itsuki and Poncho are some of the only pets that always had clothes/ accessories since their appearance, am I right? I think so...

Then again, they are new.

Since nobody's mentioned this yet it makes me wonder if I've just never seen it written this way, but shouldn't "sawwed" be "sawed" (or "sawn")?

yeah, I already saw that (yes, I know, I'm terrible for jokes XD)

By the way, Itsuki must be the first animal driving some kind of transport in the comic so far (well, besides the Bigglesworth with the karts). I wonder if he got a license or something to drive that thing :?

Why paying when you can just break into his house and repeat the words "Make a housepets! size chart." over and over and over and over again to his ear while he is sleeping until he subconciously doest it?

Romantic? What does this have to do with romance? Besides, you can't discard it until you try it.

He probably didn't mean "romantic" in the lovey-dovey sense. "Romantic" has other meanings, many of which involve fantasy, regardless of whether it involves love or not.

"Romantic Comedy" is a popular movie [and literary] genre. The hero, typically played by someone like Tom Hanks, is a lovable bumbling stalker. By means of a series of increasingly creepy schemes that would get anyone arrested and slapped with a restraining order if they tried it in real life he wins his target's heart and they run off together or get married in an ending so sweet it would give a ghost diabetes.

Also, I find it always cute when the canines in this comic begin to pant, dunno why o.o
