[ Freshly Squeezed ]

Title text: When life gives you lemons, make the rules

I can't imagine how much practice it took for him to be able to do that without spilling. :P

Not sure if Jack has extreme balancing ability, or wood/fence colored table cloth. XD
Ok, it's probably just wood colored table cloth.

All "work" and no play makes Jack a thirsty boy.

Poor Poncho, always getting the short end of the stick.
I also wonder if Jack will get his just deserts by the end of this arc?

Well ... in Jack´s defense, he is Poncho´s older brother and older brothers usually do that kind of stuff ... so ... this is not really a good defense

I think Rick has been very slowly foreshadowing this, it's like, "good things come to those who serve their older sibling"... I feel your pain Pancho... ;)

When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your **** lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

Hehe... Poncho's ready to snap, I'm sure. X3

"Fair as in I'm bigger, therefore my thirst is bigger, therefore I need a bigger drink. We each get exactly what we need and no more and that's fair, right? Right? Ah, Poncho... What are you doing with that baseball bat?"

Wait, have I missed something? Who is Mr. London?

My guess is that Jack has it balanced between his hip and the fence. He has skills. ;)

Jack must have had practise in drinking large volumes of lemonade in one go. It certainly looks like a lot.

Just a thought: where is Jack going to carry his wallet when he pays the fine? He has no collar or clothes and he'd be a mite inconvenienced if he carried it in his paw. zit'd get all wet and gross in his mouth. So where will he put it?

I think it's just a matter of time before Poncho snaps. And when he does we'll be here watching.

I suspect Jack has some chugging experience:
"Zicke, Zacke, Zicke, Zacke, Hoi, Hoi, Hoi!"

To be fair, Jack's probably pretty dry after marking his receipts.

I'm wondering how he's balancing the tray on the fence, because I am pretty sure that's the shrubbery on the bottom of the fence. Poor Poncho though doing all the hard work and then this.

I think those are shadows, not shrubbery.I don't think bushes will have that kind of regularity. Something similar to the 'torn' curtains from a previous strip.

Dairy Queen, like John Cusack, is a universal constant.

Awwww, I was about to post the youtube link to the kinect text video of that speech, but you beat me to the reference.

Ever since Portal 2 came out, every time someone mentions lemonade I think of that speech. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

As Cave Johnson already said:
"When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your muffins and cookies lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
This strip obviously is not about that.

Poncho may have some hidden connection to Aperture Science and may get influenced by the lemonade to ask them about their combustible lemons... to burn Jack's house down.

But... Jack's house is his house, so... Combustible lemon to burn the money?
