It was dark when I woke. This is a ray of suhnnsie.
Hey look, Grape DOES have a second part.
Grape: The sequel!
Grape 2: Electric Boogaloo
Lol Dr.Steel Reference
“We’re all out of Gold Stars so I’ll put a smiley face instead”
^-^
I really wish this is how it had been in the play, this was hilarious! The stars and smiley faces are anachronisms, okay yeah sure, but still, it’s funny!
Of course, people have been drawing pentagrams (stylized stars) ever since there’s been things to draw them with
pfft, everybody knows Shakespeare isn’t the same without an anachronism or two! It’s practically canon!
Actually, it IS canon. He’d add all sort of convenient stuff (a clock striking twelve in Julius Caesar? Why not!) or references to (his) modern times to keep the audience interested.
So yeah, Rick is following the Bard’s rule at heart, in my opinion
That last panel takes the cake.
And it’s a grape cake, naturally!
I’ve never had grape cake before, may I try some?
That actually sounds awesome!
Grape naturally goes for the most violent solution.
Violence tends to solve ALL of my problems…
Duct tape solves all of my problems.
Duct tape, followed by violence, solves my problems.
Oh, yeah! How could I forget the solution to ALL home repairs?
It’s the handyman’s secret weapon.
Wait, why use duct tape to tie up King Duncan?
“”Any problem can be solved with the correct application of pressure to a stupid person’s face.”
She’s used to solving things that way.
People who say violence never solved anything, don’t understand violence, or why it gets used so often.
Which is exactly why, when I fantasize the Housepets singing my music, it’s either her or Bino on the drums.
… I mean that’s where everbody else sees her, right?
I can’t be the only one.
..right?
Grape on drums, Peanut on lead guitar and vocal, Zach on bass, Keys on keyboard (obviously), and Rex on tambourine.
I just never heard a voice (or other instrument) that’s right for Grape, only Sheryl Crowe if she really girled it up, if you know what I mean.
So far, Peanut only gets lead vocals during The Postal Service (Ben Gibbard) and maybe Hoobastank, but otherwise he’s on wind: harmonica, trumpet… saxophone… think about it ^^
I have to admit, King usually gets bass (and some AAR vocals), but I can see Zach there. In fact, I can see Zach just about anywhere because picturing him playing anything is absolutely ADORABLE.
Keys is on keys all the time every time, but to me, he’s also Daniel Powter-as-a-cat.
And I seem to reserve the tamborine for Sasha (she can probably work a crowd), whereas Rex gets some of ICP’s vocals. Although I can’t imagine why Rex wou-
…oh i see what you did there
Macbeth is probably the first “whipped” man in history. While Lady Macbeth is probably the first independent women in history. Well fictional history.
I dunno how well this joke will be received, but… ADAM AND EVE.
I saw what you did there. +1
grape always wears the pants in the relationship
Collar?
+1
WE HAVE TO KILL HIM!!! brings back good memory’s from high school
If Grape were a queen, there would be no more wars. She would convince all others to assimilate.
“Hey hon, there’s a delegation from the territory we’ve recently conquered. What do we do?”
” KILL THEM! How are we supposed to rule an empire if the rightful heirs are still around?”
… yeah, that’d be pretty much how it’d go.
this is how she would treat him if they DID get married
lol Grapes in complete control here
see the female always rules the relationship no matter what time frame it is XD
indeed, that’s how it always happens every where ._.
Well, every where in the western world
“Disguising yourself as birnam wood doesn’t seem to smart when we’re dogs”.
okay, looking forward to that part now
you’ve made me curious
“Lady Macbeth persuades her husband to kill the king by attacking his manhood.”
–From ‘Student Bloopers’, I think. Can’t quite remember.
The funny part is that Grape DOES have a good point in the third panel. XD
i love this when is the second book coming out?!
also i still cant get an avatar on my comment thingy someone help me?
Did you register your e-mail, and your avatar, with gravatar? Did you associate the two? (I know you’ve done plenty of waiting, so I’m not going to ask that)
i registered but i dont know my email for this place
that’s is a realy good question but i think we must waiting a time but the hope die at last^^
(yes i know my english is bad^^)
I think you’re looking for “wait until he finally dies” or “wait and hope he dies”
So are all their parents watching?
Mrs sandwich: Grape, where are you going with that frying pan?
Grape: I need it to kill peanut.
Mrs. Sandwich: Okay, carry on then. Just be sure to clean off the blood afterwards!
And the dub shall say: “Just be sure not to put it away backwards!”
…
Okay- seriously! When every other handle in the stack is facing out and is arranged largest to smallest (with the largest on the bottom duuhh) THERE IS NO EXCUSE.
FOR SERIOUS GRAPE.
Of corse Grape, Duncan can’t die if you don’t kill him.
Looks like the Alt-Text is confused between Macbeth and Hamlet as well. Glad I’m not alone.
Sorry, but my iPad doesn’t show alt-text. Could somebody tell me what it is?
Hie thee hither, That I may pour my spirits in thine ear . . . wait, are we sure this is the right play?
Thank you, kind sir.
This is what we need to do when our in-laws come over for dinner! XD
What? No way! I like my in laws! My sisters couldn’t have picked better people to marry!
you are one of the lucky few then
He’s just staying in the law
Oh come on, if there are FEW good in laws, then that means that you yourself is a bad in law since so many people say they have bad ones
Me: They all think that I’m crazy because I like my in laws, but they’re the crazy ones! *insane laugh* I’m the only sane one left! *whacked between the ears with a frying pan by Grape* Thank you, I needed that.
Grape: Can I hit you again?
Me: Uuuuuummmmm……. no.
And on your left, we have Grip with two concussions!
TWO concussions? But I only got hit one ti- *gets hit with frying pan* Hey cut that out *bares his sharp canines*
Cats have sharper canines than canines.
Grape as Lady McB, suits her well.
Pretend Marriage! <3
I usualy don’t like violence… =(
… but I want to see some FRYING-PAN ACTION!!! =D
YEAH!!! =D
Just like old times! XD
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2008/09/19/grape-solves-another-problem-with-violence/
Ah, the joys of the Frying-Pan.
Let’s hope that not going to the end we the last roleplaye i mean the prideland story^^
I am utterly confused now/
… by what, exactly? I think it’s pretty straightforward- Mrs. MacBeth strong-arms her husband into killing the king and his entourage so that he can become king himself. Nothing much to explain there.
Sometimes you have to take fate into your own hands!
And of course I don’t mean take one of the fates into your hands.
Well, discluding the one played by Grape. She’s your pretend wife now. So semi-pretend to take her into your hands because killing kings (even for pretend!) is nasty business.
Now pretend you understand.
Hmm, I never really imagined Max was the kind of person who’d love Imaginate, especially not such… Serious roles.
sooooo do we have anymore gold stars left
I haves gold stars, lots of stars *passes out stars to everyone* STICKERS YAY
Stickers?! Yay! I want one! Wait… will these make my fur all sticky?
I’ll just stick around here for a while…
Did someone say they have stickers?!
STICKEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSS!!!!! *eagerly grab some and sticks them all to my face*
Yehoshua is a good boy :3
Oh no! The comic was just here and now it’s showing the last one again!
give it a few minutes…
WOW!!!
This is so cool!
Awww so snuggely :3
