Blatantly calling it a request list is kind of stupid on his part

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
It's a new business strategy. Just wondering... ...how did he get TVs (and probably the washing machine/dryer) in the first place? CRTs are pretty heavy, and I don't think he has any trolleys or accomplices.

Wolves seem pretty strong and "Four Finger Discount" Jack has Poncho and probably some other family to call in for assistance.

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
Jack is certainly a shrewd businesswolf. I wonder How he acquired all those TV's? Surely he didn't amass such a horde by himself?

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
Maybe he can only do things like hang Christmas garland and move washing machines when he's off-panel. I guess for all the times he almost didn't get away! *chomp* Lovin' Jack's expressions in panel 2 and 3. Evil woof.

"What is this pile of almost new tools and electrodomestics doing here? And why does it all say property of Ned Flanders on it?" Uuuhm, internet! "Hey! Pay more respect, will ya?"- said Jack, our hero- "That is my mate's father!" "Sorry, nice wolf pelt, though, with full head and all! Oh, it would look rather well if I wore it on my own noggin'"- Said I.

Ah, "Four Finger Discount" Jack; the original 'One-Armed Bandit'...

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
Actually, at least two of the thieves from the aztec treasure arc also had their full faces revealed, but yeah! A human who's full face and body (except for the feet, but no-one cares about feet) are revealed from the start? Maybe Housepets! 3.0 ain't so bad after all.

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
Well, I wasn't sure if it was a slang, noun, adjective, an abreviation, etc. since I have never seen this word before. Depending of the word, it could have many different meanings in a certain sentence and I would like to know what it meant in the context. Kudos for the politeness.

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
It almost always refers to a narcotics officer, but you do occasionally see it used to refer to other "vice squad" types, undercover policemen, etc... that's kind of unusual, though.
NOT THAT A ONE-ARMED HUMANOID WOLF RUNNING A JUNK SHOP IN HIS GARAGE IS UNUSUAL. Ahem.
Now that I think of it, he could be using it to refer to a person who is the habit of "narcing", or reporting suspicious activity among acquaintances to the authorities, rather than an undercover officer.

Who said i forgot, I say, i say WHO? This particular "random person" was rather well put together! In fact I would be so bold to say that this character is probably one of the best drawings of a human by Rick so far in this comic.

 Re: 2013/04/01 - Rube Tube
I believe it's short for "narcotics officer," coming from undercover officers attempting to "buy" drugs so they can arrest the people trying to sell them. EDIT: Yep, Argent beat me to it. But frequently they're partially obscured.
