Re: 2021/04/26 - Cutting Remark

Is the wooden-handled one at the bottom-right a toilet plunger? :)

Re: 2019/11/04 - Repetition

If you're using that image to try to defend calling Lois a lynx earlier, I'm sorry to say the title is flat out wrong. It's a common misconception, but bobcats are sufficiently different from the three lynxes to be considered a lynx itself. It's close, mind you, but not close enough. Saying a bobca...

Re: They Changed It And Now It Sucks - The Site Died Edition

The site's mostly working for me, except the background image isn't loading. It's trying to load it from https://test.housepetscomic.com/wp-cont ... s-lg-2.png , but test.housepetscomic.com isn't responding.

Re: 2019/02/27 - Love Across Space And Time

So does anyone know what the title text is referencing? The only thing I can think of is the semi-famous edit of a panel from the Twokinds webcomic. Pretty sure it's referencing the first time the gang met Sabercat: http://www.housepetscomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2015-09-04-select-the-tour...

Re: 2018/05/28 - Alternative Methods

Hmm, "draig" is Welsh for "dragon"…

And "craig" is Welsh for "cliff". Or it could just be a normal English name :)

Re: 2017/12/25 - 12 Days of Housepets

Hehe, it's great! Cute and funny :) A not-chocolate soak sounds pretty nice, actually. The OSX download version doesn't work for me though (on macOS version 10.13.2). When I run "Game", it opens an all-black window. Under the Window menu, there's a Devtools, and if I open that and view the...

Re: 2017/11/06 - Secret Collect

Hi there! Decided to use the Arabic handwriting tool to see if I could get a close enough translation, and this is what I have. Red indicates my guess as to what it actually says. مل فملا تملم اللفة المربیة، اًو هل تم التجمین هذا طوال الوقت؟ Have you ever completed a lap, or was it filled all the t...

Re: 2017/11/03 - Absolutely Nothing

Yay, the Arabic text is all connected together this time :)

I think it says:
أليس هذا الذهب، هناك حق؟
which Google translates as "Is not this gold, right there?" (perhaps "Isn't that gold, right there?")

and:
قلت لك ذلك
which Google translates as "I told you so"

Re: 2017/09/29 – Lead To Gold

Rick's Arabic font seems all broken apart. Here's from Google Translate (let's see if the forums can handle right-to-left mid post :twisted: ): ولكن لماذا لا احصل على قبعة؟ Translation: But why not get a hat? Edit: Success! I think you're missing a squiggle on one of the letters :) ولكن لماذا لا أح...

Is Keene's mom reading up on snails in the first panel? Perhaps how to best use them in pies?

Re: Languages

You can always learn about them, especially since you already have the basics and probably the tones right. Chinese languages and Thai are notorious for their complex tones, and I never really got even the Mandarin ones down pat when I studied it briefly last time. And Thai have six @_@ Yeah, I cou...

Re: Languages

English (native), Thai (native, but probably 9th grade vocabulary), Mandarin Chinese (native, but probably 3rd grade vocabulary... or worse), French (basic), Japanese (very basic). My parents are Thai and Chinese, and I grew up speaking those languages (hence native speaker) and don't speak with a f...
