King didn’t censor himself when he was speaking to Bahamut. It’s likely just a species thing.

King didn't say "Crap" when he exploded in anger though after Bino's stunt which was supposed to humiliate him in front of everybody. The only instances of "Carp" being used have been from cats but I still think it can go either way.

The title of https://www.housepetscomic.com/comic/20 ... -a-survey/ is a reference to an Animaniacs episode, Survey Ladies, and their refrain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bwi96ZRtc_8

Carp isn't a swearword but if you switch the r with the a you get the absolutely awful swearword CARP

Its not a swear word though. Its a word that is impolite to say and you shouldn't use it a lot (and I don't) but there are WORSE words. :|

So, wait a minute! Keene did die, initially, when he found himself in Heaven and met Breel, didn’t he? And then, Cerberus just told him he could go back. So what was all that about? Did he die? If not, why was he in heaven? If he did die, why did he get to go back?

As in "carpe diem", you know ... "Seize the Carp!!" Has something to do with the Roman version of gefilte fish.

I have to admit though when I heard of the fish, it was only because I knew the Pokemon Magikarp. Once I knew there was a real fish called that, I continued to spell it "karp". XD

It's not a reread, per se, but a couple weeks ago at dinner the conversation turned to artsy films (and our distaste of them), and one of the films brought up was The Unbearable Lightness of Being. I'm ashamed to say it took me that long to realize the reference behind the comic chapter of (nearly) the same name.

You dislike artsy films....?

What are your thoughts on people who can either take or leave artsy films then? :P

Kate Gelato first appeared in 2015. She isn't tagged as such, but between the blonde hair and purple jacket, I think she's meant to be the same character.

I have always wondered if Jack got fired for that little faux pas. I doubt that they would let him in the PARK again after that.

Don't you just love it when Rick throws out what seems to be an Easter Egg but then picks up on it again a few years later? :D

I wonder how much of that is actually planned or just convenient little accidents.

If I had to guess I would say it might be a 60/40 ratio between them. Ricky just might see something he made previously and decide to expand on it.
