Morbid Obesity and Shaq Carpeting

Baldo

Tia Carmen is old—a few nips from the bottle won't hurt her much probably.  Cruz, on the other hand, is developing terrible habits that could lead to severe health problems down the road.  Look at his heavy-lidded stare in panels one and two:  just a teenager and already his obesity has made him listless and lethargic!

The Born Looser

"And on a totally unrelated note: if the neighbor calls, I may have set some these eggs free on his house."

Bound and Gagged

What's the joke here? I guess it's funny because vampires sleep every day in a confined space, thus making the doctor's question rather silly.  I was going to suggest that a doctor performing a blood test while also asking the vampire if he's squeamish at the sight of blood might be a more obvious execution of this gag, but then I remembered that vampires don't have their own blood, so never mind.

Brevity

Does anyone actually choose to install shag carpeting these days?  Rather retro-ish, no?  Regardless, having multiple etchings from the Kazaam poster on your floor is surely an improvement.

Lola

What's Lola doing picking up coffee on her way to a coffee shop?  Makes no sense!

The Grizzwells

So did the bear and porcupine find the fish in the garbage or did they catch it somewhere else and just like hanging around a turned over trashcan?  Knowing how lazy these guys are, my bet is that they raided the trash for the fish.  But who throws away whole fish?  By all rights, these two should have starved to death long ago.
