I SAW THE MOST INSPIRING iPHONE VIDEO OF SOMEBODY SAVING A GUY FROM A BURNING CAR.
I SAW THAT TOO. THERE WERE LIKE SIX DIFFERENT ANGLES OF IT.
YEAH, BECAUSE SIX DIFFERENT PEOPLE STOOD THERE FILMING INSTEAD OF HELPING.
SO THAT'S HOW THAT HAPPENS.
GETTING 'LIKES' IS VERY IMPORTANT.

PARDON ME, JEF THE CYCLIST, BUT I'M TRYING TO DRIVE MY CAR AND YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET.

IT'S A STREET WHERE CYCLISTS ARE GIVEN PRIORITY OVER CARS.
BUT YOU'RE HAVING A PICNIC.
AND THEN THEY MADE ME CUT UP THEIR APPLES.

RAT THE AIRLINE GATE AGENT
FOLKS, I'M AFRAID TODAYS FLIGHT IS OVERSOLD.
THE GOOD NEWS, THOUGH, IS THAT WE'RE FLYING TO TOKYO, WHERE THEY SOMETIMES USE LONG STICKS TO CRAM HUMANS INTO SUBWAY CARS.
AND, WELL, I'M SURE YOU SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING.
LET'S NOT TELL THE FAA ABOUT THIS.
OOF
OH, GOD.
SEE, YOU ALL FIT NOW.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? I WAS TRYING TO REACH YOU ALL DAY.
SORRY. MY PHONE DIED.
BOOHOOHOO
HIS POOR FAMILY.

RAT THE AIRLINE GATE AGENT
FOLKS. I'M GETTING A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT BAGGAGE POLICY, IN-FLIGHT MEALS, AND WIFI. SO I'M GONNA TRY TO ANSWER EVERYBODY'S QUESTIONS AT ONCE.
IN EACH OF THESE SITUATIONS, THERE IS ONE OPTION THAT MAKES YOUR FLIGHT MORE PLEASANT.
WE WILL NEVER CHOOSE THAT OPTION.
IT'S NICE TO GIVE THE CATTLE SOME CLARITY.

WHAT ARE YOU MAKING, PIG?
I'M DESIGNING MY OWN LABELS FOR THIS SODA POP. THIS ONE'S CALLED 'ASTRO POP' BECAUSE IT HAS THE MOON AND THE STARS AND THE PLANETS.
IT WOULD PROBABLY BE A LITTLE MORE EYE-CATCHING IF ALL THE OBJECTS WERE A BIT MORE SHINY.
OH. OKAY.
AND WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
I'M JUST MAKING THE MOON SHINE.
HE MUST REALLY HATE SODA POP.

HEY, CIVIL GUARD DUCK. SHOULDN'T YOU BE AT A MILITARY BASE?
I GOT BORED SO I FLED. NOW I'M ABSENT WITHOUT LEAVE.
YOU'RE AWOL?
YEP. BUT I'M HANDY, SO I THOUGHT I'D BUILD A NICE BUNKER THAT THE ARMY CAN LATER USE. THAT WAY, IF THEY CATCH ME, THEY MIGHT GO EASY ON ME.
BUT HOW ARE YOU GONNA GET THE MONEY FOR THAT?
MY FRIEND MACK HERE IS GONNA HELP.
WELL NOT ME, EXACTLY. BUT MY SICKO FRIEND. HE'S GOT A LOT OF CASH.
I GUESS AWOL AND MACK'S SICKO IS GONNA PAY FOR IT.
WHAT'S GUARD DUCK DOING?
I CAN'T GET OUT.
I KNOW.

AND HERE'S A PICTURE OF MY CAT. AND HERE'S ANOTHER. AND LOOK HOW CUTE SHE IS IN THIS ONE. DO YOU HAVE ANY ANIMALS?
YEAH. JUST A PEEVE.
A PEEVE?
A PET PEEVE. ABOUT PEOPLE SHOWING ME ALL THEIR CAT PHOTOS.
CAT LOVERS CAN BE VERY SENSITIVE.

ELFIE SHELFIE SELFIE.
PLEASE FIND OTHER EMPLOYMENT.

FOLKS, WE HAVE AN OVERSOLD FLIGHT TODAY, SO WE'RE GONNA START ASKING FOR VOLUNTEERS WILLING TO GIVE UP THEIR SEATS.
AS WE HAVE NO VOLUNTEERS, I WILL NOW RESORT TO A TECHNIQUE I CALL THE 'UNFRIENDLY SKIES.'
HE ENJOYS THIS JOB TOO MUCH.
FEEL LIKE VOLUNTEERING NOW?

LOOK HOW MUCH THESE GUYS LOOK LIKE EACH OTHER. IT’S UNCANNY.
I’M SORRY, PIG. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT WORD MEANS?
HA HA. OF COURSE.
USE IT IN A SENTENCE.
I PREFER BEER IN BOTTLES BECAUSE IT TASTES UNCANNY.
UH. NO.
YOU PREFER BEER IN CANS?
