Tongue Out, Brain Off

During his daily mid-afternoon grooming session, Chester suddenly remembers that he really, really likes chicken. This one thought so overwhelms him that he remains in this state for half an hour.

Tongue on the Run!

Not That Mike The Other Mike4 Comments

Today is Tongue-out Tuesday, which is an opportune moment to acknowledge a truth we often suppress: Sometimes a tongue just wants to escape for a while. It’s nothing personal, but it can get frustrating being cooped up in the same head, tasting the same food, and never experiencing the wider world. So if your tongue makes a break for it, don’t panic. It’ll be back.
