Strip by: that guy

Liz: Jon?
Jon: Yes?
Liz: Your simian countenance suggests a heritage unusually rich in species diversity.
Jon: I will never understand women
Garfield: I think she just called you a monkey

The author writes:

I never found the idea of Linguistics with Liz amusing, considering that it's (mostly) just Liz actually saying "You are a radish" in various languages... Obviously it's much better to have Liz spewing big words that Jon is too dumb to understand. Liz's line is taken from a Calvin and Hobbes strip.

Original Calvin and Hobbes strip: 1994-01-29.
