Hmmmmmmm? I hadn't thought of that lizapest. Interesting. At first one would think "no way Pastis would venture there for fear of reprisal" but if he couched it esoterically or by Pig's unique ability to confuse the words, he jussssssssssssst might pull it off. I tell you, this Pastis fellow is sneaky. But we are really his laboratory rats. He is the personification of Rat and he puts us in his box o'stupid people and then watches us to his own delight. Oh well, move over fellas, make room for the caddy.
I think Pastis is attempting to lead us somewhere - 1st pied piper, then seances and now humpty invading our subconsciousness - oh where oh where is this pied piper leading us? Beware of the dark side...what is it? Is Pastis saying, "Luke, come to the dark side"....."I am your father"? Guard Duck, come save me and bring your shoulder mounted anti-tank missiles!! Quickly!!!
You don't monkey around with Pig, oh no! As to the theology of monkey underwear, it's simple, sisyphos: Pig believes that wearing monkey underwear protects him from going to h.e.l.l. That's it, no other qualification. Wear monkey underwear and rob a bank (not that Pig would) and it doesn't disqualify you from going to heaven or damage your karma or whatever.
