This isn’t REAL veterinarian stuff; this is “feed the cute little rabbit a carrot to make it feel better.” Therefore, no education required. Or brain cells.
I stand corrected, but we’ve yet to see a RECENT one in “City”. Seriously, do we need so many fire stations and police stations and yet all we get otherwise are ambulances?
Yeah, it has been a while since we’ve seen the actual Hospital building in CITY. We have gotten medical people as recently as CMini Series 6 (the surgeon with the cool X-ray tile) at least. (And, oddly, DUPLO has put out a hospital as recently as last year. LEGO’s marketing people baffle me.)
Lego is quite famous for its bad marketing. I remember when they tryed to sell me a set whith whinnie the pooh being attacked by knives. Mysteries people in trench coats and fedoras are official LEGO marketing people, right?
thats a little agist isn’t it? when I was a four year old girl I was running around with the butcher cutting up pigs and scooping the bad bits of the floor… or was that just a dream?
U kidding me? when I was 4 every time me or my brother’s foot, hand, ect., hurt, my parents told me we would have to cut it off. From then on, whenever someone was like ‘ow my ____ hurts’ I asked if they needed to have it cut off.
My daughter certainly wasn’t squeamish at 4 – she used to watch me play 1st person shootersuntil she said “he’s a baddy dad – shoot him in the head” (I thought it might be getting a bit much and curtailed that activity afterwards), we also used to play knights or pirates where we’d fight with my LARP swords and she’d describe which bits of me she had cut off while rescuing the princess 😀
It’s amazing they can start fires and not be able to stop them? Starting to look like some preempowerment non sense. Go girl! Maybe Whiskey isn’t fearful of any taze whieldin tart. I would be!
Cool thing about that song, I’ve memerized it. May not seem like much to some people, but now I’ve memerized all kinds of songs. lol, I think it’s cool. 🙂
Thing I hate most about that line is that the cars aren’t really minifig scale. Which I guess isn’t the point. (lol, no humans in the Cars franchise, kinda confusing how did they ever evolve?) I know a few people quite like the old 4-wide thing, but really, I prefer 5-8 wide. ( Usually six, but sometimes you can use crazy techniques and explodium to make it functional and beautiful and terribly terribly fragile… ) If those lovely new(ish) pieces had been cast in 6-wide rather than four… I’d have a whole flood of really nice minifigure scale cars… But as it is, I have the parts to make a metric duck-ton of those kiddie rides.
In response to legomiles’ link, that hospital sucks, I mean come on! Hurry! put my son in the E.R.! he’s got a fractured skull! Sorry ma’am, we’re overcrowded already, 2 patients max. lol
hmm, good point, I was just using an example , though. Lol about this comic: I’m 15 almost 16 now, but when i was like 11 I thought this was a kids’ comic, oh boy was I wrong! And that’s why it’s such a good comic. NO bullcrap softie junk… lol. What I like about everyone here, is that you’re all lego fans, and we all prove that legos are not only for little kids, but for anyone who likes stuff like this. Anyway, back on the hospital subject, 2 rooms and beds, Max occupancy: 2 patients, 2 doctors and nurses, and that’s crowded! Any more, and the place will cave in under us. 😛 By the way, Chris, you’ve got a pretty cool comic strip going on here, for quite a few years now, well, it existed before I was 11, so over 5 years, well, you know that, it’s your comic after all. Just sayin’ I’m a fan, keep up the good humor!
Obviously, since girls don’t want to play with hospitals and fire houses, I doubt these kind of disasters even happen in the lego friends world… to their minds at least.
I must admit I’m not a big fan of city things. I like building spaceships and mechanical things these days mostly. I still need to cobble together a million grey bricks so I can make a gigantic USS Enterprise one of these days
But… but… how can a girl be a vet? You have to study all those sciencey-type subjects and possible maths at school and that’s HARD!
Whiskey, just whack her around the head and make a run for it — you won’t get arrested, because girls can’t be policemen either.
LOL! I loled so hard Louise! But technically that would be true in this city! However, she’s still holding the tazer…

Hey, May not be a fireman, But what about a fireWOman? Or PoliceWOman?
Such a sad, pathetic town…
I went to a vet’s once… That was the day they stole my appendix…
You haven’t happened to see a lot of Chester A. Bum lately, by any chance?
Actually there’s no hospital anywhere else in LEGO as far as I know. We need one, with X rays and beds!
what about the lego city set “hospital” 7892?
There have been LEGO hospitals since at least 1976 in fact.
(Set 555)
Even Fabuland had one. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=347-3

You’ll like this set that comes out in time for my birthday…
http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/4429_Hospital
legomiles I could kiss you if not for the fact the one in the picture looks horrifically nothing like a hospital.
well Freinds is too wimpy to have a hospital because 4 year old girls cant take people being cut up and people injecting them
thats a little agist isn’t it? when I was a four year old girl I was running around with the butcher cutting up pigs and scooping the bad bits of the floor… or was that just a dream?

I didnt have many friends after that.

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Actually, they didn’t start the fire. It was always burning since the world’s been turning.
Game over. You win. Your comment just destroyed every comment on this thread.
Cool thing about that song, I’ve memerized it. May not seem like much to some people, but now I’ve memerized all kinds of songs. lol, I think it’s cool. 🙂

I’ve Never Seen So Many Comments On One Comic!
Is that a good thing or not? They can make good reading, although they do eat time. Hmm.
I guess… They just are sort of… there. With a lot to talk about.
(anyway, this comment seems a good excuse to say: Hellooo Octo! It’s 1:36pm here now, but it’s an american site so probably won’t show up as such)
I wonder how bad it would have to get for this webcomic to visit the Cars universe? I think we’re about done with the Friends universe! 😀
don’t get me started on the “cars” line
Thing I hate most about that line is that the cars aren’t really minifig scale. Which I guess isn’t the point. (lol, no humans in the Cars franchise, kinda confusing how did they ever evolve?) I know a few people quite like the old 4-wide thing, but really, I prefer 5-8 wide.

it wouldn’t matter anyway, you’d barely be alive if you had a fractured skull

So the Florist burnt down, but the bakery didn’t?
lol… good point
