Peeve arc

This is a story arc about Thaddeus Euphemism creating animals known as "peeves" to keep as pets, a pun on the phrase "pet peeve".

Plot
It begins with Bob complaining that his lunch has been stolen. Thaddeus asks if that's his "pet peeve" but Bob doesn't know what a pet peeve is. Thaddeus explains that a pet peeve is something that annoys you in particular, so you own it like a pet. However, Bob points out that everybody hates having their lunch stolen, so that would be a wild peeve.

In the next strip, Thaddeus shows Bob a creature he's created called a "peeve", the idea being that they can be kept as pets. However, it swallows Thaddeus's coffee cup.

In the following strip, another scientist named Jenkins is admiring the pet, but then it eats him.

The next strip has Thaddeus about to show two children from an orphanage the peeve, only to find that there are now four of them and they've eaten all the equipment.

In the next strip, the children run away while Bob calls 911. The 911 operators have created a special line for people who've bio-engineered lifeforms that are terrorising buildings solely because of Thaddeus and Bob's shenanigans.

The fire department arrive in the next strip and Thaddeus explains that the peeves eat everything and reproduce asexually, but the firefighters think he's saying, "Aayyyyyy, sexually."

In the next strip, the peeves nearly eat one of the firefighters, but spit him out because his boots are sweaty and therefore taste bad.

The strip after that has one of the firefighters suggesting Thaddeus train the peeves since they're supposed to be pets, so he tries with a spray bottle.

In the next strip, Thaddeus has gotten some new lab equipment and the peeves have been sold to the dump, where they eat the rubbish.
