Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 31, 2008
Transcript:
Mom: How about this bookbag, Petey? Petey: I like my old one. Mom: Your old is falling apart. This bag is made of ultra-light waterproof 1,000 denier polyester. It was tested in the Himalayas! Petey: I don't like it. Mom: It says they successfully hauled the complete works of Charles Dickens up Mount Everest in one of these bags! And it's got a built-in parachute! Petey: I don't - wait - what? Mom: This ring opens the chute. Petey: This? Mom: BANG! Petey: GAH! Mom. Mom: This bag is fine. Petey: Mom is a dangerous lunatic. Alice: No she's not. She's getting me this lunchbox that makes its own cheese sandwiches by magic!

You can get a magic lunch box that will make as many as you want! Just ask Alice’s Mom for the location of the store. ;-)

Now that’s the type of thing I would pull on my kids! Same kind of reactions, too!

In the fifth panel, Petey reminds me of a young Charles Montgomery Burns (that’s Mr. Burns to you).
