He doesn’t seem to think so…

YOU ARE TOO!

Yesterday’s strip proved Ernesto is imaginary. Notice how he disappeared when a Librarian busted Petey for the cheese crackers?

But … Viola can see Ernesto, and Alice can see Viola! So wouldn’t that make Ernesto real? Or maybe Alice and Petey are sharing a series of hallucinations?

Kids live in a different universe from adults. They see things that we cannot.

Folie à Deux.

I learned that by watching “The X-Files.” See, the teevee IS educational.

To paraphrase from the 6th Sense: “I see dumb people, they’re everywhere, they walk around like everyone else, they don’t even know they’re dumb…… and some of them, they work here.”

Dry - that reminds me of a quip I read this week - Whose bright idea was “Take your kids to work day”? Like we’re not already surrounded my immature people who require constant supervision…

I just… I can’t believe how freaking awesome this strip is.

@DigitalFrog, remember that hilarious TV ad about “Yeah, I work with a bunch of monkeys”? (Here: http://www.funnyvideoads.net/tv-commercial/38/Career-Builder-Monkeys-Ad.html)

But the cheese cracker… if Ernesto IS imaginary, where did the cheese cracker come from? Twilight Zone music

it’s pretty bad when petey’s imaginary friend hollers at him [ in panel 3 ]

the X files was on SCI FI , now they call it SY FY… what’s up with that

Did anybody stop to think that maybe PETEY’s the one who doesn’t exist?

Bmonk Yeah, there was a series of them as I recall. Luckily, I’ve generally had good work enviroments.

@ Nate: I second that!!

that was freaky.
