Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 02, 2009

Whoa……

Now pop his zits.

That’s cranial smoke, that is. Burning humiliation. It’s carcinogenic.

I think Petey’s brain just popped.

She just blew his mind…. and for a second there, mine too. –

Time for a new diorama, Petey

Petey might just decide to change course based on that remark–he’s been stuck in the ultra-picky mode for a LONG time.

huh wait what ???? is petey the imaginary one in this strip ? i thought it was supposed to be ernesto

I’d like it better if Ernesto actually existed.

I think R.T. might be basing some of this on his own childhood. Poor Richard, did one of your friends convince you that you were imaginary? How surreal.

For those of you who, like me, wondered….

eviscerate

-disembowel somebody: to remove the internal organs or entrails of a person or an animal -remove important part of something: to remove an essential part of something and so weaken it

I see numerous years of counseling ahead for our friend Petey Potterpoop.

HAH! I knew it!

If this strip turns out like “St. Elsewhere” did in the end, I’m gonna clobber you Mr. Thompson ; )

The thrill just went out of this relationship … poor Petey Otterloop, left heartbroken at nine.

Now what are you up to Richard?

I’d point out that Viola might have been more accurate to use the word Exsanguinate, but I’m too busy being flipped out. Of course, Petey really is imaginary, but characters in a story don’t often talk about it.

Hmmm ….. perhaps the entire comic of Cul de Sac is imaginary?? Oh, that would be like so sad….

You don’t exsanguinate vampires, vampires exsanguinate YOU.

“You popped my backpack!” THERE’S a line you don’t hear every day.
