Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for November 27, 2013

Horace left to go put on his shades…

Ironic, no?

I can see optimism wrapped in pessimism here…when each meeting of the Pessimist Society is called to order, the President (or maybe the “Low Pubah,” the leader being the most pessimistic member?) could say, “We’ve all survived since the last meeting and we all made it here today, so we have something to be optimistic about.”

Not a member I can tell… At least I’d never let him in with an attitude like that! His society is doomed to failure! DOOMED I tell you!

Looks like SINE “floored him” with his observation…….. ! ! !

The meetings are always half-empty.

Yes, that would be a, well…pessimistic way to look at it. Even after years of uneventful meetings, the leader could say, “the odds will catch up with us, as it’s inevitable.”

Wait…

Hmmm…Horace is a member of the National Society for Absent-mindedness, Top Secret Club (until he was thrown out), and now the Pessimist Society, which makes me wonder: What club(s), if any, do/does Melody belong to? A photography club is one possibility, as her activity in that field may hint at.

I’ve heard when someone is pessimistic, things actually get done. One way to look at it.

Horace’s brain seems to be half empty today.

This comic proves that the phrase ‘birdbrain’ is wrong. Should it be changed to ‘equinemind’?
