Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 13, 2014

Maybe Alice killed the squeaking with all that walking?

Nothing screeches like a pre-schooler!

Ultrasonic!

Thank heavens, for little girls, they grow up in a most delightful way…but they still scream!

I was in a department store and walked past a little girl and her Mom looking at clothes. The girl shrieked “That’s so cute!” in a pitch that could have broken glass and made dogs cover their ears.

Can you imagine working at a venue where a popular boy band is performing? The screams will deafen you. We were 2 blocks away and it was louder than the World Series.

Moooommm!!! We have to take these shoes back to the store — they’re BROKEN!!!

Clever Richard, having the voice balloons raise out of the panels!

I’m sorry, I can’t hear what you’re writing. I think something must have affected my hearing….

If you want your ears pierced, just hang around Alice!

What the hell is it with you and lawsuits???

Hey, Keith, you idiot. You lawsuit is against your computer, for not having a zoom function, like a tablet. At least, touch the strip to see if it opens into a new window.

This strip does enlarge. However, GoComics broke the “reply” function on iPads (it used to work).

that’s so true. New shoes do squeak!
