Brevity by Dan Thompson for March 05, 2014

Kinda wish I knew what hey this is all about….

Apparently…. Thank you, oh Great Google…. there’s a wildly popular(though unknown to an old fogy comics reader like me) game, for Facebook and smartphones, called “Candy Crush Saga.”

Game progress is made by matching things….

So…. my guess is that this version substitutes condors for candy…and this poor loser can’t make a match.

That’s for the birds.

Dogsniff, I’m like and and won’t spend a dime on Candy Crush. . . I’m stuck on level 165 and feel it’s impossible to get past . . . but I will not spend any money on it!

Weren’t condors close to extinction a few years ago? Maybe this has to do with that?

I think I’ll give El Condor a pasa.

There’s room here for a “Condorleeza Rice” pun, but I’m not touching it with a ten foot bird!

So this is how condors carrion in the evenings?

I’m only on level 75 of Candy Crush – haven’t been playing long. They did studies to find out what makes these games addictive. We are all being manipulated. I, too, refuse to pay a billion dollar company to go from one impossible level to the next impossible level. This is the only place I hate chocolate!

Digital Frog, yes. And when they get on a plane they put their carrion luggage in the overhead storage area….
