The person sitting in the chair looks like a version of Clyde from “Candorville.” However, it’s hard to visualize him as actually working. You can see hm in yesterday’s “Candorville.”
[furry-faced grin] Wonderful comic Robb!!! Very real!++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++My take on the “ish” aspect is that the trees have been cut are available so damn early that they have probably been imbued with all sorts of chemicals to help “assist” them in retaining their leaves (needles). I would tend to think that any tree that is all natural, and cut before December 1st would be horrific in turns of going brown and shedding. This is especially true with trees (like those in the comic) that are not in water.

If they are cheap enough they might make good wind breaks as the salesperson sitting in the chair is demonstrating.

It means they bear some resemblance to the real thing, without the fire hazard.
