Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 21, 2015

Is Lucy talking about Danae, or someone else we might know?

Laryngitis, in five…four…three…

What’s the equal and opposite reaction to cancel Danae?

I remember a Calvin and Hobbes series of strips in which Hobbes became infatuated with the word, “smock” and couldn’t stop saying it for several days. Drove Calvin bonkers! In this case, you could start a backfire by having someone constantly repeat “rutabaga” to Danae. Maybe that would drive her bonkers!

Thus, the noise cancelling Danae was conceived.

lol, reality is more than some can handle, so they pretend. welcome to America

Much to the chagrin of today’s Republican Party, reality has a strong, liberal bias.

so where’s the button to buy the orange T-shirt with “Bok Choy” printed all over it in green and purple?

So like Michael Mann?

some people think that humans cannot asphyxiate on carbon dioxide. that ingesting lead will not have health effects. that prayer will cure cancer. that the flintstones was a reality show. that bacteria and viruses are the same thing. msg causes migraines. vaccines causes autism. or, that electric fans cause death.

Come on Danae, you can do better. Most anyone knows a little physics; imagination needed.

Everyone should box up and ship a head of bok choy to Wiley.

I don’t know if he’d eat any, but I’m sure his local food bank would take them.

Now that Danae has used Bok Choy, repeatedly, in this strip, watch and listen. You are going to either hear someone on television use the words or see an advertisement for it, somewhere.Never fails !

Lucy is talking about man made Global Warming and Evolution.

-_(God wants it that way.)_

Just curious about something. My understanding of the meaning of your screen name is that you are one who denies any possibility of communication between a G-d and humans. If I understand your name correctly, then, how would you know that a Higher Power doesn’t want a marshmallow to be dented? (Or anything else, for that matter?)

Just curious…

“As regards “exoticdoc”: You can’t dent a marshmallow. (God wants it that way.)”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LOVE IT!

(kinda’ always suspected that God had a thing for marshmallows.)

Cue the Bagpipe Battalion!

Where did the anti Whistler stuff come from? Thought this was gonna be another vegetarian-vegan thing?

I believe the anti-annoying annoyance has to be 180 out of phase with the targeted annoyance or it won’t work.

@ragtime78rpm

“Not to mention the coming ice age…um, I mean, global warming…er, that is, climate change…oh heck, whatever crisis the fear mongers have on tap for this week.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am not a ‘fear-monger,’ —simply because I have no fear. I’d like to think of myself as realist (even though they haven’t decided what ‘realism’ is yet.

But I don’t think the jury is still out onClimate Change. It is a fact, whether you like it or not.

So go ahead — keep living on the coastline of a massive ocean, or in a desert (like California), don’t bother withsunscreen (if you don’t use it, you’ll just get a nice, crispy suntan), and find a substitute for drinkable water, and you’ll be just fine.

@goweeder

Yup, for example stink bugs. I grew up few hundred miles south of here, hardly ever saw them. Now there’s one on my pillow every night.

Goweeder responded to tired-one:

I don’t remember making a comment about stink bugs. If I did, then I did, but I have no idea why.If your had been courteous enough to quote me, so I would have some idea what you’re talking about, I might not be so mystified.

I’m sure there’s a joke about whistler’s mother here somewhere

“The coming Ice Age has been delayed by 100,000 years as the heating progresses at this rate it will be too hot for an Ice Age to happen for an extended time. Sorry.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wow! And you SOUND so smart!

“There are some people who will hold on to their Bibles, guns and falsehoods if it supports their point-of-view and biases.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Truer words were never spoken.

“At least it is a Chinese word not considered “bad” to say.’~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

? If no one knows what you’re talking about, why bother?

“*Shakespeare had things that needed words and he created them!”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I created a word that I think is needed, but it doesn’t seem to have taken off like I thought it would.

“I have noticed that there’s no such word as ‘seriosity,’And it is my opinion that there surely ought to be.

Just look at some examples and I think that you’ll agree:curious — curiosityluminous — luminosityI’m sure there are many that apply. And I am left to wondering whyThere is animosityAgainst a simple word like ‘Seriosity.’

furious — furiosity

Actually, very Few people “Make Stuff Up and call it Religion”.They usually Inherit Religion from a Long Line of Gullible Ancestors.

Newton’s Original Latin translates into English as:“to every action there is always opposed an equal reaction ".

Apparently you’ve never heard about the history of the Church and scientists…

Science-shmiance, get a celebrity endorsement for it and everyone will believe it.

Unintelligent falling

For example, Hilary Clinton.

In terms of political climate, perhaps.The Earth’s climate though, is not so easily stampeded into folly.We do know that we can easily destroy the business climate so that industry and commerce are severely affected, with those corporate entities that remain being sick and corrupted and entirely unwholesome, strangers to daylight.

Sometimes it requires a leap of faith before you can Believe.
