Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for May 20, 2016

Just for those of you too young to have seen it before…or who live on the other side of the planet where it’s unfamiliar…

This is the reason Bucky is insisting Satchel open his gift.Most children of the early 60’s and before will recognise that unbranded,suspicious-looking screw-top can of “peanut brittle,” or sometimes “salted nuts”… and know that cloth-covered springs that are supposed to look like snakes will pop out if you’re silly enough to open it….

(and scare you, if you’re afraid of cloth-covered spring snakes,)

Bucky must be Greek. They’re famous for their gag gifts.

I thought is was cojinetes bearing gifts.

Wash it down with a soda in this dribble cup.

He doesn’t eat Peanut Brittle? That must be the only thing he doesn’t eat!

Bucky will get frustrated and open it for him! LOL

“french exchange student running for chess club treasurer”? C’est quoi ce bordel?

Point the can at Bucky’s face and then open it.

I thought chocolate was a no-no for dogs. I guess peanut butter too at least for Satchel. Good choice boy!

its an trap!

Um wait, Satchel’s not eating something? I don’t think it’s really him. No wonder he was so hard to fool.

Ha—I just love this dialogue. Brilliant!
