Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 14, 2010
Transcript:
Danae: Hey, Lucy... can you hang out with Ekert alone for a while? Lucy: Sure... but why alone? Danae: He needs to get small enough to hide until we find the anti-Ekert. Lucy: Oh... I get it. Keep him away from people, right? Danae: Yes... Lucy: To stop him from gorging on a buffet of ego, malice and greed, right? Danae: Yes... Lucy: Hmm... so you're saying the only species in the world capable of providing such a feast for him is... Danae: He likes to pig-out on gloating, too, so can it, fuzzbutt.

Some hostility issues there, Danae? Well, Lucy and the Ekert should get along….

Maybe I’m weird, but I really wish there was such thing as an Ekert.

Don’t let him get your gloat.

ejcapulet ——– There is such a thing as an Ekert. It’s called Marijuana and for some strange reason, it is totally illegal in most parts of the world. I have never known anyone smoke 3 or 4 joints and want to start a fight, yet when you give the same person a skinful of beer, they think they can beat Mike Tyson. Alcohol is legal in most parts of the world. Go Figure.

Gotta love the Eckert! Can’t wait for the collection of Eckert strips to be printed in one volume. Great image for preaching too.

Especially as “Crazy Season” gets into full swing, I really really wish we had an Ekert zooming around.

At least Lucy can be trusted with Ekert.

It’s a good thing Danae is leaving.
Potrzebie about 14 years ago
come on. Surely highly paid scientists on grants have proven that other species are capable of such behaviors?

Anyone who’s been around horses knows they exhibit ego and greed. They’re very proud animals, like to show off, and don’t like to share their treats with other horses! And I suspect some bite just for the fun of it, which would be malice…

I think we all agree it would be great if Ekerts existed. In reality, we all just need to live the best we can without them.

Lucy is the “anti-Ekert”.
