Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for April 25, 2019

I thought that’s where they store their nuts and acorns?

Nuts have a lot of essential oils. I know when I eat nuts my system works like a well oiled machine. I’m sure te same works for squirrels. The expression " S**t through a goose " comes to mind

Well he has one point, but sure would hate to see a squirrel pooping like a hippo!!!

3 tips to success…Location, location, location!

Ugh I’ve seen videos of defecating hippos and it’s not a pretty sight! They twirl they’re tails like propellers spraying everything in the vicinity with *s**t!*

I sense some tension building!

So this is why Jeffrey thinks squirrels don’t poop. To observe them, he picked a spot that keeps them from getting to the pooping place, so they’ve been holding it in.

(Dung shui, the Chinese art of getting your “poop” together.)

I’m sure if Jeffrey knew that was the restroom, he would of used it a couple of days ago and solved the problem.

Please don’t turn this into an Abbott and Costello-type routine!

Ahhh. So squirrels poop inside the tree. I wondered what the holes were for when they had perfectly good stick nests in the branches.

Total and complete misunderstandings, especially on absurd topics, never get old for me. This one’s a classic!

Next week: Jeffrey attempts to prove his theory about what Wileybears do in the woods.

Why don’t you ever see Hippos hiding in trees?????’Cause their good at it!!!!!!!

Panel #3 “MALFUNCTION MALFUNCTION MALFUNCTION”

Maybe this is a set up where Jeffrey tagged Danae. He only said he’d been up there 3 day+. There was no proof.

I thought that was the Keebler elf kitchen door. Beware the chocolate chips.

Imagine how the squirrel stuck inside feels.

Wiley squirrels! Wiley squirrels! Oh yeah!

Luv Lucy’s confused look….

Would this situation make Jeffrey a hippo-crite?

‘The Pooping Squirrels’ would be a horrible name for a band.

Panel four, the door appears like magic.

Danae isn’t completely positive that Jeffrey DOESN’T have a hippo (“no, I don’t think so”) and is doing “the usual” in sitting on a tree branch trying to disprove his hypothesis. NOW we know where Cap’n Eddie gets it!

I like the squirrel, impatiently posed, with its hand on its hips. Classic!

Danae! That’s what fertilizes the trees!

What about the poor squirrel that’s been trapped INSIDE that tree bathroom all this time?

This have been enjoying this series.

Basic principle of the scientific method: For any given hypothesis, you should look for evidence that refutes it, not evidence that supports it. Presumably supporting evidence was what gave rise to the hypothesis in the first place.

So that’s what that noise is, little toilets flushing.

Saw it coming! Saw it coming!

hypothesis: [hi-PO-the-sis], not [HIP-po-thésis]. The joke fails. :-(

Mystery solved!

Prey Animals like Privacy when Pooping because you cannot Poop and run from Tigers at the same time.

You can get a slight “Jet Boost” when you first See the Tiger about to Pounce, though.
