Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 02, 2020

can’t beat the offer of the picky eaters’ menu

That is quite the niche market for a summer camp. Almost made-to-order for Petey.

One might almost think that a divine hand had orchestrated the whole thing….

There’s a camp for everyone. Except for me. Never went to camp — didn’t have the money.

You know there WILL be some kind of excrement in the puch bowl, don’t you?

He’s coming around! Look at the excitement! And just think, Little Neuro on a lanyard!

Where was this camp when I was a kid?

You’re making this up, mom. You know your kid. Once he’s there, of course, he’ll fall into the depths of despair knowing you lied to him. Thus parenting.

If it sounds too good to be true….

I remember going to camp a couple of times, but only for about a week, not the whole summer…

Camp Picky-yune.

And their plates have compartments to prevent different items from touching.

Bulletin: Camp Toonaway has been closed until July because of coronavirus fears. Neurotic, introverted kids don’t need the stress.

Can you imagine 20-40 Peteys in a camp? Poor counselors.

Comic books all day? Where was this place when I was a kid???

I think Petey has found his dream camp.

Madeline is trying to upsell Petey. I’d like to read that brochure for myself and see what it really says!

I’ll bet it’s for real!
