Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 05, 2020

Once again, a little under 10 years ago, a blog entry preceded this strip:

if you’re going to read comics online, Petey, better pray Alice doesn’t get crumbs and jelly smears on the keyboard

It’s a good thing I can read these online since my local papers don’t run this one.

Heaven forfend.

A backhanded plug for GoComics! Nice Job, Petey!

It’s better to read them online, Petey. Here is where to tell the cartoonist he’s funny … or not!

Ugh, who reads comics online, right guys?

1. Weekday comics are in B&W in the paper and color online. 2. It’s easier to clip and email comics online. 3. Sometimes the comments online are funnier than the comics.

The unanswered question-what kind of sandwich?

’S all right, jelly on touch screen is the modern equivalent of jelly on newsprint

I love this comic, and many others only available online, but nothing starts my day like reading the comics with my bowl of cereal and glass of juice (like I have for the past 60+ years).

The horror.

“The comments are funnier than the comics?” B.S.!

My late father-in-law had a position for a while selling systems to newspapers that made the ink less smeary. How well did he do? Well, I think he was already dead when this first appeared. Further, deponent sayeth not.

Sociopathy crossed with ADD is not pretty.

Peter you uttered that last line with a look of disdain on your face…are we not purists here?

Each in their own little world. There is some effective overlap.

Alice is at that dangerously pesky stage.

Alas, Petey, nothing can be done . Little sisters get carte [blanche] jelly to annoy their hyper-picky OCD-ish big brothers.

Try reading comics online. You’ll like it!

It got too popular; so no one does it.

ironic, considering we read them online
