The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for June 25, 2020

The wonders of modern technology.

But kids are the only ones who can open it!

Just tell them it’s a place to play online games with a great sound system and wi-fi.

Double, double toil and trouble

Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Some little kids are in hot water:

They shouldna done what they hadn’t oughter!

(Sorry Bill, you definitely da Bard!)

So bad!

And you burp the cap to keep the kids fresh!

facepalm

Kids have NO problem opening a kids proof cap! Is it soup yet?

Glass ceiling.

Safety first!

…betcha can’t eat just one…

I thought it was the largest Ritz cracker at first.

Punish kids like that and they’ll stew about it all day long.

But kids are so full of sugar.

My meds all come with an adult-proof cap.

Witches Be Loco!

Only children can open “childproof” caps, so I don’t think that is going to work!

In the next panel, she shows her friend the new, easy-to-prepare meal she got at the store: “Child Helper.”

Side effect is that it caps her limit on the number of kids she can have.
