“YOU’RE not nuts.”

(I saw something strange yesterday on another comics website that shall remain nameless. A cartoonist had a typo, and, since it is my role in life, I commented on it. But later in the day an updated version was posted with the typo corrected! Will wonders never cease?!)

With delusions of grandeur.

You’re not nuts, but you are a nut.

I want to report this psychologist. I believe Me. Peanut’s death was a suicide and the Dr should have cracked Mr. Peanut’s inner pain years ago.

How can the contraction for ‘you are’ be used correctly in one sentence and not the other?

That’s Mr. Legume to you.

Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t.

Where’re his monocle and cane?

…a lot of people worship George Washington Carver.

But Doc, can you explain this compulsion to dress up like a fruit?
