Holy schnikes, I cannot imagine. That would be one weird twist.

I see Bleeb is hiding from Dalcon in incognito chameleon mode. Something bad is about to happen to those poor OLD people on stage.

It was a simple mistake: Someone misspelled “physics” as “physiques.”

That tells me more about the Nobel prize committee than I ever want to know.

That’s cruel to make the old woman the hairest one of all.

And this is why the event is not televised.

Bleeb doesn’t look happy- can’t blame him.

Might be the only competition that the stock answer would be the appropriate one for the expected question.

“What do you want for the world?”

“I hope for World Peace.”

Burt: “Isn’t that great folks? A round of applause please!”

it’s about the same thing……

Zest? Really?

shudders too much zest

You want a peace of this?

The King of Sweden had apoplexy.

Well, I have to admit, that would make things a bit more interesting. …yucky, but interesting.

Since Obama received one for doing nothing and Trump got nothing for doing more for peace in the Middle East than any other President ever, it is now forever known as the Irrelevant Liberal Nobel Peace Prize.

All this for inventing dynamite?

Not politically correct.

Given how ridiculous the Nobel Prize committee has become, this would actually be an improvement.

They all have strangely high arches, and their feet look like they could be comfortable on a bird’s perch.

Oh, and just be thankful that Professor Unk (the guy in yellow and black stripe) was talked down from his usual Speedos.

Dalcon is mad, he didn’t read the fine print, he was over excited that he had front row seats to the swimsuit edition. Curse you Bleeb!

More not-so-subtle stereotyping of women in science. I once dated a beautiful biochemist.

Please don’t…..

now we’ll really see who deserves it

I know it looks like his trademark club, but that’s actually a dollar that Dalcon’s holding… while he waits for the pole dance competition.

Anyone who would attend a Nobel Prize ceremony would probably appreciate such an event. Apparently so since they’re all clapping. Probably just glad it’s not them.

Okay…why is the old lady the only one wrinkly? Believe me, I’ve seen plenty of wrinkly old men out there!

Bleeb was hard to find.
