Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 23, 2021

Might collect more money without the Wiley dog baring all those sharp teeth and scaring people off.

Every real estate marketer will tell you what the three rules of real estate are. And Lester’s got a pretty firm grip on that very spot there…

He’s done the place down nicely.

It looks like either a scary dog or a beaver. Either way, I might not want it in my neighborhood.

Donate a Molotov

Place looks just like how dad likes it. Anti social introvert. He likes weeds because they stay green when it gets hot and dry and the lawn goes dormant.

Lester could extend the ambiance by nailing beer bottle caps into the door frame, putting a pickup with no wheels on blocks, and a trailer with flat tires

The most eligible bachelor in the county.

That yard looks tired. (Tyred for you folks from across the pond)

That is actually not a bad idea actually. It allows everyone to get what they want.

But he keeps the taxes down.

I’d say let him be, don’t feed trolls in any capacity!

Only problem – if the Stockholm syndrome sets in.

Oh, goodness is not that the truth until….the tornado struck just my place and I’m the one spoiling the hood. LOL. Insurance is slow to help…….

Don’t recall seeing the Wiley Dog for quite some time.

Better idea: let a gay afro-american military couple move in next door …

I’ve had a few neighbors in the past who I’d have gladly contributed to…

Junk. Yard. Dog.

Told my neighbors I was moving to a better neighborhood. They said that after I moved this would be a better neighborhood…

I like the “bye” on the top of the thermometer.

I see a lot of “For Sale by Owner” signs. I’ve yet to see a “For Sale by Neighbor” sign.

Actually, the neighbors are worse; Lester’s simply not sufficiently déclassé for them. So they want to be shed of his uppity influence.

I saw something similar in a Montana trailer park. There was tragic fire one night. So sad.

Is Wiley commenting on Mike Lester?

I’m going to have to stop reading the comments. I used to enjoy reading what all had to share but for too long it turns nasty and creates conflicts. I liked the cartoon, the comments – not so much.

what a great idea!

Whatever works.

Reminds me of the drunk who was so obnoxious that the rest of the bar patrons took up a collection to pay his bar tab so that the owner could ban the guy for life! True story!!

My lawn is the kind where when new people move onto our street and ask about lawn care, my neighbors point to mine and say, "Don’t do that!

Funny! The joke works ONLY if Lester is Caucasian. Any other skin tone and this cartoon would be so RACIST that Wiley would be banned from all media for life.

Bought a small run-down house in a nice neighborhood. The price was right. Neighbor came over to congratulate me when I had the metal roof redone in all one color. Also redid the plywood shower and fixed a few other problems. Sold the house decades ago and broke even. A few weeks ago saw it was under contract for almost half a million.

The Bumpuses?

I like the tire swings!

Hey Lester! Let me know if that works.

He’s about halfway there and he just sat down with his newspaper.

I reckon Lester’s well on the way – money or no money.

That is a swell idea!

And the poor dog with the Tyrannosaurs teeth.

Saw a real estate listing today where I looked at the Street View to get a feel for the neighborhood. Right next door was a driveway with a gate across it and a sign: No trespassers. I have a gun and a backhoe. And thought, okay, now I know why the guy next door is selling.

Haven’t seen the toothy dog in awhile. Isn’t his name Rolf?
