Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 06, 2022

Just wadded up or crunchie ?

All of them!

Is that horse real or her imaginary friend like Hobbs ?

There’s a REASON that cloth hankies have gone away in favor of disposables…

Still, as ideas go, it’s nothing to sneeze at.

I find the same thing in my pockets. Except it’s a hankie. And it doesn’t turn my nose red, either.

Apparently, unlike the Disney Corporation, which guards its trademarks jealously and vigorously, the people who make Kleenex don’t care if you call anybody else’s comparable product a kleenex. I guess they figure it’s free publicity.

Don’t see any tissue company paying for promoting its product as durable and reusable since that will likely mean less, not more, of it being bought off the shelf. It’s legitimate for health reasons, but otherwise, tissues have planned obsolence built in.

The tissue may be a bit stiffer than it was originally, but still usable.

It’s the tissue company that is willing to pay the most.

My thought too.

Hey, a good Kleenex commercial is nothing to sneeze at!!

There’s a definite yeck factor in this one.

There’s usually that “I was wondering where that went” moment, the first time you put your coat on in the winter.

I would love to endorse some companies but usually the companies “improve” the recipe (making it worse), halt manufacturing the line or go out of business to quickly for them to care about my piddly endorsement.

Call it art and auction it as an NFT.

That brown thing to the rear of Lucy, in the last panel, had better be her hoof, or they’ll be trouble from the comic police.

It’s always something!

Who needs a tissue? Got no sleeves?

No tissue company is going to promote a “feature” that means you need to use less of their product. (thanks for the correction)

Tissues are too weak for me, I need paper towels or handkerchiefs

Once again, at least Danae is out of the house enjoying what the world has to offer.

“A-A-AND ONCE AGAIN, DETAILS ARE THE INK STAIN ON MY BIG PICTURE”

(senses a dramatic (or melodramatic) piece of dialogue in this cartoon)

I thought Danae was about to invent a reusable tissue made out of cloth. Then her bubble would burst when her dad or sister told her that the handkerchief had already been invented.

It’s a proprietary eponym.

Famous TV commercial from the 1960’s.

Famous trumpeter Harry James tied a wet Kleenex around his horn and blasted away.

“They got added strength…so they won’t break through….

I can’t believe that no one mentioned that burger from last winter that look like it was recently bought.
