Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for September 16, 2022

Smart ants. Got themselves a wine cellar.

They call their wine cellar a wine basemant.

Time to visit those other ants.

MAKING IT COUNT

If you’re home all winter, booze is a good thing

It’s all about priorities.

the colony’s wine cellar?

Do you serve white or red wine with dead bugs?

Now we now why they run around so haphazardly.

Gotta go for the gusto.

The ones in front are ants. The ones in the back with the bottle are uncles.

Ha! At one time, we had these doors leading to the basement….along with coal bins, and dirt floors….

Classy ants…

Par-tay!!!

Ants have wine cellars!

I hate it when my brain goes all, “How much wine can an ant drink? How many ants would a bottle of wine ‘feed’? Can ants get drunk on alcohol? Do ants recycle? What do ants use to open wine bottles?” And the list continues.

Twist off cap?

Took me a moment to realize that that was a cellar door and not a slice of two-layer cake.

I don’t get it at all. Enlighten me.

Cute, but ants carry things in their mouthparts , not on their backs.

Obviously those insects in the back don’t know good wine. I mean, come on! A screw top?

dont get it

THis reminds me of the brilliant Budweiser ad from 1995 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZyG-tkM8eM

The ones carrying the bottle to the wine cellar are Bon Viv ants.
