Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for November 26, 2022

Don’t tell Petey that lesson!

“I don’t feel challenged as a hunter-gatherer.” Richard’s occasional dialogue choices crack me up more than almost any other aspect of these strips!

I would think the “Gatherer” part means you’d just get gathered… ☺

Learning is always more fun when it’s spontaneous and not prescribed.

Alas for Alice’s education, Mr.Danders is decidedly not a reliable teacher….

He’s kind of describing capybaras…
