Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 31, 2022

Yeeoowwch! Petey took that awfully well.

My brother does that to me!

No Pele here! RIP.

I guess Petey was the goal

Doesn’t Alice usually aim much lower?

Man, that musta hurt; Petey’s got the entire catalog of comic book pain icons floatin’ round his head!

i love how a preschooler can use a word like “elude”

Petey’s distrust of sporting equipment is borne out again. It wasn’t Alice’s fault; that soccer ball was out to get him.

And now it wants more…

Alice just gave him a lesson in why he should think fast, and why he should do so before being warned.

That is a soccer ball. You can’t throw it at your brother. You have to kick it.

Hey Petey. That’s using your head.

Alice is the one that needs some sense knocked into her.

Think fast is what Gandhi did a lot of.

Oh the indignity! A fitting end to the year? One last insult before we start afresh with a New Year? Fortunately for us, there are more Cul de Sac shenanigans to come. Sorry Petey.

Happy New Year to all!
