Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 17, 2023

Or a gag order.

Doesn’t always work now.

The caveman may be the judge, but there is no jury and the tigers are the executioners.

Restraining orders never were worth the time and effort to obtain.

The first legal meal.

Don’t strain yourself.

Unfortunately, they aren’t particularly effective with humans. Anyone that earns the right to have a restraining order put up against them, deserves to spend some cool down time in prison, and should have to pay for the security detail required to keep the person they are to keep away from safe.

it probably tastes like chicken

Incidentally, also the first instance of Grub Hub. They didn’t leave 5 stars, but they got paw prints galore.

They will ah-peel…the skin from his body before eating him.

Earl “walked right through that restraining order and put Her in intensive care”

Not the first, however.

“Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

Yet somehow lawyers survived and evolved.

‘Lawyer’ is actually ancient caveman for decoy. Coincidentally, its also ancient saber tooth for appetizer.

Can anyone guarantee that there was no lawyer present when the apple changed hands?

sorry, no restraint. sue me

Here kitty, kitty, kitty.

Reminiscent of the legal tactics of a certain doomed Orange Florida Man.

Better Call Saul.

I’ll take a full helping of party of the first part and I’d like a sample of the party of the second part, with a nice chianti. .

Eating Lawyers is kinda like eating Oysters, you have to be OK with a certain amount of slime.

The saber-toothed tigers are obviously not going to use any restraint in their behavior.

The second attempt at a legal defense: Pepper spray

Stegasauruses have hard shells,so they had to settle for humans(body hair and all)

To misquote Shakespeare, “First eat all the lawyers.”

It’s just about as effective as it is today. Difficult to keep the Predators at Bay. They don’t play by the rules.

The one on the left looks amused.

I’ve observed that, in modern times, human predators are also dismissive of restraining orders.

The power of that paper hasn’t changed since then from what I can tell.

Ever notice that Wiley’s animals are always happy and smiling but the humans, not so much?

I’ve read that wolves were domesticated at the cave entrance. The theory is that bones were tossed to the them and their presence kept other predators at bay. And the relationship with canines developed.

I’d think he ought to try making friends with the sabre-tooth cats; threatening them won’t do any good – they’re already the enemy …

looks about as effdective as today’s restraining orders ‘protecting’ women.

Training your cats didn’t come about for a few more decades (well, 500 or 600 decades).

If defense doesn’t work, try de wall

A not so great moment for evolution.

“First we eat all the lawyers.”

They ae about to invent the shredder.

They are about to invent the shredder.

Fortunately, attorneys are edible, although tough and gamey tasting.
