Rubes by Leigh Rubin for October 24, 2023

awww, poor little guy

And next time, make an appointment. You can’t just pop in.

A good dermatologist might be able to help that puffy skin, too.

Maybe he’s got a yeast infection!!

There goes one sour dough!

He’s a slow starter.

Regarding how to deal with the part where he gets poked in the belly all the time, my suggestion would be for him to wear an armored chest plate.

In true dough fashion though he must “rise” to the occasion, what ever that might be.

That’s a diagnoses he didn’t knead to hear.

He’s not laughing now.

At least it’s not a yeast infection!!!!!

I figured he’d have abs by now from all that poking

I didn’t think he was baked yet.

I hate companies advertising that their product doesn’t have gluten when it never had any in the first place…

This is beginning of the new slogan, poke me one more time and I’ll kick your butt!

Aww, poor Poppin’ Fresh!

He was hoping for a miracle to satisfy his kneads.

A smaller percentage of humanity has the genetic condition for celiac than left-handedness or even those with intersex traits and yet half my grocery store touts gluten-free.

There’s a grain of truth to the diagnosis.

Poke me once, shame on you. Poke me twice, shame on Pillsbury for objectifying me while showing no consideration for my delicate condition.

Like the Far Side duck who was allergic to down.

Doughboy, that’s a tough one!

Oh I just read the poor guys obituary. Seems he got poked to many times in the stomach.

We can only hope he gets butter on his own.
