Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for October 20, 2024

That’s just evil

Would a bright and cheery crab be better? Probably more evil in this case.

Kinda lose all credibility asking for help in picking your lair colour

Ooh, spelling color with a ‘u’. Aren’t WE the dandy! Yes, we shall retire to my lair the colour of periwinkle for scones and tea!

Lair Periwinkle. I knew him in high school. Heck of a guy.

Obviously you should call it a man cave.

Periwinkle isn’t exactly a color I’d associate with evil.

If Hawthorne were an ordinary hermit crab, wearing just a shell, a periwinkle shell would be a good choice.

Cute comic strip featuring fun set of sea creatures. Though an actual family of sweet sharks sounds a bit fishy…lol.

The evil crab’s lovely assistant Miss Periwinkle

Kippers, baked beans, and blood sausage.

Periwinkle does not sound threatening, I’d go with blood red then accent it with the periwinkle;)

I was going to call it a cave, but then his whole hole is a cave.

Since they are in the ocean, Sherman must mean the colour of the periwinkle snail.

Periwinkle Lair has a nice ring to it.

Meanwhile, I should change the name of mine. I’ll now retire to my crab hole.

A crabhole for the lagoon’s resident as….. never mind..

Saw a meme some months ago about the study as the predecessor of the man cave

The problem with that is that, now that you’ve called it a lair, you can just sit around hanging out doing nothing. You’ve got to be scheming up something. Comes with the territory
