Brevity by Dan Thompson for August 20, 2011

Guy and rOdd, you’re going to have to make Brevity less brief.

It’s still slipping through the cracks in the internet and disappearing….

Luckily the magnified version is bigger and didn’t get away.

Meanwhile, these guys sure have a LOT of kids — and so many are twins!

Hope twins run in one of their families and not just the milkman’s.

She’d better get her story straight.

What she told him is that straightness is a recessive gene…. and she’s “stick”-ing to it.

Otherwise, this comic would be a bit salty, if not twisted.

Am I the only one who can’t see Brevity today? It’s not on their facebook page yet either. All I see here on GoComics is an empty space with a question mark in a blue square… actually, if that’s the comic, I’m impressed.

The one in the picture on the right looks like it’s wound a bit too tight.

Is anyone else having problems with the Brevity cartoon downloading? I don’t see anything. Been happening alot.

“No, Guy darling… I swear! Rod is just a good, caring friend!”

Reminds me of my family………………….Twisted.

I click on the red X when the comic does not appear. It comes right up …

When one parent has a clockwise twist and the other is a counter-clockwise twist the result is always “Straight” offspring.

Good One Guy & Rodd ! !

Wow.. this was a tough one. Perhaps a caption to give us lesser persons with a clue of what we are suppose to look for.

Of course the genes will experience a tendency to favor one or the other ancestor in future generations so the gene pool is not so blended or evolve into another variety like the pretzel that is tied with no twist

Love the picture of the bottle of mustard on the wall!

He is twisted right, and her left, so maybe the straight ones are just the additive result.

we have the regular panel image fixed now. It may require a refresh. Apologies.

Those are the growth phases of pretzels. Born molded in similar pattern to adults, straighten out to begin their development, then reach sexual maturity with either a right- or left-twist. The pictures is the matriarch of the family.

This is somebody’s idea of humor? Not mine.

Cute!

My mind must be on a different wavelength lately. This is another one I do not get at all.

Konrad, you are not the only one. I’m so glad I am not alone

Maybe they’re a blended family and the kids have grown up and married outside of their shapenicity like their parents. Yes,folks,I’ve invented a new word right off the cuff!
