Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for September 25, 2011

I would say throwing paint on somebody 5 times your size is very bad karma indeed, Buck-o.

Good thing for you it’s Satchel, the gentle giant, who may only pound you half – way to a pulp for it.

Even luckier for you….. sigh…. he probably won’t even do that, in spite of the egging on from a few thousand readers.

My karma just ran over my dogma.

Bucky, as someone who has observed cats mauled by large dogs I would like to suggest something to you. Shut up and hug satchel.

Myself and I have that conversation too, Richard.

It’s not like I ever fell off a 4 ft sidewalk, so why am I terrified 10 feet from a cliff?

Bucky is the definition of “bad luck”.

Add turning your back on a fat cat to the bad luck list.

Violet should have been a totally beneficial color for Satchel, being the culmination of the Chakra Poor Satchel. He needs some fine tuning. And not from Bucky’s tuna fish…….

But if I had no bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.

Sach, that is not karma, this would be a self fulfilling prophecy.

I spilled salt and black cats appeared in front of me and nothing ever happened. It’s all in the head.

Good questions Satch.

Bucky is earning bad karma points. Maybe in his next life he will come back as something less important. To a cat. That would human – with a cat like Bucky as a owner.

Some superstituions are based in fact. Walk under a ladder and the guy at the top of the ladder falls off. Bad for him. Opening the umbrella inside always knocks things over.

Give a shiny new penny with any sharp gift (knife, scissors, axe). That’s was originally to pay the doctor (blacksmith or barber) to tend to your wounds because you were careless.

and so on.

I call character continuity error! Compare today’s strip with this:

.. or just navigate to 1st August’s Get Fuzzy from the little calendar at the top.

I don’t know, my black cat is pretty bad luck, sadly it’s all bad luck for himself.
