Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 18, 2010

it was a warning…the Uh-oh baby has grown!

and it looks like Dill!

Ok, who’s the uh-oh baby? Must have been before I joined gocomics.

The Uh-Oh Baby is the harbinger of ultimate doom. The earth shakes at his approach. His breath is like unto a hurricane. His wrath cracks the very foundations of creation. All children must tread the path of righteousness, else they be cast out into the infinite void by the Uh-Oh Baby.

Beware the Uh-Oh Baby!

In addition to growing, the Uh-Oh baby has also gained considerable volume dynamics!

Third panel … CLASSIC !! Impending doom !!

gulfcoastgrl, to elaborate on (but not detract from) notbugme’s answer, the Uh-Oh Baby is a baby who can say “UH-oh!” and seemingly nothing else. Alice and the gang figure he’s giving a warning (but no details) of some upcoming catastrophe, so they freak out whenever he appears.

There’s something happening here, What it is ain’t exactly clear. There’s a baby saying “UH-oh!” over there, Telling me I’ve got to beware…

Doom looms, dear friends, doom looms.

Stay tuned.

Uh Oh Baby made a cameo appearance in a recent Bizarro strip… it was May 16.

Why am I trembling…

Oh no oh no, it’s the big UH-OH! What it means, no one can know! Does he parrot bigger warnings, or in words that he’s just forming, call out just to see the fear? UH-OH baby, he is near!

Let’s all say it together! UH-OH SPAGHETTI-O’S! :)

Who knows for whom the uh-oh tolls…

….it tolls for thee.

The lyrics fritzoid posted are from the song “For What It’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield.

Could it be the Uh-Oh toddler?

“Stop children, what’s that sound. Everybody look what’s going down.”

I almost went to Kent State that year, but decided to go elsewhere..almost on a coin flip.

LillyA Thanks…….. uh ………. I think.

Boy do I feel stupid. (Boy am I stupid, you say?) Young and Stills came from Buffalo Springfield to join Crosby and Nash.

It’s strange. I read the words and heard the song in my head with those great voices and instrumentation and forgot this rather important detail. I still think CSNY-BF-Byrds(Crosby) produced some of the finest music ever.

Didn’t see that one coming – the uh oh!! toddler – that sounds bad….

Don’t feel too bad, poohbear; I don’t doubt that CSN&Y play “For What It’s Worth” in concert fairly often, same as they’ve been known to play “Mr. Soul.”

(“CSNY-BF-Byrds”? Buffalo Fringspield? Silly old bear!)

Nice call back to Sarcophagus Macabre in your earlier post, Fritz.

Jo Jo, I’m glad it didn’t go entirely unnoticed.

Can’t wait!

The glove was casting an omen or whatever you do with omens!

OMG… wow, unexpected. Though at first glance I thought it was Dill…
