Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 02, 2010
Transcript:
Alice: I cannot believe I wasted the whole day watching stupid Dill follow a stupid bug. Petey: Why'd you do it? Alice: I thought the bug would go somewhere only bugs know about or reveal some mysteries of nature or find hidden candy someone had dropped. Instead, it ran around shaking hands and crossed the stupid street so we couldn't follow. Next time I waste a whole day like that, I'll make Mom go along so we can at least cross the stupid street. Petey: Better take Dad too, just to make sure.

Love Petey’s take on the whole thing.

Alice never loses her self-confidence, even when frustrated at wasting the whole day! Petey’s restraint is measured.

Well, Alice, you could have found something else to do.

I love it: “I can’t believe I wasted the whole day following a bug! The next time I waste a whole day following a bug…”
What I like about Petey is, he doesn’t point out the absurdity of a situation, he rolls with it because, I suppose, that’s what life is made of.

All three were still there at 5:45 P.M. Y’all are not flagging enough. I did anyway, even though it’s late.

Aryalover, we flag, but the mods don’t do week-ends, in as much as we wish they did.

Yum! There’s nothing better than hidden candy left out side and crawling with–I mean, discovered by bugs.
