Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for July 19, 2022

fair point, Petey

I wouldn’t want to go to the park either, if I had a couch like that to sit on.

Rather than DOOM, Baby’s aimless gesturing speaks more to “well, whaddya gonna do?” baby.

lol “uh oh” (with the hands in the air) was the first word my niece learned

Baby, traditionally, is used for children until about three, and this is still true in most languages. For an example in English, Crane uses ‘baby’ in just this way near the beginning of Maggie

Madeline summons her inner Fritzi Ritz!

Not solving the “horrifying” part, Petey ;)

“Uh-Oh Toddler” just doesn’t have the same ring.

“Uh oh entity?”

As long as it doesn’t grow up to be the Uh-oh teenager.

Would someone please explain why the preschoolers are so scared of the toddlers?

I don’t blame you, Alice. That is creepy. I wouldn’t go back to that sandbox either. At least not until someone screen sifts it for, uh, unmentionables.

It’s all over, you’re doomed now

No room for sanity when dealing with Irrational Fears, Petey.

Plus, “Uh-Oh Baby” sounds more ominous….
