Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for November 03, 2024

Next stop: the hospital.

Always listen to the Greek chorus.

There is no present like the time.

In the Mutts comic strip, Earl says, “Nothing lasts forever!”

“Why is there something rather than nothing” is one of the great philosophical questions, as Melody asks the reverse.

Yeah… a “smart” Horace would listen to Sine!

… but we all know he’s not gonna!

Horace, you jerk.

But the back-up gift really is something.

Not clocks a gift horsie in his mouth!

There’s a big difference between wishful thinking and reality.

I wish there had been a little birdie to tell me all the times I was about to do something stupid.

Personally, if I were Melody, I would just concede that I set myself up for that and take my lumps for it. :P

Horsie has no horse sense…

listen to the bird, Horace…

“ I thought about getting you something nice, and it’s the thought that counts.”

I guess nothing is sacred. To Horace, at least.

(But to the late Kris Kristofferson, nothing ain’t worth nothing, but it’s free.)

LITTERALLY, Horace, you’re a horses @ss! ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Panel 1: The early bird gets the worm, and promptly deposits it into the sleeping horse’s mouth.

she got plenty of nothing

The early bird catches the worm and feeds it to the sleeping horse.

Horace, reconsider. Getting slapped with a horseshoe really hurts.

Stop! in the name of love,

Before she breaks your head!

I brought my girlfriend a gift-wrapped box of salt, because I had seen she was running out (and I was dead-broke). It did not go over as well as I had hoped, even with the handwritten message on the box. :(

Blessed are those who expect nothing for they shall not be disappointed.

My sister did the exact same thing as Horace here. She asked our father one day what he wanted for his birthday and he said “Nothing”, so she got him a jar with nothing in it and on our father’s birthday gave it to him and said, “Here you go, Dad. It’s exactly what you wanted. I call it the Jar of Nothing!”
