Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for January 13, 2025

Did he try to correct errors the boss’ Sun Maid?

He has no raisin to grape.

Sounds like sour grapes to me.

My wife is my first editor

The laptop is smarter than I am and fixes multiple errors

Bad writing is all on me, I’m working on it

No raisin, no raisin bran, no raisinettes!

Hmmm, could the reason be because you turned-off Ottocorreckt, Horace?!

He tried to work in a bakery, but there was no raisin’, and so no dough.

I write it like that, but I am working on it, tho

Do your research Horace. When you see the word, “tho,” T-H-O, it’s like an even more casual version of “though,” T-H-O-U-G-H, at the end of a sentence. So, you’ll see this a lot on like social media, you’ll see this when you’re on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram, text messages, maybe. “Tho,” just means “but” but at the end of a sentence…. We all sea why you were fired…!

oh, i bet there was a raisin

Through, that.

Horace, can relate. When my college-educated friend sends me a “how u” as a greeting, I’m very put off.

My phone thinks itself an editor, as it keeps preemptively auto-correcting things to what it THINKS I’m trying to say even before I finish writing it…and almost always guesses wrong. Yet even when I go back and change it to what it should be, sometimes it’ll decide “nah” and change it back to what it thinks it should be anyway.

Dyslexia complicates things for me. Takes forever to write/type two words in a row correctly. Auto- cowreck is the Kiss of Death for me.

yer beter off in dis comic stripe, Horace.

Uh huh! Maybe brush up on your spelling, Horace!

Thinkaboutit!

You’ve still got your comic strip job, tho’. :)

Must have been his dry sense of humor.

He never got to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

such an odd little comic strip

Being an editor is Horace’s raisin d’être.

Why did he get fired? He is not a hell rasin

The inventor of autocorrect died. The funnel will be held tomato
