Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for August 27, 2016
Transcript:
Danae: Wait...so every advancement in history came from your planet, Lars? Jeffrey: 'Fraid so. Lars: Going from the horse-and-buggy to the moon landing in 70 years...you thought humans did that alone? The only thing you talking monkeys have done on your own is turn all of our benign knowledge into weapons! Danae: Oh...doesn't that make you guys the slow learners? Jeffrey: Really, really not helping. Lars: Oh, and rationalization. Talking monkeys have that nailed.

Nothing on our own, except rationalization. About correct Lars. So maybe Danae and Jeffrey could be a difference if. . .

The most intellectual strip we have left. Operates on multiple levels of humor and irony.
