Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 22, 2024

See? She’s absolutely annoying!

If she told him, he wouldn’t believe her and would ask, “So, what were you really doing?”

Her superiority complex needs to be toned down, but I fear for the psychiatrists mental state of mind after having to deal with her.

Maybe they were doing something interesting.

A tip of the rainbow banded skimmer this Pride Month for the “Don’t Ask. Don’t Tell” stealthy inference. And for all of you going to the parade this afternoon,,,, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. It’s going to be a hot one out there.

Watch it, Danae, or you may have to tolerate the Wrath of Father.

She wants a compartmentalized world – one where she gets to dictate. You’d think the continual disappointment in that would give her a clue.

I have to adopt that policy in my home.

Applying what one has learned before a more complete understanding. Danae is the poster child.

Dad’s not worried that his darling girl might be pregnant, because of her distaste for icky boys

I missed the “don’t ask, don’t YELL” the first time thru. My brain filled in with the expected “tell”

She needs a swat!

Time to crack the whip on that attitude. Be a Dad not a buddy.

Danae makes this strip fun and interesting. She is a good character

Just ground her till she talks.

A living, breathing example of why contraception is 100% essential to a civilized society.

Doesn’t matter, she will be found out, it’s just a question of when.

I occasionally observe of my chosen profession that “The second hardest, second most important, and second most rewarding job in the world is teaching.”

This prompts some people to ask me what’s #1. I figure they’re the ones who aren’t parents themselves.

This calls for a thick belt.

Seems like a reasonable policy … served the armed forces quite well for, oh, a few months.
