Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 16, 2012

I’m with Mrs. Otterloop here. SNERK!!

absolutely!

Richard, you have EARNED retirement; your work is absolutely WONDERFUL.(We just wish the reason for your retirement were different)

I would hate to be sitting anywhere near (say within 3 theaters) of this family at the movies, but I this makes me laugh out loud. The actions/reactions of all of them are priceless.

You can dress them up, but you can’t take them out to the movies. I don’t know these people.

Looks like fellow movie-goer 2 rows up heard enough~

That’s when you just slide over a seat or two and act like you went alone..We all hope you are doing well Mr. Thompson.

Perhaps her hands were cold. Or she just liked the feel of the fuzzy mitteness against her cheek as she ate the popcorn.

This one is great! Their conversation has to be better than that movie. The guy should have stayed – I’m sure it only gets better.

Love the front seat guy’s eyes in panel 3.

This is why ‘home theater systems’ were invented.

Yum. Love to eat popcorn covered in mitten fuzz!

front seat guy adds an extra degree of humor to this strip!

Funny in fiction does not translate into even tolerable in real life. I mean could you put up with Magnum for a room mate or want to live next door to Rockford.

The movie sounds like Christmas Vacation.

Sort of like those Hallmark holiday movies where all the teenage girls are sullen, boy-crazy spoiled brats who obsess over their phones and makeup.

That guy in front…lol.
