Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 07, 2016

Bob is dressed to discourage imitation.

Problem is, it’s such a common name. He can easily convince himself that the sign is directed at some other Bob.

I don’t understand. Is it because the briefcase doesn’t go with the shorts? Everything else looks fine.

Sure. Make fun> I think Bob is rocking those culottes.Now the shoes, that is another matter.

Is he on his way to audition with AC/DC?

Obviously, he wasn’t thinking.

Tell them Bob, we’ll wear whatever the hell we want. Carpe Damn Diem!

It could be that Bob is the name of the place he is in. Or the dimension? or He is really tressed for time. Or, or……

The fashion police have been called, Bob, that is definitely worthy of time in the slammer.

“I didn’t think cartoonist knew big words like this,”he says as he looks for his thesaurus.

In this heat…. anything goes….!

Yeah, really, Bob. Fix that mustache.

ben porterBut Walt Kelly only mentioned Bermuda as “The land of the onion and the eel.”

I have reached the age and stage of life where I dress for comfort not for style.Living in warmer climes will do that for you.

Northerners only get to strip down to the essentials for a couple or three months. The rest of the time they remain buttoned up – physically and mentally.

*Bob*’s fashion faux pas wasn’t the shorts – it was the damned tie !

Women made a statement of liberation by burning their bras. Men should have incinerated the necktie, at the same time.

I got rid of the neckties more than 30 years ago ! Even when I wore suits for business, I eschewed the neck noose.It is an anachronistic apparel that serves no useful purpose.

I freaking hate ties….But, damn, I look great in a suit and tie…..I hate suits, too!

It is interesting to think that the most likely reason for the necktie was to act as a bib to protect the shirt underneath from stains.As for myself, I tend to avoid them because I never thought it was a good idea to supply the rope if you’re going to get hung (figuratively, of course).

I think Wiley has some “stock” street corners and just draws his characters in. Nothing wrong with that.

it’s difficult to tell but it seems as if the socks are knee high – what’s the issue here

Bob… What? Were you thinking?

We have a guy who wears Bermudas all year round, over long Johns in winter. Long as he’s comfortable with it, he’s stylish enough.

Checks and vertical stripes ? What were you thinking Bob ?
