Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for February 05, 2024

Duke is going to get even with Louie for this.

Who’s gonna sue who??

Kismet! Turn up the Rachmaninoff.

“No, no, I’m just thinking law-suit.”

Duke filing one for letting him freeze, or you you file one against him to blocking an exit path?

Using the courts to grift? who’d a thunk it?

Out back for a smoke, eh? How casual that remark must’ve seemed back in 2001. Last week, while walking across a grocery-store parking lot, I encountered someone coming the other way smoking a cigaret. It seemed odd. It’s been literally years since I’ve seen anything like it. Wouldn’t bother me in the least if it’s decades before I see it again.

Give Duke the Curly Howard treatment and literally roast him on a spit….

Not on-topic, but has Trudeau ever depicted the circumstances under which Duke became a family friend of the Harrises (which is why Zonker addresses him as “Uncle Duke,” not because Duke is his actual uncle but because that’s what he called Duke as a child; calling the friends of one’s parents “uncle” and “aunt” is fairly common among children)? Duke used to be a lot different, so perhaps he had more in common with the Harrises back then.

It’s a Shining moment

Duke is going to sue the waiter for revealing his location.

If Honey gets to him, he’ll sue for disalienation of affection. :)
