Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 09, 2012
Transcript:
Petey: I have made a New Year's resolution. Alice: YOU? Petey: I will no longer express disgust or impatience by chewing my arm off. Alice: But that's the best thing you do! Petey: No, I've matured - I can express myself without crude slapstick. Alice: What'll you do instead? Petey: I can roll my eyes so violently they make a noise. Alice: It's just not the same!

It’s important that children grow at their own pace, and expand their repertoire over time. Rolling your eyes is a good first step, but don’t stop there. Of course, chewing your arm off is a great fall back when you want to go retro occasionally.

I’m with Alice. I’m thinking of taking the habit up myself.

His nose is probably pointier. He’s matured, you know.

I love how Petey doesn’t just chew his arm, he “chews it off” whenever he gets frustrated. I imagine him like a starfish, constantly needing to regrow limbs.
