The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 25, 2012

Bobby GIlmore probably sent her a parallelo-gram.

But you’ve got a couple of acute angels.

Don’ t be obtuse.

Mom makes a good point.

Looks plane & solid to me.

Mom, he also said I look like the mailman.

Sweetie, it’s time I told you the truth – you’re adopted.

Bet Bobby is an Oval-teen.

♪♫..If I were you, I would hang on to a rhombus girl like me…♪♫

Don’t worry, honey. When you reach puberty, you won’t be flat anymore.

Well, you are rather two-dimensional….

…yeah, well, Bobby’s a square…

This is not giong to be “A Romance of Many Dimensions”.Someone has to remember Edwin Abbott Abbott, dangit.

and then one day she met the origami guy and life suddenly became three dimensional

so can spelling!

Same way here. By my usual noon hour Pacific time there’s nothing but pun-scraps left on the table. But we manage.Very funny stuff today, none fell flat or ended up in the round-file today!

I would say Mom’s right, but none of her angles is.

While Mom is a-cute, she is acting kind of obtuse. ;-)

Tune in next week for more True Tales from Flatland.

Someone has to say it: Flat as a board,…

I wonder if Bobby is a tan gent?

They used to have a pet parrot, but now Polly gone.

Is there an edge in Mom’s voice?
