Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for January 07, 2013

Mongolia hasn’t been a “superpower” since the 1200s, so that would be a bad deal. The Klingon Empire on the other hand would be a pretty good choice.

Never, NEVER discuss superpowers with someone with a sock in his mouth

Panel Three:It’s just dawning on Buckey that maybe Satch is on a different page.Darby genius at work!

My flex-payment to my internet provider hasn’t taken effect yet (making my connection extremely slow), so the comments loaded long before the strip did. So, all the talk about superpower nations set me up perfectly.

Thanks.

unnormal, yeah, Darby is in rare form here….anybody here ever played Risk? Do you know how hard it is to hold Asia? Yeah, I’d go with America too…

I love it when Satch plays obtuse. He knows how crazy it makes Bucky, but he does it with such finesse Bucky really thinks he’s dumb. I had a coworker who specialised in it, too. Keeps people from asking you for extra help.

to many people who think being in charge of a country is a good thing. it may also be a curse.

I am now singing “Little White Sock” in my mind.

Cheer up R2 Wolf! Al Gore said he Fixed the environment with the Clean Air Act! Course he does his best to pollute more than his fair share. But he’s allowed because: he Cares!

AMERICA F**K YEAH!

That sweet pooch knows a superpower when he sees it.

I’d take the Death Star… muahahahahahahaha!

The way obama’s running this country into the ground Mongolia will definitely be more of a superpower then America.

Emperor Norton’s realm would be a good match for the Buckster.

Yeah,the Mongol hords are so yesterday…

I must be more tired than I thought…it took me a couple of seconds to get the double entendre…

I find this mistake hard to buy. “Superpower” is far more often used in the fantasy sense, and Satchel doesn’t show much political interest.

OMG! A new strip!!!!! Satchel is in fine form misunderstanding superpowers. I think I’d like invincibility.

Taking Australia makes sense… but you should also include New Zealand. The love/hate relationship would work well..I was on Bucky’s page, not Satchel’s. Wolverine had good superpowers.

That’s our sweet Satchel… so obliging that you don’t even have to tell him to stuff a sock in it.

Vizzini, in “The Princess Bride”Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders – The most famous of which is “never get involved in a land war in Asia” – but only slightly less well-known is this: “Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line”! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha…

Historically, twenty years after a people invade China, they are known by a particular name: Chinese.

I have never played Risk. But see the benefit of taking a land mass with only one border … the ocean. …. That’s why Canada wouldn’t work, that undefended border thingie. …. we would have to infiltrate, slowly.. But not too slowly! LOL

Doctor Toon. Yes, that is the best strategy because it only has one defense point….But if you can get North America, it only has 3…..Great game…

BTW, In our games we allowed one “air drop” of armies per player……

Playing Risk against my son, I lose.

BTW, in our games we allowed each player one “air drop” (Up to ten armies…) into enemy territory….say, in the middle of Asia, Mongolia only has two armies on it…..You can start a whole knew front inside the enemies territory…Kinda changes things…
