The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for March 21, 2014

Testecles: God of pop quizzes (shame on anyone who thought otherwise).

Okay: So’s your old man! Oh wait…

The Gods must be crazy!

Does Spectacles look like Woody Allen to any one else?

Baldusa, what became of Medusa after her encounter with St Patrick.

Sarcasticles is the god I’ve been looking for. And Mockus is really, really good. I didn’t think of it but I do intend to steal it.

Sub-god "Duvallacles; of debauchery.

If I worshiped Greek gods, Sarcasticles would definitely be my household god.

Androcles: the god of thorny decisions

The last one is hilarious! LMAO!!

Two guys in dark suits came to my house. Foolishly, I let them in. They started telling me about their religion. The gods of work were: Cubicles, obstacles, articles, particles and when traveling, vehicles. Their god of male fertility is vesicles. Their god of cool is icicles. At that point I lost my patience. They caught my look and departed.

Mediocrates, god of “Eh, it’ll get by”

I’m reminded of an old Dennis Wolfberg crack that no one ever uses the ancient, classical names for their children. When, for example, was the last time you ran into a boy named Testicles (for the gag, pronounced tes-ti-kleez)?

Anyone ever hear of Thunderclese?
