Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 15, 2010

Petey 1, Alice zip. Although the mental picture of Dill with his head in the piano is pretty funny…

It’s okay, Dill. When I was your age I got myself stuck in a “Grimace” playground toy at McDonalds. For you young’uns, Grimace was the purple monster who liked milkshakes. In the McDonalds commer… oh, just get off my lawn.

Ernesto found the Fountain of Age, got older, and still got no respect. Perhaps age does not afford respect anymore.

LOL, Fweem. (I’m old enough to remember Grimace and the whole gang.)

Also, I agree with Petey too. His story is funnier.

My vote is for the head in the piano. Hiding in a closet is more tragic, though.

Cue the Greek chorus.

It wouldn’t be Petey’s story if it weren’t more tragic.

And I remember Grimmace!

You had to be there, Alice.

“Except it WAS Dill”. That explains so much!

A little rendition of chopsticks is what got Dill UNstuck.

I not only remember Grimace, I also remember when he was called “Evil Grimace” and stole shakes from the other characters.

For once Dill was able to pull some strings to get some attention.

“Except it was Dill…” That’s why Petey’s is funnier.

I want a visual of the “Dill” incident!

Dill being Dill, the head-in-piano scenario is not only possible, it was inevitable…

The question remains, though… Is the piano still playable, with all that gum in it?

Some of the comments were funnier than today’s comic , and I loved today’s comic .

We all know Dill will get his head stuck in something else on Monday.

Petey… always the literary type.

So who else remembers McD’s when they only sold burgers and fries and didn’t have any place to sit. ….before all the kiddie characters.
