Nancy by Olivia Jaimes for December 06, 2020

It looks like Nancy intentionally tried to break that ornament.

Can’t ya just punish her?

Fritzi’s hairbrush is waiting in the wings!!!

Bouncy toys are a recipe for disaster. Looks like even Nancy got more chaos than she bargained for here.

One ball bouncing managed to destroy a vase and a picture frame, and knock over a Christmas tree. I wonder if there will even be a house left after 8.

Fritzi encounters a a rare demonstration of economics.

I doubt she’ll mind, though – she looks pretty blissed out with her music* and a nice red.

*I like to think she’s listening to Riot Squad or Bad Brains or something.

This may be a first. I can’t ever remember seeing a light bulb in a ceiling light fixture before in Nancy’s room. But then it is a strange room. Who would buy a house with the only window in the room scrunched off in the corner?

Given Nancy’s expression throughout, she’s not thrilled with decorating the tree nor with destroying it. Makes you wonder what her gameplan was.

Looks like the tree needs to be on a “Weebles wobble, but they don’t fall down” base.

Two great things about the modern Nancy… Aunt Fritzi looks human, not some bizarre malformed idea of a woman drawn by someone who’s not seen one up close (see Blondie) and Fritzi acting like a modern woman with kids around (wine, see again Blondie who is probably still using the old fashioned Valium of the olden times).

Of course, you realize that kind of bounce can break windows and mirrors, right?

Two vases in one bounce. Reminds me of Walt Disney’s demonstration of a chain reaction, using mousetraps, and ping pong balls.

My concern here is that dropping a ball straight down will generally not cause it to then bounce away at a 45 degree angle.

Some children just should be put down. For their own good.

The best laid schemes of mice and… aunts.

Nancy is increasingly falling under the sway of the evil dog.

most excellent

Clever. :)
