The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 28, 2021

Thimk…..again.

Sometimes it happens. What I can suggest is a song by Aretha Franklin.

Happens to me all the time!

Sometimes thinking makes you forget. Just wait until you remember what you were thinking about and then do your thinking.

When I think too much it makes my head hurt.

Brutus, at this point you’re lucky that you know your name!

If you can’t remember what you were thinking about, it must not have been important!! Works for me!!

/SHMIRK/

Thinking just doesn’t come natural to some people.

Don’t worry, Boss, he’s thinking about how he forgot what he was thinking about. The sign works!

That’s okay Brutus. Veeblefester doesn’t encourage thinking in his office anyway. He likes obeying far more.;D

I can see the motivational poster now. The picture would be of a squirrel on one of those motorized bird feeders that spin, and right below that pic would be the word expressed above.

Was/is the internal slogan at IBM. We of course translated to Scheme.

Oh well. Maybe tomorrow.

He’s thinking that the lettering on the “THINK” sign isn’t even.

My problem is trying to forget about things I keep thinking about.

What are I commenting on?

Brutus you got this. Grab a pen and paper. Might help. In fact never mind.

Teachers used to tell us to put on our thinking caps. I never could find mine.

I think. Therefore I forget…

must not be too important then. think of something else… like donuts the size of Farris wheels. :D

they should remove the exclamation point before brutus strains himself…

The third panel is rather Rodinesque.

I sometimes watch a youtube program called “Just have a think”. But, there are times when I view it that I think they didn’t think it through.

Thinking can be a hazard at times.

Thorny, if you ever have an “idea”, be kind to it. It’s a stranger in a strange land.

Just don’t overthink it, Brutus.

" I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I’m not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant"

Somewhere in here I lost my train of thought.

IBM?

Brutus, we’re in the same boat and we’re all on the good ship Titanic…

He lost his motivation.

Happens to the best of us Brutus. Don’t worry. If it’s an important idea, it will come back at some point. Hopefully, you weren’t thinking about your wedding anniversary or wife’s birthday that you missed…..

Now Brutus you know better than that, thinking only gives you a headache.

As long as you can remember your parachute before bailing out – you’re 10-4.

Ah, “mental-pause.” I know it well!

I can’t think fast anymore.

That is what happens to me when I read the troll comments, of the editorial comics, in GoComics.

Story of my life.

Obviously, I’m in good company if Brutus has the same memory issues I do.

“I can’t think because the sign is distracting me.”

I was going to leave a witticism but I forgot what it was.

I know what he wasn’t thinking about- PIZZA! Because NO ONE forgets about pizza.

Don’t worry. The sign will do it for you.
