The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 27, 2023

Hey, that was a gut punch!!

It’s conning you.

Like most colons, he is full of crap!

I’ll be laughing all day over this.

They could cut him down to size, but then he’d be a semicolon.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened. Odd things happen around inhalant anesthesia.

Patient’s name – John Hurt.

Colin the Colon calling!

He really is a smart as$ you might say!

Annnnnd nobody noticed he flat-lined.

A condescending colon won’t take sh*t from anyone.

That’s what I call an irritable bowel.

Those hot wings he had yesterday were so good going in.

Verthy intesting, but shtoopid.

Don’t worry its not all there it’s a semi-colon

After two resections, I can relate! LMAO‼️☺️

How timely, I am on my clear fluid diet, colonoscopy time is 2:30 today.

If he didn’t (or wasn’t even planning to) before, now the doctor really wants to take him out.

The puns are endless on this one!

I hope that’s his colon, if not he is blessed.

Had a condescending colon, so I had 18” removed. That fixed it.

Now I know why people hate his guts!!

Sounds like other things besides food inflames him. He certainly has a lot of bile!

There’s so much creativity in the comics we see! THIS one comes from some very strange place in Scott’s imagination…

Quick – tap his funny bone!

colons can be really irritable

When the colon speaks, you may not like to hear it.

Cecum and you shall find it.

Johnny Cash…”Ring of Fire”

Colon-ial humor.

A “condescending colon” can’t be a descending colon due to the customary stick-up-the-arse.

With a mouth like that we gonna cut you out…

to deal with that colon requires intestinal fortitude…

To its credit, it does have a self defecating sense of humor.

Humor helps you get over the ickiness of the prep, but don’t refuse the procedure. I had a coworker that died of colon cancer because he was not given a colposcopy soon enough. He was only 50 when he died. I still miss him after all these years. He was so full of life. My Dad had his first colonoscopy procedure and the found a softball sized tumor. It took two procedures to find it, though. Fortunately, the tumor was removed and lived 15 more years. He lived to 97 when cancer again returned. He died peacefully with hospice care and me by his side. Sorry for the long comment.
