Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 28, 2023

Maybe if the pancakes or waffles had bacon in them…all carnivores love bacon… <3

Badgers will eat just about anything if they’re hungry enough.

And, for that reason and others, Wally hates badgers…

Daddy Otterloop needs to waffle a bit in his answers to Alice.

Forget badgers. Alice should go back down the rabbit hole.

Pancakes? Leave it to beavers.

Badgers? We don’t need no stinking badgers!

Waffles over pancakes any day!

WAFFLES!!!!

This scholarly source appears to agree with Alice’s interpretation: https://www.jimbobart.com/products/arewehavingpancakesplate

I specifically remember that badgers like eggs benedict.

I have it on good authority that certain badgers love honey!

This resident of WI enjoys both…

But do you know? I find it hard to believe that a badger would turn down a pancake, and it’s a good idea to let it eat if it wants it.

Badgers hate waffles? Does this mean Rip Haywire is secretly a badger?

Alice seems very knowledgeable.

Reminiscent of “Little Known Facts,” by Lucy van Pelt.

Sorry, Alice, but Ma Nature does not have to conform to your four-year-old fantasies. Some day you will understand, and you may even appreciate Dad’s attempts to be supportive….

I have a sneaking suspicion that the badger is Alice’s spirit animal.
