Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for February 13, 2024

Swachariah Zope One time there were 778 movies. One time I was two years old. I don’t get this one. Did he binge watch that many movies in a yearor appear in that many movies in a year?

One time there were 220 dogs.

May the Lord be with you as He is with me.

Yes Ripley, I believe it. Now, how about finding something fascinating and intriguing?

To nobody’s surprise, the dogs were more interested in the squirrels than the movie.

I hear that movies are not cheap anymore, so I hope he had a lot of money for tickets.

Zach Swope must be a lonely man if he went to all those movies alone. I wonder if he worked at the theater? That’s a lot of movies.

That guy beat my record of 80 movies in 1997.

But when’s Zach Swope going to start his life?

Is Ripley running out of things to report on? What’s next? “Phil Weedrick visited every Taco Bell in the Oklahoma panhandle in a month!”

Happy Mardi Gras, believe it or not.

Really? Somebody, related to somebody else, enjoyed a movie? That’s BION? Well, maybe, considering what hollowood has been putting the last few decades…..

Barbie Oppenheimer is probably related to Robert as twenty seventh cousin three times removed….and that is reason to have name stardom? Thankfully her last name was not Dahmer.This comic is getting desperate for content.

777 movies are more than the number released in the USA and Canada.

Mr. Swipe looks very pale – almost as if he has spent most of his life in darkness…

777? He looks like he should get out in the sunshine more often!

Mr Swope then wrote the cost of the movie tickets off on his 2023 income taxes claiming the tickets were a business expense as he was “researching what theaters still serve freshly made popcorn with real butter”

Zachariah, having no life to speak of, used all the Covid Stimulus checks (didn’t know it needed or how to stimulate it) to spend on movies viewing, living it in a cineplex, living fantasy vicariously.

Ha! I would have thought that “Professor Barbie” would have long ago carried an even stronger name association!

Why are every one of these “facts” movie related?

I can think of much more worthy causes for the money spent on those 777 movie tickets. Just saying.

Why is this comic so pixelated? It looks terrible, like it was scanned with a really low dpi. It’s the only one I subscribe to that looks bad.

You need to tell RBION about his amazing accomplishment. They do take ideas from readers! While you’re at it, be sure to include some from southern IN. ;)

So theme today are 3 boring nobodies with nothing to show for. Thanks Ripley. I sure believe it!

And 770 of them were lousy
