Gray skies are gonna clear up

Put on a Norm face

Wipe of the clouds and cheer up

Put on a Norm face

The mask behind the man.

Maybe you all are. I shall remain The Outlier.

Or, maybe the Norm is just a mask all us weirdos hide behind.

I asked my friend Albert about this. I said, “why be Norm, Al?”

Wonderful!

We are more kin than we might admit.

I don’t know, lately it seems we’re all The Wonk.

Couldn’t you have picked someone other than Wonk?

Wonk truly idolizes the Norm

Normal is over-rated. A little strangeness, now and then, is a good thing. And anything worth doing is worth doing to excess.

Question: What is the polite response to being told by someone you barely know, “You’re weird!”

Answer: “Why thank you! What a nice thing to say!”

I’m guessing Mr Jantze saw his shadow and went back to sleep…. Look for the next strip on 16 March.
