Brevity by Dan Thompson for June 24, 2012

Maybe she’s looking for a turtleneck.

“Would you like to see our railroad model? It has a long train and a small caboose?”

Arch…. she said earlier that she doesn’t like shoes with ties, so maybe that’s a little off track.

A pretty fancy place, if they bring things out to show you.

But she’s nervous about cheap stores….her mother once bought a house dress in one and got shingles.

Of course, she really could have nailed them in court…. but it wasn’t in her plans.

The joke’s about the advertising on the dress,dude. Please don’t make this a morality issue.

Blackwolf — Is THAT what Baslim’s comment is about?

I couldn’t figure it out.

Baslim…. if not, where are you seeing anything about undersized, oversize, drinking or sex????

I can’t tell how big the dress is, or what she plans to wear it for…. but it’s only “racy” cos it has a race car motif.

Baslim… Oh!But then what does she wear the racy dress for?Nascar events?And an ultramarine dress when she’s sad (blue) and a Michelin logo dress when she’s tired?

How can it be racy when that one logo’s gonna make her look like a blimp?

Hardly fitting at-tire.

If it’s a shotgun wedding she’s liable to blow a tire….

Baslim, It is a store that sells wedding gowns. She is not shopping for a dress to wear to a bar to pick someone up. But in any event, it is a cartoon.

haha

Baslim and SusanSunshine…coffee through the nose this morning. Very funny! But I have to admit, I don’t get the “wedding” dress sign either.

Thank you, Miss Scarlet….

And yes…. Baslim’s 2nd comment explains that he was making puns, not crusading about morality….and I replied in kind.

Dress as mood-signal: undersized when she’s tight(drunk) oversize when she’s “loose”…. Michelin logo when she’s tired…(that one was bad enough the first time, and I had to go and repeat it.)

As for that sign…First I thought it was there to show us it was a wedding dress…especially as they might be more likely to have an attendant to show you dresses.But then it sort of looked like it was across the street…and I was half asleep, so I thought maybe not.I do think now that I was right he first time…and she certainly doesn’t want a Goodyear logo on her wedding dress!…..as LLarry notes.

Wedding store is this one (sign is on a flying buttress or such, just so we can see it. If i were the wrong store they would not sell tiaras.

It would be appropriate for a red-neck wedding The bride, groom and her children were all wearing NASCAR t-shirts and caps. The worse part was that they re-started the ceremony when somebody showed up with a videocamera.
