@ Prof P.C. Gumby: GLACE-i-er [place] here in SoCal.Glass – [e ] – ure on BBC shows. Other pronunciations? It sorta plays [impinges] on the pun, no-doubtlessly.
I think the relevance is a lot of ‘Readers’ would like to see Andy take a long walk on that Pier.Very long.The 80% relevance is Comic humour related; not merely Strip related, Prof. A. a. H. Gumby.
Speaking of Professors, I’m the good friend of a Mister S. E. Gumby, of Westminster, isquire, ltd. Shown here after a recent Guy Fawkes conflagration- -celebration observance.Professor Gumby is tied-to the tenure-track of studying Oologyology, the ancient, learned study of studying ology studying. Professor Gumby is currently serving as a TA to himself, under the threat of failing grades on the open-book test.
Ever wonder why Andy spends so much time at the Public?Wonder no further Z Nag, nag, nag. He’s probably watched the same show on another Channel [prolly th’ Whites’; why pay fer two?] and full-well knows all the answers. Why ask Him one there’s no answer too?. . . One can only turn-up the volume so far to drown-out that ceaseless, stentorian blast. . .amplifiers didn’t go to eleven, yet.
My uncle was a contrarian.He would do all the following:Question the unquestionable.Think the unthinkable.Speak the unspeakable.Remark on the unremarkable.Deny the undeniable.Forget the unforgettable.Believe the unbelievable.Accept the unacceptable.Bear the unbearable.Desire the undesirable.Rely on the unreliable.Mention the unmentionables.Drove my aunt up the wall.
@MikeyjAnother excellent alternate universe (alternate cartooniverse?) Andy adventure. Dare we hope for a “Futurama” Andy? (I’m sure that Flo and several other people would like to “bend” him!)

Antarctica is a continent. A glacier is a formation of ice on land. The Lambert Glacier is the World’s largest and is found on Antarctica.

Actually is is Lambert Glacier in Antarctica. Couldn’t leave a trivia question unanswered. It’s a character flaw.

Does "going on a bender” mean repeatedly bending one’s elbow?
Godfreydaniel almost 12 years ago
From the Monty Python philosopher’s drinking song, not so much the bending of the elbow as the raising of the wrist:
There’s nothing Nietzsche couldn’t teach ya‘bout the raisin’ of the wrist.Socrates himself was permanently pissed.

I’m glad someone enjoyed them – I was beginning to wonder.Since you liked them, it was all worthwhile.
