Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 08, 2009
Transcript:
Miss Bliss: Let's see what Alice has painted! Alice: I call this "No More Stupid Naps." I'm exploring issues of dominance, ageism and unchecked adult supervisory fascism through post-expressionistic imagery of power, innocence and repression. Miss Bliss: It's very pretty, Alice! Thank you for brightening our classroom with your art! Alice: I think it flew right over her head. Dill: So did my performance piece "No More Stupid Baby Carrots," especially the part when I pretended to regurgitate the orange crayon.

Such talent, wasted upon an audience unable to grasp the deeper meanings portrayed.

I suspect Miss Bliss floats through her day on LOTS of Prozac.

Greeneyedtxn, you can also google icons and avatars. Several websites have cartoon characters and other images that you can use for free as your avatar.

I typed Alice’s explanation in panel two through MS Word… One nineteen-word sentence. Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level: 12.0.
Nice use of the word “regurgitate”. Apropos to public school education.

Thank you to Cleokayla and Terry Godfrey for your help. I was trying to do Alice because I was so much like her as a child but settled for my favorite animal.

Alice is my favorite comic-strip character since Calvin! Come to think of it, she acts a lot like Calvin.

Out of the mouth of babes comes things that no pre-schooler would ever know. I’m not sure I could come up with all that in one sentence.
