Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 01, 2010
Transcript:
Mom: It says that at Camp Toonaway you sit and read comic books all day, almost, in a controlled environment. And you get badges for integrating aspects off the cartoons into your personality. Petey: Well, you know, I've always tried to be like Little Neuro. Mom: And their on-site dietitian specializes in picky menus!

I’d rather put a gun to my head.
What avatar is that Marg?

A controlled environment?
Lord knows I need to be controlled.

Leaky, it’s a jester for April Fool’s day. Yours is too small, I can’t begin to guess.

WOW sounds like Camp Petey !!! . does this mean they have a separate camp for annoying little sisters who like to sing about every puddle having a rainbow?
leakysqueaky712 over 14 years ago
I like it Marg, but Petey would be frightened.

You can tell Petey’s swayed. And for Alice, a camp where every kid gets their own manhole cover to sing and dance on.

Careful, she’s going out of her way to convince you, Petey.

That had to enter the equation sooner or later, but is it a ruse to get him to go?. Better read the pamphlet carefully yourself, Petey.

Time to add ‘gullible’ to Petey’s long list of phobias.

But cdward, if everyone else had a manhole cover, where would she get an audience?

Where do you sign up?

Doc escaped? I think not my friend.

Mom sounds as persuasive as the witch from “Hansel and Gretel”.

ah, I think that mom might just be seeing up Petey with an April Fool’s–but that would be mean, and she’s not mean. I wanna go to that camp!! Richard, if you start one you might have attendees from right here! Oh, Dr. T–your coffee took a trip to Garfield this week, did you see?

I’d have 12 badges by the time I got there.

Most of us don’t need to go to a camp to read comics all day long - that’s what we do all day long as it is…lol

This sounds great! Go for it, Petey!

I still think he should go to Camp Paris Island. It gives new meaning to the phrase,”Hit the Beach”!

I really like the mom in this strip.

I discovered I was integrating Petey’s personality into my own, but I only got as far as the crippling inertia and couldn’t go any further…

omg after 2 days I would have won all the badges. I like reading manga and acting like the characters
