Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 09, 2010
Transcript:
Alice: Who's this utter stranger you're dragging home for a playdate? Petey: Andre Chang. He goes to cartoon camp. He's kind of big and loud and makes exploding noises when he draws. And even when he doesn't draw. Alice: The thought of you having a playdate blows my mind. Petey: Hey, I'm trying not to think about it, okay?

Cant wait to see this potpourri of individuals interact with Alice.

Chillax, Alice! You’ll probably like Andre. Maybe. –As an easy target….

Why should Andre be an easy target for Alice? He’d be competition, as an attention-magnet. Andre may very well blow Alice out of the water.
It occurs to me that Alice may have more trouble with Loris. Loris’s initials are “LS”, which Alice sees as code for her own name. I don’t imagine Alice would handle that very well…

Sometimes you just want to read your comic book because an idea might pop into your head for a new story and the ideas start flowing and…

I think Andre will become Alice’s new love.

Fritzoid, you mean Peter Otterloop Sr. is wrong in thinking it 57?

Time for an awkward pause, I think.

cdward, do NOT betray Dill, how could you!????

Me_Again over 14 years ago
I want to see how Alice will get along with Loris. They’ll either be the best of friends… or the worst of enemies.

Haha, like oil and water they won’t mix but things sure will get colorful while trying.

Ohmygod - One word which would send terror coursing down Petey’s spine - sleepover.
(Or should that be two words?)
BADGER, of course he’s wrong. Parents are always wrong about such things…

Looking like there may be no trip to Geek’s Neck this summer.
Staycation for the Otterloops this year?

qwho knows alice, maybe andre can make noises for you to dance to
fritzoid Premium Member over 14 years ago
If Andre were in the room right now, no doubt he’d have an appropriate sound effect for Alice’s mind being blown.

I think Alice will love Andre .
cdward over 14 years ago
habamom, love is such a fickle thing. I could see Andre and Dill in a cage match over Alice, with Andre providing all the sound effects. Dill’s brothers would provide the cage, of course.
I would love to see Loris and Alice together, Me_Again. But I think they might spontaneously combust (with Andre providing the sound effects once more).
fritzoid Premium Member over 14 years ago
Andre could become Alice’s new best friend, and take the heat off Sappho…Sulphur…Starfish…whatever.

Thank you, Richard for this new addtion to the daily strip. You are one of the finest cartoonists out there, and this addition is one of the reasons why.
