Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for November 01, 2010
Transcript:
Petey: Here's the Halloween candy I got for you last night. Alice: Oh, boy! Petey: That was the worst trick-or-treating ever. My shoebox kept turning around backwards and the rubber band on Andre's mask kept breaking. GAH. Andre: OUCH! Petey: Nobody took us seriously. They only gave us candy after I said it was for my sick sister. Alice: So it's pity candy.

The worst kind of candy.

Pity candy tastes just as good, Alice.

That’s pretty much the gist of it, Alice. But………..it IS candy.

Hey! Pity candy is still candy. Enjoy it, Alice, and thank big brother for his bother!

I admit it was a pity good idea.

After Alice has eaten all that candy she earned with scaring trick-and-treaters off, she still gets a heap of pity candy! Not fair!

I think pity candy tastes better than sulk-candy. I sure hope she shares with Petey and Andre.

Hey Petey, better than rocks. Count your blessings young man! (Watched The Great Pumpkin Special last night with my boy, for the record he got no rocks while trick or treating afterwards, he checked after each house.)

I wouldn’t care what kind of candy it was as long as it was something I liked. No apples please.

Oh, man! I REMEMBER those dang rubber bands doing that! I read that panel and immediately remembered that nasty little snap.

Just an update: I took action today with the appropriate persons. Now we will see if anything happens with the spam.

Even a hungry preschooler knows to be disgusted by pity candy. (But she’ll eat it anyway. ^^)
