Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for August 26, 2019

Dumb and Dumbererererer…

Right? The cartoonist doesn’t even DRAW you when you’re invisible! You’re a horrible visiblist, Tim!

Your enemies will insult you behind your back. Your friends will insult you in your face.

I understand your anger, Brewster. Motion-detecting faucets and towel dispensers in public restrooms often act like I’m invisible.

If only I was invisible. I could steal more picanic baskets with ease.

He was conspicuous by his absence.

We’re all here because we aren’t all there.

Ralph Ellison would probably agree.

A little man who wasn’t thereHe wasn’t there again todayOh, how I wish he’d go away"

Being invisible at work would have its advantages, though. I could actually get stuff done without being interrupted 20 times a day!

When Wayne was a character on Canadian TV before appearing on Saturday Night Live, he would read editorials that always ended, “I blame society.”

It’s like you’re a see-cond-class see-tizen…

If I were invisible, I’d …

I once read a short story about the downsides of being invisible. Having to watch for cars because they can’t see you. Strangers slamming into you on sidewalks because they don’t know to sidestep and avoid you. And in the cases where only your skin turns invisible rather than clothing, there’s those winters. The “girls shower room” scenario got old and boring really fast. And eating was disgusting because he could see the food until it was fully digested. Bleh.

Another wrote on the disadvantages of invulnerability. Imagine being invulnerable, but without super strength and getting trapped under a collapsed building or land slide for decades… or getting put in prison and sitting there until humankind dies off and the walls literally corrode around you.

Yeah being a super hero isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. And apparently if you’re a female super hero evidently the requisite costume is a bikini.

Stan dude, you were a perv. Not speaking ill of the dead, just making a point. At least the X-Men movies gave them believable body armor. And Superman, really guy, your fashion choice was seriously goofy.

This commentary brought to you by Dwagons LLC. Taking it seriously is strong indication of mental aberration. See your mental health practitioner immediately.

Heavy topic today.

I’m glad I wasn’t there at the point it wore off.

It’s easy to be invisible, just turn 40…

People who aren’t There are Gossiped about. They Talk about you wheh you are gone.

People used to treat my little ’66 Dodge Dart like it was invisible.

Nowadays they mainly just ignore motorcyclists and pedestrians
