Gene, you can’t let the floor tiles define you! Time to leap out of the corner!

Someone should point out to Gene that all he needs to do is turn a few of the arrows so that they …. …. …. point out.

Paraphrasing Pogo: We have pointed to the enemy and he is us.

Gene never had any sense of direction.

But what if Gene wants it all to lead to him?

It doesn’t surprise me.

It all seems so ‘pointed’.

These are Gene’s “Come Hither” arrows, lest his wife, Karma, forgets.

Gene has backed himself into a corner of his own making.

When Gene’s wife returns home from shopping she will pick up those arrows and Gene will be lost and won’t know where to go.

Gene chooses “to be” and now “suffers the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.” He never found much use for Algebra, but applies his High School English lessons every chance he gets.

That’s not what they mean by flow charts.

At least he is not painting.

Gene is one big idiot!

Gene is a true masochist.. It makes his day to put himself in a degrading position, and when Maude comes to jeer at him.. total climax.

He was hoping that the arrows would lead him to the source of all his problems…

Gene has a very high opinion of his fine self.

All roads lead to Gene.

Gene’s one-way arrows got the better of him.
