Jason: Want to see me juggle these hard-boiled Easter eggs? Andy: I'd rather you didn't. I can use them for egg salad sandwiches, but not if you drop them all over the kitchen floor. Jason: What makes you assume I'll drop them? How about showing a little confidence in my abilities?! How about having a little faith in your son?! You just automatically assume I'm a klutz! You just automatically assume I'll mess up! Maybe I've been practicing! Maybe I'll surprise you! But nooooo...you don't even want to find out! Andy: You have chocolate eggs in your basket, why not just juggle those? Jason: And risk dropping them? No way.

Chocolate eggs are far more fragile than the hard boiled yellow egg that is why…

Potential cost = risk times value, and I assume he assesses a negative value to the hard boiled variety…

All the Overdunne (Another comic I know) dialogue takes me right to ‘Peanuts.’ Schultz did that a lot. All that buildup for a familiar joke. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy the funnies to see how cute they do the jokes.

Someday I want to get a bunny with it’s ears still on.
McGehee over 13 years ago
Maybe she should make tofu eggs for juggling.

Lewreader, check out Sally Forth on DailyInk.com. For the first time in her life, the daughter Hillary got a chocolate bunny with the ears still intact.

Comicnut, try seattletimes.nwsource.com. Jan: I don’t think this is over yet, Sally doesn’t have that much will power.
kraftjeff over 13 years ago
Wow history is made… Sally doesn’t eat the bunnies ears…. and the kid rants because tradition is tradition is tradition.

Sally Forth is also on comics.com Jason doesn’t have faith in himself because he hasn’t been practicing.

The true issue is that Jason does NOT want egg salad sandwiches.
AKHenderson - Yeah, why didn’t Andy hide round pieces of eggplant instead of easter eggs? I would have egg-spected that from her.
:-D

This may be a “familiar joke”, but it caught me totally off guard. So there. Nyahh.

Good one, Jason. That’s how I would’ve handled it.
