It has come to my attention that poster Charlie Farmer has been surreptitiously banned from talking on these pages for what appears to be no apparent reason as he is not one to make the kind of talk worth being shut out for. I am mounting a write in campaign for his release from the Phantom Zone.
If you wish to help send your letters to: moderator@gocomics.com As always, be congenial. I believe Charlie’s dropout to have been done in error.
My letter to the company:
Good day, sir or madam. I hope winter isn’t too harsh to you as it has been here with minus zero temps but at least we have not had power outages.
I am writing you today concerning co poster, Charlie Farmer. He has informed me through emails that he has been blocked from the Comments groups at your institution. I am perplexed at this action as I have never known Charlie to make derogatory remarks to the other posters or to post off color material. He says he has sent two notes to you in the past two weeks or so but has not gotten a response. Regardless, it is my fervent hope that Mr. Farmer can be restored to the ranks of the living, to the groups he participates in before he whittles away to nothing from the deafening silence he is forced to endure as a result of having been banished to the Phantom Zone district of Gocomics. “Praise the company !” Thank you, Mr. Gordon Heavern.
Comedian: It’s so bad that I saw the Pillsbury Dough Boy standing at the exit of the interstate holding a sign reading “Will work as food.” -ba-da-bing-
Audience: /crickets chirping\
Comedian: -muttering to self- I knew I shouldn’t have quit my day job.
Bears a strong resemblance to the Stay Puft Marshmellow Man, except for the hat, should be a sailor’s hat I believe. So, if it is Stay Puft, I would guess he wants a giant toasted marshmallow.
Peter try a proton pack. It’s been proven to work on the Stay Puff guy, so it should work on the Pillsbury Dough Boy. Just remember, don’t cross the stream.
Pillsbury once tried to interfere with Ben&Jerry getting distribution because Pillsbury owned Hagen Dazz. Ben&Jerry started a “What’s the Doughboy Afraid Of?” campaign.
Please join me in remembering a great icon. Veteran Pillsbury spokesperson, The Pillsbury Doughboy, died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a slightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Cap’n Crunch.
The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time friend, Aunt Jemima, delivered the eulogy, describing Doughboy as a man who “never knew how much he was kneaded.”
Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes, an easy mark for anyone who buttered him up. Despite being a little flaky at times, even as a crusty old man, he was still considered a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough, their three children John Dough, Jane Dough, and Dosie Dough. It is rumored the widow also has one in the oven. Also surviving him, his elderly father, Pop Tart.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

I know there’s a certain amount of creative license allowed to comic artists, but I draw the line at the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Build a stone or brick oven, fire it up and throw him in. He’ll puff up a little more and turn a lovely golden brown.
