yeah, like Alice’s grandmother throwing boiled eggs

Are chewy wads a real thing?

Prize for morning’s best cartoon panel: Nara’s and Alice’s expressions in the second panel. But Nara’s is perfect from start to finish.

If she does, does she throw them before or after they’ve been chewed?

In bulk, they can be used as speed bumps.

Nara gave fair warning. UNGH x5, etc.!

Now (shades of Grandma!), throw at traffic!

—Such cool fun!
