The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for June 30, 2021

Neat beanie!

Department of Silly Hats….

He’s the Director of Fecal Research – a man who knows his…. stuff.

Scat! Get out of here!

He reminds me of Waldo!!

Kinda’ looked like Waldo poop to me Cedric. Where is he anyway?

Looks like poop, smells like poop, tastes like poop, good thing I did not step on it!

Great. Then hand me a spoon.

Almost sprayed my coffee across the room…..LMAO!

A nerd experiment! Love the propeller hat and suspenders….

if he keeps listening to that crap he’ll be up schitt’s creek…

He does look like Waldo, and, they all look a little nerdy to me!

Where’s Nincom?

Don’t worry, it’s completely fool-poop.

After four years of a boobocracy.

Hi Beanie, where’s Cecil?

Scatologist

Oh, poopie.

Do nincoms poop in the forest?

Where’s Dildo?

Yup just as I thought, a take a knee “JERK” response.

So it is Nincomscat?

Shazbutt! He’s an old friend of Mork.

The young couple on their honeymoon were about to spend the week camping in Yellowstone, but first they had to listen to the ranger’s orientation speech. He was particularly emphatic about bears. “They’re a protected species, so we’ve got lots of them, but they’re still dangerous. Don’t approach them under any circumstances. And don’t try to outrun them; they’re faster than you are. And climbing a tree won’t help, either; they’re better at it than you.”

The nervous groom asked what they could do about it.

“Well, some people stop by the gift shop and pick up wristlets or anklets with little bells. Sometimes if they hear you coming, they’ll move off before you get there. You can also get cans of pepper spray in case you surprise one. Oh, and be on the lookout for fresh bear scat; that’s a sign that they’re around and you might want to leave.”

“What’s scat?” asked the bride.

“Bear droppings. You can tell what kind of bear it is by what their poop looks like. The smaller ones, black bears, have scat that’s kind of firm and roundish, like dark ping-pong balls. The really dangerous guys, the big grizzlies, have softer, flatter, lighter-colored droppings, kind of like cowpies, except they usually have little bells and smell like pepper.”

Unless they’re in charge of you’re state government…

“Did I do that?” Steve Urkel

I see this comic in our paper every day in black and white. Today’s looks much worse without color because all the different shades of color that we see here are all one shade in the paper. “Nincom” almost disappears.

When I visited Glacier National Park several years ago I learned from the rangers that they can track the roaming habits of individual bears using the DNA in their scat and the fur they gather from barbed wire. The wire is nailed to trees at “rubbing height” to catch bits of fur.

I knew an inept US Army sergeant. A regular non-compoop.

Just don’t invite one to a party.

What?! No matter what you call them, all idiots are highly dangerous — to themselves and all the surrounding area! Idiots don’t follow safety rules!

Waldo-poop?

Now this one is funny.

So glad I stopped just before this to make a sandwich.

When confronted by a nincom, you can usually just tell it to “scat” and it will go away.
