Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for November 21, 2021

Wait. This tuber is an imposter. It’s missing an appendage. It looks more like my sister.

Panels 4 – 6 are terrific. Without a word, they tell a story over time.

Sometimes these two remind me of a cleaned up Ren & Stimpy.

Want to drive a Vegan crazy? Tell them that a potato is not a vegetable.

The pleasure in Bucky’s eyes in panel 5, infinite.

Oh Satch, when brains don’t match resort to brute force. Pummel him! Haha

I looked it up, potatoes are vegetables !

Satchel forget about Bucky ! ….. Enjoy your moment ;-)

This reminds me of a classic line that the Kingston Trio once used on stage in reference to a particular politician: “We’ve stopped making fun of him because he’s so good at it himself”. Satchel’s grammar in the last panel alone makes him a perfect illustration of self parody.

Gotta love Spudchel

“Satchel may be a potato. but I do believe he is a sweet potato” – to misquote Winston Churchill. Or, as Popeye says: “I yam what I yam.” And Bucky looks like an artist’s model for a still life titled “Insult in Silence”

Potato Dog! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqTNK8nHQ4A

What life is this cat on? He should have run out long ago, but then what would the comic be without him?

Tuber or not tuber, that is digestion.

I feel this strip alone should have won Conley another National Cartoonists Society Award for 2010; (I love you “Dustin” by Steve Kelley and Jeff Parker. :~) ) Of course, it may have needed the whole 11 years of character build-up to be so rich.

Satchel is the epitome of “Love your enemies”.

Both the spud and the dog look like Sontarans.
