Scary Gary by Mark Buford for January 04, 2022

HAHAHAHAHA!!

Milk is plant based.

Any Dead Milkmen Fans here?

Wendel brought it to life in his guest room bath tub

It was a special project for his 4-H club

But it broke loose out in the middle of the night

And now it’s eatin’ flower children left and right

All the punks are gonna scream yippee

Cause it’s the thing that only eats hippies

First it cruised on out to Malibu

And ate a couple a’ surfers

Who where too tough to chew

So it slithered it’s wayOut to old Irvine

And ate a couple a’ hippies

And they tasted just fine

Now its got a sweet tooth for long hair

So Bob and Greg and Grant you should beware

Followin’ the Dead is how it gets it’s kicks

Shame it wasn’t born in 1966

Listens to the music and begins to sway

Dreamin’ acid dreams of a hippie soufflé

Hey hey hey

What do they taste like -

Some kind a’ treat?

How many hippies can this monster eat?

It ate Stills and Nash before they could shout

And then it chewed on David Crosby

But it spit him out

All the punks are gonna scream yippee

Cause it’s the thing that only eats hippies

There it goes

Gonna send ’em all to that big Folk Festival in the sky

So long suckers!

Even Leo’s mug finds it objectionable.

That was no hippie, that was celery. Well, okay, same thing.

Leo is hilarious

I hear hippies are also high in fiber.

Ew!

Those things contain strange chemicals.

Leopold doesn’t eat clowns he says they taste funny.

More than once I’ve mentioned both to Mark (on his FB page) and his syndi’s merching rep that I’d happily buy a mug like that. Ideally, it would be one of those trick heat-sensitive ones so the skull’s eyes would change with temperature.

Leo is saying that meat eaters taste better! But what about all the people that eat corn fed beef?

Haha! Great strip.

Salubrious!

Some tastes are hard to get out of your mouth.

Oh, Gary! You poor, deluded creature! That stuff is NOT making your coffee healthier. It’s not going to make you healthier, either. It’s not natural!

Oh, wait. You’re not natural, either, are you?

Reminds me of a “Far Side” cartoon where two disgusted lions realize they have downed a tofuolope.

That’s taking your Reformism a step too far, Gary! Be watching your six!
