That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for January 13, 2023

Frau Ryff had a her version of a stove top hat.

Pigeon poop protector.

She’s actually a superhero: the Judger, and her superpower is Disapproving of villains until they collapse in shame.

If thee looks at me like that one more time I willst put this book where the sun dasn’t shine.

/// Dorothea dressed for her audition

to assist Cologne’s greatest magician.

He put down his top hat

which collapsed when she sat.

(Very bad for the rabbit’s condition.)

/// The magician was, shall we say, miffed.

Dorothea’s dismissal was swift.

Though his manner was brisk,

the crushed hat, (now a disk),

was presented to her as a gift.

Does my nose make my hat look too small?

My eyes are down here…….

Sun visor, my foot!

Who died?

Both a fashion choice and frisbee for after hours play time

It was a left in a laundromat/

And she’s wearing it now as a hat/

But this simple device/

Can cook Spanish Rice/

In seventy seconds flat !

Definitely not a Nun to be messed with. Just say the wrong thing or even just give her the wrong look and she’ll cut you open with that knife quicker than you can say 3 Hail Marys!

She’s not looking happy today/

For they’re taken her best book away/

And they’ve left her a missal/

Because they think this’ll/

Replace “Fifty Shades of Gray” !

A slight smirk, knowing that the tilt of her hat gives her such a rakish, jaunty air.

Did people thus portrayed have any fun?

The men seem somber, each woman a nun.

Dorothea had children, and that’s a fact;

So her serious pose here might be an act.

What with her spouse had she merrily done?

.

It’s no business of ours, she’d surely retort —

A question like that is not of the sort

“That good people consider as decent,

Just childishly rude as from a pissant.”

But what does that red diary report?

I’ll get you, Heinrich, for making me wear this stupid hat!

I can’t tell if @Call Me Ishmael is posting to other comments, or are stand-alones…

But this simple device/

In seventy seconds flat !

.

Whenever she’s out in a gale/

The weight of it holds down her veil/

Though it’s tattered and patched/

She’s become quite attached/

Don’t ask – it isn’t for sale!

.

She’s not looking happy today/

For they’re taken her best book away/

And they’ve left her a missal/

Because they think this’ll/

.

She’s known as the Lady in Black/

(She conceals a magnificent rack!)/

She’s discreet and refined/

But unfairly maligned:/

For she does her best work on her back ..///

(I know this is getting off track/

But She’s blessed with a certain knack/

The use of which led/

To the death- in her bed/

Of the Bishop – by heart attack..

Solar panel…If I build it they will…

Senior-aged Wonder Woman decided that if some stupid glasses could disguise Superman then a little visor bonnet would suffice for her.

Yikes!

Is she wearing an Oreo?

The health department mandated sneeze guards for the salad bar. Better in concept than in execution.

You all know that look! Guilty as charged!!

In the future, Gertrude would know to give a man playing Frisbee with his dog a wide berth.

She figured that if a bunny could get famous for having pancakes on its head, then so could she.

.

Unfortunately she kept burning the pancakes.

Helga Dramstrung, designer of the Lutheran fascinator.

When you’re an artist with a cool name like Edouard, you get beautiful models. But when you’re name is Bartholomäus, they’re not so good looking.

♪♪♫ AND IT DON’T WORK FOR NOBODY BUT… ♪♪♫ well, for nobody actually…

“So…You up?”

Ha! That’s my GRAMMA! She NEVER had sex!

You, you, call me a sex machine, while I hold the good book – The Canterbury Tales…

Again, a larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3061 (January 13, 2023) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger if you trim what’s after .png from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. First work by this artist used here.

The author posing for her back cover photo of her new book- Fifty Shades of Black and Blue.

It’s true it is a solar panel for a sex machine, and fortunately for us it is the Abstinence model.

Ethel was not amused by this new game of disc golf.

few people know that telly savalas was secretly a drag queen…

She always forgets where she left her frisbee.

I should have worn a bigger ruff thought Mrs. Ryff.

My hairdresser’s gonna pay for this!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Proposed uniform for His Majesty’s Sailorettes.

Hey Gladys, what’s that humming sound?

/// Dorothea ran out of shampoo.

In a while, figured out what to do.

Took her hat from her head;

wore her roomba instead.

(They are both of them missing a screw.)

Flora spends an hour meditating and then proceeds to have wild sex!

Don’t go near a hockey rink!

To Call Me Ishmael: Below this paragraph is a post written by Pickled Pete on Ripley’s Believe It or Not. He had been banned, along with many others, as 2023 began. Several people who comment there have slowly returned, either because their “sentence” came to an end, or because they followed Pete’s advice. We hope to be seeing you back among us very soon. In the meantime, I am enjoying your posts on your Profile Page.

For those interested – I would still be banned if I had not contacted GoComics. Apparently they forgot to schedule me to be reinstated… SO – if you are under suspension, contact them. And I am no wiser! Without an explanation, I have no idea what I should NOT do in the future.

And if you are concerned about their policy of banning people, without notification or explanation, contact them and let them know how you feel about such policy.
