Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for May 23, 2023

Is the kid named Seymour?

That’s a big chompin’ flower!

Feed me! Seymour!

The Little Lawn of Horrors? “Beware of Plant”

“Watch Your Step: It may be your last.” … “Step an inch – lose a foot.”

Where can I get one of those to take care of the dogs that people let go on my front lawn?

Hmm…he got booted.

“Watch this!”

I don’t think that he knew what his friend was about to see.

It is possible that the kid cannot read.

I guess you should wait for Mary Jane to come by and hash out any problems you have with the grass.

Reminds me of Dune except these aren’t giant sand worms with big mouths but giant grass worms!

If only he could throw fireballs.

Leaf it alone, I told you…

“Signs, signs, everywhere ther are signs…”

Stand Back

Stand Back

What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet?

They’re on to something, picking up, picking up this heat!

He just had to " try it " didn’t he ?

Hold my beer.

“Watch this”. Also known as “Hold my beer”.

The Wizard put up the sign for THEIR sakes. How considerate.

Audrey the guard-plant.

Signs are important, ya know.

The sign is there for a reason.

See, this is how the 10 percenters keep the rest of us entertained. Hold my beer and let me show you how this is done. I’m well up in the 11 percent range.

I went to visit my dad at the VA. While walking across the campus I saw a really unique tree and went to look closer at it. I still didn’t know what kind of tree it was, but saw a brass plaque on the far side from where I was standing.Was it a sign recognizing someone or something kind of memorial tree? Nope! The sign read: “Keep off the grass!”Never did find out what kind of tree it was.

That’s one kid who needs to be turned into yard grass. Yip yip yip yip yip

That reminds me, I have a dentist appointment tomorrow.

I saw it, I just didn’t believe it.

Never a good idea to try the patience of a wizard…

Never challenge the Wiz

Feeeeed me!!!

Lesson learned…..

Did he know that would happen, and was showing his friend, or was he just being a punk?

Can’t read – - -

Wish I has something for those that go down our private road ….. right by 2 No Trespassing signs, on each side of the entrance so can’t be missed, by anyone with their eyes open …… and a couple of private road signs …….. When they come back out (dead end road) and if they stop, I ask them “Didn’t you see the signs” ……. most answer “What signs” …… :(

I SAID Get Off My Lawn!

King Bowser Koopa called, he wants his Piranha Plant back.

Little Lawn of Horrors!

I have noticed the comments are a wide range. Everything from “Hold my beer”, to Audrey II", and a few deciduous puns. So I feel out of the percentage when I think of Granny Weatherwax. Whereas… Granny didn’t weed her garden as much as evict the magical plants who would wander in and take root.

Mmm yeah track may not be in your future anymore, kid

He borrowed that one from the Mario Brothers.

The best rules enforce themselves.

Did he lose his leg? Only one leg showing after the chomp.

I was in a couple of stage productions of Little Shop. There was a place where you could rent Audrey II. There were actually four Audrey II’s. One was just a small potted plant. The second had to be held with two arms and was actually an ingenious hand puppet. The third was half the size of a Volkswagen and contained one puppeteer. The fourth was almost the size of a small house and required several people to operate. I was part of the fourth plant’s digestive/excretory system and helped the people it ate out the “back”.

Audrey III?

That’s ok, if he plants his foot, it’ll grow another foot…

Wiz, where can we get some of those?!?

Wiz must be in league with Bowser!

If only my wife could find such a plant at Home Depot, I would personally take charge of caring for it!
