Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling for June 22, 2023

I remember Steve Martin’s Comedy is Not Pretty album involving a gag where he tells about asking his doctor to give him pain pills. The doctor gives him placebos, which make him “high as a KITE!”

Those kids grew up to be adults who take placebos that make them think better.

It’s a small step from placebos to homeopathy …

Don’t take Placebo if you’re allergic.

Baby aspirin: gateway drug to ’cebo addiction?

Oregano, eh? Hmm… I wonder…

“Mom! Do we have any oregano?”

Banana peels are so much stronger today than the ones we smoked back in the 60s.

I’ve been clear of the ’cebos for 10 years. Now I only drink healthy beer and smoke big blunts 2-3 times a day.

We’ve seen this movie….. Hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin, mainlining Lysol, anal laser injections…. Remember? There were folks yelling and screaming for these placebos as they lay dying of Covid. (Qualifier: Not sure if anyone ever screamed out for Lysol or lasers, but do know that the Orange Guy once threw these out as cures. So, it probably happened, right.)

More Dunning–Kruger-aid for you red-hatted hot-heads?

Switch him to Obecalps./s

“I’m addicted to placebos. I could quit, but it wouldn’t make a difference.”

My doctor prescribed placebos for my hypochondria, but I don’t think they’re working.

No pets for the kid that was " licking a schnauzer".☺️☺️

Even better than hyperventilating and having someone squeeze your chest.

It doesn’t help that, these days, you can buy mushrooms in stores…right next to the olives and pearl onions.

They forgot to smoke banana peels.

If you’re worried your anti-anxiety meds aren’t working — they’re not.

Just say no!

They should try homeopathy to treat placebo addiction

For those who are allergic to all medications visit a placebo hospital for all your homeopathic needs.
