Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for July 20, 2023

And this is the moment that makes the arc for me.

Sorry Petey, but this is too funny.

Poor Petey. More trauma.

Pop oughta take charge, get control of his kids, say Grace and move on.

So this is one of those carnivorous plants.

Poor Petey…his oppression upset the flower.

Facehugger Flower. “Game over, man!”

One of my all time favorites because I was Petey as a child and my 3 yr older brother embodied Alice.

Aaaaacckk!

Ask and ye shall receive….

This was and is such an amazing comic strip.

The famous but rare Wilt Chamberlain flower.

Right out of Alien. Love it!

Don’t get any of it in your mouth, Petey, it’ll affect your Picky Eater Rating! ☺

Thistle be the end of Pete

Audrey? Alice brought in Audrey?

Sisters! : )

This is why triffid farming should be left to professionals.

Alice, we know you’re bored, but don’t be mean.

My Hero is down and his beloved Little Sis is supporting the Monster-plant-Triffid-Thing From the Backyard?! SHAME, Alice, shame on you!

Somebody get that thing off his face before it does him irreparable harm!

On a hot day like today, I identify with the flower… “WILT”

Help. Help. I’m being oppressed.
