The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 10, 2023

As just as most of us.

Just a sardine in a flat can.

I’m guessing you chose to be a big fish, but things turned out differently.

Don’t be koi.

My pond dried up. ;-(

If you have to be the small fish in the big pond and still want to throw your weight around – ask if it is possible you could be the piranha.

But the question is Brutus, are you happy being a small fish in a small pond? Besides, small fish in big ponds get devoured by big fish and big fish in small ponds are caught and filleted…

Better than a small fry Brutus!

There’s something fishy about today’s toon.

Well, Brutus, being small in small isn’t so bad. I was a small fish in a small pond, too. Being in the UMPH family, though a small corporation, was a good and caring company to work for. Although Brutus’ chance for advancement is low, his chance for dismissal is low, too.

Minnow, in a large school. Swimming into the mouth of a very large fish.

Blessed are the humble, for they shall inherit the Earth.

It happens.

at least you get to swim wherever you want in the pond. :D

But you made it work Brutus .

Shark!

Brutus, you are actually just a gold fish in a small bowl in a kids bedroom.

Brutus tells it like it is……

I’ve been both. Big fish in a small pond is better.

Actually, he turned out to be bait fish.

nothing wrong with that either

That’s OK, Brutus…we love you no matter what pond you are in.

Don’t sell yourself short. Where it really counts, you are a big man among some very small fish…..

The fourth alternative is the best, be the big fish in a big pond.

Maybe metaphorically speaking, but not so small.

Just hope your pond, whatever size, doesn’t dry up.

Wilberforce gives Brutus a blinding flash of the obvious – C. None of the above

Philosophy for Life: Thrive wherever you may be…

i turned out to be a small fish across the pond…

Just stay away from loan sharks.

You’re a big fish to us, Brutus.

He’s small fry.
