Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 14, 2023

I see Petey as more of a misrouted package.

I thought he was trying to be a…. boxer.

Too subtle, no one will get it.

to this day I still have no idea what petey means :]

More like a round peg in a square hole.

Woman: “Why does this dummy have a bucket on its head?”Kramer: “Because we’re blind to their tyranny.”Woman: “Then shouldn’t you be wearing the bucket?”Kramer: “Yeah. Move along, Betty.”

Don’t let them grind off your corners, Petey! Illegitimi non carborundum.

That works just as well Peter.

“Ooo, look Dabney, he’s thinking inside the box! Isn’t he cute?”

“What? No! … I’m going home…”

What does Perry know about the consumer culture? He barely consumes anything.

Oh no no no, Petey, we don’t do subtle around here. A club to the head and spikes in the eyes are the only answers.

Father is actually correct.

Great artists are never understood.

Thompson was the consummate cartoonist!

I’d use a bigger box if I were you…like one for a fridge…

Quiet, Mom, it’s less work for you.

Petey, My Hero, sees things a little differently from you Normal People, Madeline and Peter.

But, alas, harsh reality may challenge his vision!

Credit Petey for thinking outside the box. Or trying to.

The ultimate housecat toy. I brought two boxes home from Aldi, and the cat tried both of them on immediately. I think it must give them the feeling of being enthroned or on display.

Peter – art often can be seen from different angles.
