Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for October 31, 2023

Yes. We see.

Alice knows what she is doing. Not nice but still well played.

I used to like the icing better when I was a kid. I would eat the icing off the top first because I liked it best. But as I got older, I learned to save best for last and came to like the cake better. Unless it’s one of my mousse topping cakes.

There’s a joke about how at a military school, the tradition was that an upper classman always sat with a table of plebes at dinner. The tradition also held that when the dessert tray came, it was given to the upper classman and he immediately passed it to the plebe next to him and ended up taking the last dessert.

At one table, when the upper classman received the dessert tray, he would stick his thumb into the largest one and declare, “That one is mine!” One day, the plebes decided to teach him a lesson. So when the dessert tray came, the upper classman stuck his thumb in the largest dessert and declared, “That one is mine!”, and passed it the plebe next to him. That plebe stuck his thumb into the same dessert and declared, “That one is his!”, and took a different dessert. This repeated all the way around the table.

If Alice ever met Nancy, would the universe cease to exist?

You know Dill will still eat his cupcake.

Icinging in the Frame

Icinging don’t complain

What a glorpious feeling

I’m napping again

With Blisshaven friends

Icinging, Icinging in the Frame

the best thing about this is the sound effects! BLUP

Oh Boy! Pat Pat. Spread Spread. BLOP. Too late! Accidentally! See! BLUP!

In our household, we don’t mind “mistakes,” it’s just a good excuse to make more ;)

I’ve got a better idea, Madeline. NO cupcake(s) for Alice! And that includes the icing!
