Monty by Jim Meddick for November 23, 2023

Okay; in the fourth panel, what happened to the knife? Who’d he stick with it? (assuming a loss of patience)

Monty’s wandered into “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving”, where all the other adults let their trombones speak for them!

I just noticed that his nose is heart-shaped.

My back is going to be extra hurt-ie today. I’m bringing enough extra pain meds so I’ll become comfortably numb or everyone else will. :) Earbuds too, I must remember my earbuds.

F’m all Monty.

It looks like he’s giving someone the bird in the last panel.

Monty, two words for ya, “noise cancelling earbuds”.

Happy Thanksgiving to Monty, thank you for remembering!

My mother, a zealous political partisan, and my paternal grandfather, an equally zealous partisan on the other side, used to enjoy baiting each other briefly in joint family get-togethers. But they kept their banter short, and non-toxic; an art that’s been lost on the current national scene.

The only time I’ve ever seen someone hold their knife and fork like Monty is doing is in a cartoon or comic. No one does that in real life.

Thanksgiving him a hard time.

I want what he’s been smoking! :)

Focus, O Mind-Blocking Monty! You must screen out 100% of the insults to be a full Thanksgiving Dinner success!

Once in a while, you are expected to say something, like “How about those Rams?”.

Good to see that all the hard training is working.
