Reality Check by Dave Whamond for December 17, 2023

That’s one way to get ahead.

Dark. Very dark.

He ate the rest!

Well, that got dark quick.

Oh deer. So that’s what he had for Christmas dinner eh. But he spare the cherry on top.

Then one dreary Christmas Eve

Santa came to say

“Rudolph, your head with the nose so bright

Will decorate my walls tonight"

Hey! I got venison for Christmas this year.

Oh Santa, how could you! This IS dark. Don’t let young children see this.

Dave, Dave, Dave…..this is a family strip.

Mmmm…. venison!

That was very cruel, Santa.

Santa’s “workshop” looks more like a den or living room.

[But it’s not (so much) a living room for Rudolph.]

Now do one that starts just like this but ends with Rudolph standing by Santa’s chair with a lampshade on his head.

As a night light

So I’m guessing that Dave has lost the Christmas spirit this year?

Santa was around long before vegans became a thing. Took a fair number of rump roasts balanced with cookies to give him that rotund look.

Aaaaaaacckk! This isn’t what Rudolph had in mind…..but evidently Santa did!

Bad Santa!

it went to Rudolph’s head…

Wrong Rudy, Santa. That should be Giuliani.

(I know that some will object that that’s “political”, but I say a pun’s a pun.)

Santa! You beast!!!

Additionally, Santa had rack-of-reindeer for Christmas dinner.

Mean!

Santa needs a reading lamp??

Hilarious. And delicious.

Maybe some LEDs for the nose.

An eight-point…..not bad!

The younger elves are fighting back the deers.

At least set Roudolph to make AMBER Alerts.

That is what comes of trusting a guy who sneaks down chimneys for a living.

Boooooooo

The taxidermist coulda at least given Rudy a smile!

Those antlers look like they are coming out of the front and back of his head.

…another "small business “ victim of Amazon. Go to an INDE bookstore while you can still find one!

He really lights up the room

Kids will love this cartoon! Christmas spirit in all its glory! I hope they make an animated cartoon, instant classic! A Charlie Brown Christmas, my foot!

Heads Santa wins, tails Rudolph loses.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

personnel cuts…

That’s strike 1, Dave …

Reminds me of the comic showing Rudolph relaxing in the chair with 8 heads mounted behind him, and the caption “USED to laugh and call him names.”

…and what’s Santy sippin’ on there?? Looks like Irish Cream of you ask me!
