Theft by mere “seconds”.

Nobody ever suspects the cat.

Yes you better. For one of em was peeping inside yours house yesterday.

Don’t need a security camera if you’ve got a clock!

I don’t know where the time went but it’s obvious where the food did! Even the cat’s obese!

It’s a neighbor dressed as an Amazon delivery person…

Tempus fugit.

If it’s a neighbor… they’re merely “borrowing” it.

And then there’s that song?….“Time keeps on slipping slipping slipping into the future.”

“Hey, you can’t take that! It’s hours!

Maybe your subscription ended??

This strip has just reminded me of the beautiful version of the Leonard Cohn song Who Knows Where the TimGoes by Judy Collins.

♫ You must remember this

A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh

The fundamental things apply

As time goes by ♫

I have a bazillion neighbors with those cameras posting their, “Anyone know this guy!” pictures on Nextdoor Neighbor daily for peeking in their garbage cans or stepping on their lawn and never is there a clear enough picture of the person I should be chasing away to protect my lawn from illegal lawn stepping. I stay awake all night worrying!!!

Time bandits.

You get the same amount of time as everyone else, the same amount that there is.

Time reading this comic is never lost.

“Install a security camera to see if one of the neighbors is stealing it.” The security camera?

Steel yourself against those who would steal your time, such as, Lemon’s political arcs…

Well I’m not the kind to live in the pastThe years run too short and the days too fastThe things you lean on, are the things that don’t lastWell it’s just now and then, my line gets cast into theseTime passagesThere’s something back here that you left behindOh, time passagesBuy me a ticket on the last train home tonightAl Stewart

You have to go outside to find it.

Well… y’know…time flies when you’re havin’ fun!
