Mother Goose and Grimm by Mike Peters for January 03, 2024

In the prime of his life.

Even when talking to a baby, talking baby talk isn’t so much for the baby’s benefit, it’s for the “adults” using it.

I thought at first that Mother Goose might be inebriated.

Tried to figure out my age in dog years and it left me wanting to go back to bed.

He does not look a day over 350 years!

Yeah, Mom! But I do the same to my dog, and she’s 35 human years!

I would have thought Grimm was older than that in human years.

If Calvin tried to use dog years as an excuse for his age under the claims that he doesn’t need to go to school, his parents still won’t believe him in that regard.

At least he will be in October

Grim just doesn’t seem like the kind of dog you’d use baby talk on. And actually, while I do modulate my voice, I don’t use that kind of talk with my kitty at all. “Is him awake?” What kind of grammar IS that?!

Everyone knows dogs only understand baby talk!

You mean I’m STILL older than him?!?!?!?

Haha! (＾▽＾)
