must be the dim reaper

Grim Reaper: What?

Debbie: How can we all have died at the same time?

Grim Reaper: [pointing] The salmon mousse!

Live wrong is better than dead wrong.

So THIS is how you….CHEAT DEATH! ;D

And Bleeb stays camouflaged.

All right, I´ll be seeing you in Samarra.

Talk about job satisfaction!

Sorry sir but in a public service job I don’t get paid to think. This is the address on the paperwork so you can tell it to the judge.

Is he though, Bill? Is he?

Same difference. He’ll be back.

You hope!

Hi, Bleeb.

Wow rent is that overdue?

Same rug? Must have cats!

Unfortunately the lazy substitute death thought, “oh well, close enough”, and reaped him anyway.

Funny

nice try Willy, you can’t fool the reaper

You know, he’ll only come back when he realizes you’re trying to elude the inevitable. D@m-it- to- Hell!

He can read minds…

Shouldn’t he have seen this coming? He lives in forsee.

Blue Oyster Cult. Don’t fool the reaper……

Never cheat death. It pisssses him off.

So, Moscow Mitch found his post-retirement gig!

Death can’t C what’s going on.

New guy. That’s why he’s carrying a training scythe. Hiya Bleeb! :)

Not for long though…..

unseen word balloon: “This guy thinks it’s my first reaping.”

You Will pay for this.

Death must have worked at Starbucks when he was a teenager.

The wife (not seeing it’s Death at the door): “Bill, honey, why are you saying your name is Wilhelm? Bill, Bill?”

Happens all the time with the common names like Smith, Jones, Clongbort, etc.
