Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for May 19, 2024

Cry-baby

Which any two-year-old can defeat.

Don’t let it trip you up.

Those hills must have seemed really big to these guys!

This must have rattled them.

Just how big is that baby?

Poor Dale.

That’s a lot of dusty trail.

A baby gate? “I spit in your general direction. “

Ah yes, their archenemy.

Poor Hill and Dale. Just baby-trampled.

Grow up, man.

WAAAAAAAAAA!

Shrubery

Watch out! That’s the Gate of the Killer Rabbit!

It’s the uh-oh baby’s palace.

If that worked, they’d “baby gate” the whole border. Walls don’t work. Ask the Chinese.

This might never have happened if they had gifted a Trojan horsie.

Just crawl over it.

I amuses me that the characters I play in video games can slay the mightiest monsters and demons but are completely thwarted by knee-high obstacles.

You REALLY want to make it impenetrable? Fasten it with bra hooks.

Those things can be tough to get through.

…and thus came a swift end to the Children’s Crusade

Just call upon your mighty Labrador mount!

Baby gates for gothic arches was a thing back then.
