Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for June 30, 2024

at least he not wearing a top hat and monocle like Mr Peanut

Just a cornball.

They’re just nuts.

He doesn’t have an extra coat like you, cashews and almonds.

Nice hat.

I recognize Acorn, Brazil, Pistachio, Peanut, Almond, Walnut, Filbert, Unknown, Chestnut. Who’s that second from the left?

Acorn looks dapper, but he’s inedible. Bitter.

Eh? Me not get.

Well you is all nuts anyways.

Not tell me they is dreenks coconut water.

This horror movies is really pick up pace when The Nutcracker is arrives to party.

lmao

I don’t understand this ‘oak’

Just back from France with a souvenir beret.

This is just nuts. There’s probably acorny joke to be made here but I’l have to cashew you later.

But is an acorn really considered a nut? If not, then he’s a spy and must be delt with accordingly!

An acorn?

Mister Pretentious? That must mean it’s Filbert.

I thought at first it was Hazel-nut

When one of them says “Cashew!”, do the others say “Gesundheit!” ?

Not just any old nut, but still not one of the much-vaunted Macadamias. Or is that what is on the lower part of the frame?

Are there two peanuts at the party? If so, why is the shelled one as tall as the unshelled one (who’s a double)? If not, that what IS the tall tan one? (the only other nut I can think of that could look like that is certain other acorns, and then there are two again). He’s too skinny for a macadamia*.

Actually, he’s the only shelled one there, is he streaking?

Plus, fairly few people would know what a macadamia in the shell would look like. Ditto a cashew (which is probably why he isn’t there.)

this is acorn-y comic

The Dutch word for acorn is litteraly ‘dic_head’ :)

Dropped his beret in the cow pasture. Tried on three before he found his own.

The most pretentious nut is a member of the macadamia academia.

I’m waiting for the avocado to try to crash the party.

Clothing optional.

There were a pair of nuts here earlier, that got tired of hanging around.

Not a sane one in the bunch. They’re all nuts.
