Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 02, 2024

You don’t work, you don’t eat.

And we don’t have a balloon, so blowing hot air doesn’t count as working.

Well, since she’s the only one not making any effort toward rescue, that would be her.

Another maritime law fun fact: All life rafts should be equipped with a bull horn.

Is he delivering an annoying sermon?

The new law of the land in the USA if spur heels wins! And evil will win!

He thinks that he is the coxswain.

Oh, would that it were true!!

Let’s see if he takes the hint.

If she bonks him on the head hard enough to incapacitate him, can they invoke the 25th Amendment? As a last resort, may he be the first to be eaten?

If this comic is a metaphor for our ship of state, then…

I am with her.

You mean, like the person quoting Maritime Law?

In the days of sail, rather than starve, survivors would “draw straws” and eat the loser.

For some of us, that would be anyone using the phrase “fun fact”.

That’s not all that passive, definitely aggressive.

Tallulah Bankhead?

A coxswain is only used for rowing but they be paddling. And what’s holding up that pole?

Even in international waters, such crimes are punishable by the “flag” country of the vessel or by any country claiming a connection to the crime. So, let the law handle the most annoying (and murderers).

He’s having a stroke…stroke…stroke!

And she’s the most annoying.

The most annoying is you, Miller. I have said this many times, there are no periods in SOS. SOS doesn’t stand for anything. It doesn’t mean “save our souls” or “save our ship” or any such rot. SOS is an international distress call and this may come as a surprise to you, but not everyone in the world speaks English. The first country to use SOS was Germany, but SOS doesn’t work in German, it would be RUS and the French would be sending SNN, so much for an international distress call. My gosh, don’t those idiots know how to speak English? SOS was adopted long before there was voice radio communications at all, just radio telegraphy. SOS was adopted because it is quickly recognized in Morse code, 3 dots 3 dashes 3 dots. Check out the movie “A Night to Remember”, the Morse actually legitimate. Look up SOS in Wikipedia.

Psychology Today has a good article on passive-aggression.

I’ve always been honest with myself. Two of us are stranded somewhere, plane crash in the Andes, Castaway. You would be wise not to fall asleep. Just saying.

Throw every annoying Democrat overboard.

Who decided who is the most annoying?

Which one is Alfred Hitchcock?
