Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 14, 2024

Borrowed from Zits.

Borrowed from the reality of many families.

Lucy is her Hobbs.

There are a few things that need doing around my place, when she’s got a moment …

The bottom layers might have compacted into sedimentary rock … a pick is needed.

They might not originally have been (started out as) load-bearing, but …

… Warning: Handle/Dismantle with care.

OMG

Oh my, I think someone should have been made to clean her room a LOOOOONG time ago!

Whoa! Not so fast! Someone needs to file an environmental impact statement. Who knows what has been living in the mess and possible discoveries that may help mankind. May be time for an archeological dig.

Kind of negates the old line that she thinks if she keeps digging she’ll find a pony in there somewhere because she already has one.

crazy random frame happenstance? 1) shovel, 2) horse

“Load-bearing laundry” is going to take more than a shovel.

Danae would give Hercule Poirot furiously to think—and a heart attack!

Maybe she can appear on the TV show “Hoarders”, and they can pay for a company to come to the house and clear out all that trash. She’s always wanted to be famous, now here’s her chance.

Nothing on the bottom of that pile except for road apples

Well, Danae wanted an adventure. Who knows what she’ll find amongst all that detritus- a wormhole, a long lost friend, a clue?…

Maybe she can have it declared an ecosystem that needs preservation.

Danae, ever the pragmatist !

It’s a wonder her room isn’t crawling with vermin.
