Strange Brew by John Deering for September 07, 2024

Like this extinct flying reptile, the English language is light years from being “letter” perfect.

The “P” is silent??? How ….. quaint!!!

;-)

The PTER in PTERodactyl is the same as in helicoPTER.

Thought you might want to know.

No, it wasn’t. You’re cleaning that up, Terry.

Like in phooey?

My “p” is silent. Unless I’m “p-ing” into a puddle. Then it will make a noise.

Turn left at Greenland.

The representative symbol of a certain backward-looking political party?

Then stop spelling it with a p. Problem solved.

How do you know when a pterodactyl is in the toilet? You don’t – the p is silent.

Like in “swimming”

“It’s ‘Django’ – the ‘D’ is silent”

I have a very hard to pronounce name. All the letters are silent.

No kidding! I think a cocktail is in order….And don’t worry it won’t go on your bill!

whoa… I’d take a step back if I were her!

Hilarious, John!

and I love your other toon today on the high cost of childcare! I remember when tfg was inaugurated in 2017, I posted The Toddler’s Creed to highlight who would be running the country for the next four years…

The Toddler’s Creed

If I want it, it’s mine.

If I give it to you and change my mind later, it’s mine.

If I can take it away from you, it’s mine.

If I had it a little while ago, it’s mine.

If it’s mine, it will never belong to anyone else, no matter what.

If we are building something together, all the pieces are mine.

If it looks just like mine, it is mine.

My sister once dated a guy who refused to believe that pterodactyl started with the letter P. Man, was he pstupid!

After a few drinks, the “pee” will not be silent.

Ok, “pterodactyl”, the P is silent and…?

The whole thing has been silent for more than 100 million years.

Reminds me of an episode of “Golden Girls” in which the girls are talking to a funeral director named Pfeiffer. The ‘p’ in ‘Pfeiffer’ wasn’t silent!
