The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for June 27, 2011

Vivian can’t help it, Frank…

No squares in that household!

Love the little girl triangle.

Okay, D-Frog. Take over on this one.

Watch out. It might be a trapezoid.

But the baby’s a cute one.

It’s all geometric to me.

They’re very plane, I need some solid evidence.

In her defense, she does get right to the point of her argument.

After divorcing the nagging Vivian, Frank Euclid got inspiration from circling around Dorothy Square and his career took off geometrically.

@bargrove – A little late and so many good ones this morning it’s hard to get a good angle on it. I may be off on a tangent, but I’m betting the Dad is off to go watch Sine-feld.

@Radish – Trying to suggest there may be a classic love triangle going on here?

Anyone remember Tom Lehrer’s ‘Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky’? ‘Metro-Goldwyn-Moskva buys movie rights for six million rubles, Changing title to ’The Eternal Triangle’, With Doris Day playing part of hypotenuse.’

Vivian’s always got the right angle.

ya know what they say, “A squared + B squared” and all that.

Love the little girl’s dolls!

I think she’s kinda acute

poor thing has a skin rash. she must be scalene

I sure do prrdh. That album was released when I was about 13. Also, he doesn’t have a hypotenuse, but she does. Of course she’s always right, because the husband is always wrong.

But obtuses don’t have any hypotenuses

Awwwwwww, Now how cute is that?

The little pink triangle having a tea party.

She really is ACUTE character.

xxxxxxxxxx

Who’s the square in the family photo?

Their lack of congruence does not bode well.

Very original!

Love Triangle? Not anymore

Triangle Humor. Love it XD

You have to triangulate to understand this comic . . .

You’re lucky Edwin Abbott’s work is in the public domain!

I foresee a protractored argument.

Sorry Scott — being obtuse, he has no hypotenuse to bite.

No real reason for Frank to get bent out out of shape!!

Well there’s enough blame to go around equilaterally.

Who knew there could be humour in geometry ? I can see Euclid and Pythagoras giving hi-fives to each other !!! This is the ‘right angle’ to look at geometry !

Ah, there she goes again… off on another tangent.
