Brevity by Dan Thompson for November 20, 2011

You have to look BETWEEN the lines to read the whole story.

@Dogsniff — You mean.. we could avoid these lines if we only knew which wheel was the stupid one?

Look on the bright side = nothing lasts forever.

Die, Guy and Rodd! Die!

Each panel started with two lines. The other line is done, of course I ALWAYS end up in the slow line! If you see me in a line, get in the other one.

There is a book from the ’70s called Dirty Money that had the satire of a planned womb to tomb community. It was laid out in a spiral, so you moved logically from one stage to the next.

You could also view it (from the baby’s point of view) as going from: No control… Control… Some Control… No control. Cycle of Life.

And one day they all decided to go golfing in a thunderstorm…

just be glad this didn’t take all week.

Ain’t it the TRUTH…

Isn’t this a repeat? Or else they did a similar one before.

Reminds me of a song by the Godfathers called “Birth, School, Work, Death”.

Um, why is one of the babies in the first panel black, but they are all white in the next panels?

And what about the girl on the bike (assuming it isn’t a boy with long hair)? There are only men on the golf course…? The red-headed boy is consistent in all panels. Am I reading too much into this or interpreting it the wrong way?

What happened to the black one?

This comic is about the boy with red hair in the yellow shirt. Even the hearse has yellow striped curtains. Beyond that, I don’t get it.
