Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 10, 2009
Transcript:
Mom: You are not going to eat all those cookies - Alice: I know. I'm going to push then through the mail slot for Dill. Mom: What? Why? Alice: Because guess what? It turns out Dill is one of Santa's Little Helpers. Will this guarantee me a favorable rating on your Naughty/Nice report to the Jolly Red One? Dill: A guarantee'll cost you a fried bologna sandwich and half a Boston Cream Pie. But this is a start. Mom: ALICE!

Alice is pretty sharp too – a well-placed bribe can do wonders.

Ah, the simplicty of a youth’s taste bud. I remember eating those fried balogna sandwiches. Now I wouldn’t touch ‘em with a ten foot poll. In fact, I don’t even buy bologna.
I think the price of getting on the nice list is a little high for someone like Alice.

If Dill keeps eating like that he won’t be able to fit his arm through the mail slot.

A guarantee of favorable treatment if fried bologa is given isn’t extortion, it’s bribery.
A guarantee of unfavorable treatment if fried bologna is withheld is extortion.
The United States Code of Fried Bologna Procedure (USCFBP) is clear on the distinction.

Fried balogna is almost as good as fried Spam.

At least I’ve tried them to know they’re gross. But for some, looks are everything, though deceiving they may be.
