Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for August 14, 2012

If the female mantis takes off the male’s head,it’s been eaten. Not sliced off and dropped.

And she’s the one probably updating her status…and phoning in a personal ad…“Single lady mantis…. recent widow, slender, voracious…. I mean, vivacious…”

He’s probably writing “I think the relationship with the Missus reached a new level. She just tried to eat me.”

She makes that move while he’s still basking in the moment….or taking the usual post-whoopee nap.

Go a-head, make that call.

Severed all contact with her.

Not the first guy to lose his head over a pretty girl.

sad part is, he’s still head under heals in love with her.

The posts here are just as good as the cartoon. Thanks, guys!

Nature can be cruel and one loses his head in love sometimes.

Decided to sit on my hands ’til someone explained it. Thanks Randy! My own dumb fault for being too lazy [I mean BUSY] to Google it.

DUE TO THE SINGLEMINDEDNESS
