Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 01, 2009
Transcript:
Alice: Is it still adult swim? There aren't any adults in the pool. Mom: There's a lady in it. Alice: But she's way over there! And she's just standing in the pool, not swimming. Mom:So? Mom: There, she flapped her arms a little. Alice: That's nothing! She's making a hollow mockery of Adult Swim!

Mom, get back in the water and save the reputation of Adult Swim.

The standards for Adult Swim have really gone down lately.
I blame Cartoon Network.

Mom, how come that lady gets jaccuzzi bubbles in the big pool?

I have to say that Cul de Sac is in my top ten favorite comic strip list right under Calvin and Hobbes. Thank you, Richard!

srolfs, I agree. I just love Calvin and Hobbes and Cul de Sac too!

Ah yes adult swims, detested as a child and cherished as an adult.

Don’t knock it, Alice. If it wasn’t for those pesky adults, the pool would be full of little floating bodies.

Love that look on Alice’s face in the third panel. Maybe I can use that…….

Alice’s expression in the third panel is indeed priceless! This strip has definitely joined the ranks of “favorite comics” for me; it’s like the Peanuts of a new generation. :)

Just think, Alice. In about 20 years, all this will be yours to swim in or not, as you see fit.
