Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 28, 2011
Transcript:
Mom: These pants should fit. Try them on. Petey: They're too beige. Mom: You look good in beige! It makes your face more distinct. Alice? Where are you? Alice: Over here. Mom: Stay there. Petey's trying on some pants. Alice: Look at all the cute Alices! Your hair's sticking up all over. Your nose is weird. It's pincy-looking. MOMMY! Are those pants even a color? They make your face stick out. Petey: Everybody hates the pants. Mom: Try these, they're ecru. Alice, what? Alice: Say my nose is cute.

It’s bad enough when Alice’s reflections turn on her; when Alice’s reflections hang around to taunt Petey when he’s in front of the mirror, that’s just downright creepy! Yarrrgh!

Upon further reflection, that should be th*r*ough the looking glass Alice… in a shade of light greyish-yellowish brown.

Is Petey a vampire? Try a lighter shade of beige.

Store mirrors are evil. They say you ladies look great with a dress, but when you get home you feel like Cathy!

I am not sure Petey wants his face to be more distinct.

Alice is too young (and cute) to hear the “truth” that those mirrors were peddling.

I saw Loris Slothrup in church today! She was serving mass this morning, and had got there so speedily that she was about 3 or 4 years older than in the strip, but the hair, the eyes: it was definitely her, I tell you!
