Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for February 22, 2012
Transcript:
Dad: You lost who in your room? Alice: Mys. Harrison Horse... I can't sleep without her. Or Polyfill. Or... Dad: Is this your Halloween candy from months ago? Alice: Where did you find it? OH - no - this is from 2 years ago... Dad: Well, it was right next to - hey - is that your mother's shoe under your bed next to your pillow? Found it! In you pillow case! Alice: No wonder it was lumpy.
Today’s strip was written by my 9-Y-O daughter (who also voices Alice in the animated shorts)…and she wrote the gag from a real conversation she and I had while looking for a sweater in her room…in reality? The candy was still in the bucket, half eaten AND there was a Christmas gift unopened! She took the original cartoon to her fourth grade class today for show and tell. Signed, a proud papa.
