Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for September 28, 2020

Yep, that’s Apple for you; they don’t like any competition…

Next panel: Horace yells at the tree, “Hey, what’s the big idea? I’m asking you because I don’t remember mine.”

kinda like being struck by lightning ;+)

I’m starting to think that tree does not like Horace

So much for that idea.

and it’s back to square one …!

How many Horace’s does it take to change a lightbulb? Neigh a one.

I can identify. With my short-term memory problems, all it takes is a little distraction and I’ve totally forgotten my great idea.

There went THAT idea….

Guess that tree sits within a “no bright ideas” zone.

One of Apple’s bad ideas.

Isaac Newton he is not.

I think Horace needs to move.

So far: Tree 74, Horace 2

He was just about to invent anti-gravity.

Aristotle taught that objects like stones, however inanimate, had agency, and sought (somehow) to be as close as possible to the center of the earth. Given the lasting influence of Aristotle’s thought, someone like Newton had to think outside the box. He didn’t get it quite right, thinking of gravity as a kind of force. I don’t know if he was troubled by the whole idea of forces acting at a distance.

Your comics make me laugh out loud, and few others do. Brilliant! Have you ever thought about doing a collection of just your elevator strips?

Isn’t it amazing how he can conjure up things seemingly from the air? A Houyhnhnm power.

What – no oranges (“Apfelsine” – the former German word for it translates to “Chinese apple”) or pineapples? – Booooring.

You have no idea Horace.
