Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for December 31, 2012
Transcript:
Rob: Wait, you just said that "the grouch" is an Ellis Island mistake of "the Grinch," but earlier you said that all weird kids' characters were cold war genetic experiments-which is it? Bucky: I didn't say they were American experiments. Part of the whole war deal was getting them over here, wasn't it? The Russians were way ahead of us in the muppet race. By the 1950s they had entire towns of genetically modified puppets in the wilderness. That's why no one can live in siberia to this day. The Russian hills have goggly pingpong eyes, my friend.

Yes, I remember now. After the war Muppets were quietly brought to the US in an operation code named Plastic Paperclip. We didn’t want the Ruskeys getting all the good ones.

I think Bucky is a member of the TeaParty.

Bucky, you’re scaring poor Satchel! Just like above, I love to read the comments almost as much as I love Bucky and Satchel (and Rob). Wish I were clever enough to come up with some of those… very funny! Anyway… Happy 2013 everyone!

Now the Russians will ban American comic strips.

This is terrible too (tongue not planted in cheek). Some people just like to degrade others. Is that because it makes you feel better about yourself?

Bucky must be Obama’s chief adviser. No wonder he was so worried about Big Bird

Yeah, it’s funny. Funny thing, I’m more liberal than thou even at Unitarian meetings, BUT BUT BUT I trust the current Russian government even LESS than Bucky.
Putin? Pussy Riot? Shutting off fuel to Europe in winter? yeah, that’s the same jerks as the cold war, except in slightly younger bodies now. (Got that? creepier than Muppets…)

Ah, the Bucky paranoias of 2010. Much better than his helpfulness of 2012.

How did I miss this delight in 2010?…. Bucky paints a scarey picture. … See it now – small little towns, done up as mid western Americana circa the 1950’s. White picket fences, tricycles in driveways and flower beds. With Big Bird & his friends riding their two wheelers down tree lined streets and a Grouch in every garbage can! ….. all learning English and American ways…. learning to be moles… to subvert the young, to teach them Russian counting!….. What? You thought the Count’s accent was Vampire? Nah? He only dresses that way to confuse……:)/.=Happy New Year to Everyone! It is now, on the West Coast – 6 hours & 18 minutes to midnight and 2013.
