Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for June 10, 2024

Satchel is speaking noughty.

Is it not what he’s talking about, or is it snot what he’s talking about. I guess snot.

Wait until he explains "love’ pertaining to tennis to Bucky!

English Football, or as they call it over there, Football. They call our version American Rules Football.

The perils of learning a new word.

Tried this once, in an English class. The assignment was to read a novel and write a report on it. Chose an Alistar Mclean book. Wrote the report as the book was written, ie. tyre for tire and the like. Got a C minus for bad spelling. Wrote the rest of the reports for the class exactly as the teacher discussed them. All A’s. Conformity gets good grades, not cleverness.

A high-scoring game.

Something tells me he’ll soon have Bucky tied up in knots.

came to nawt, not naught

Satchel doesn’t have 2 punchlines to rub together.

To naught, to naught, won’t be just any naught. To naught there’ll be no morning star………“West Side Story”

Although it did catch on in Australia and a few other places I was always disappointed that in the U. S. the first decade of this century was not called the Naughties.
