Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 27, 2023

I hope that’s supposed to be a hoof.

No worries; it is a hoof. The stinkin’ business was left behind, out of the frame where we can’t smell it.

Caption for third panel: “Alimentary, my dear Danae.”

But it is true.

Or is that butt?

Marigold the unicorn may have a few things to say to that horse about who is most “beautimous”.

Shut up? She brought it up. She started it.

Is that similar to walking and chewing gum at the same time?

OK, I’ve gone 68 years without witnessing anyone poop in a comic strip, then I get two in one day. (Get Fuzzy was the other.)

Said the little girl who never minded her own stinkin’ business…

I just love the way that Wiley draws this horse , so cute : )

Awww!

“Beautimous”, Sounds like something Festus Hagen said…

Replace “amble” with “ramble,” and there’s a political message in here.

Even more bizarre (and gross) is that geese sometimes poop while flying.

Road apples.

This is a conversation EVERY horse owner has had… with just about every horse. And the horses’ responses are about the same as Lucy’s :D

Horses are only afraid of two things. Things that move, and things that don’t move.

Talk politics with a horse and the horse poops. That’s why it is called “horse-sense”

Horse $#!+

Thank you Wiley! This made me laugh!

For the record, humans can poop while we ramble as well. It’s just as messy as horse droppings though, and we don’t like that more that we are in a hurry.

Horses do NOT have Richard Nixon-style 5-o-clock shadow.

And it smells like candy. /s

Don’t go giving Danae any ideas.

Yeah. I’ve always been a little envious about that.

Saw a comment recently about horses. They have two things on their mind — homicide and suicide.

Wiley, don’t know where this is going, but I like the general overall message. Stop Whining too!

This brought back a memory of the mare I had long ago. She was not a ‘spooky’ horse so when there would be a yappy dog nipping at her heels she’d time them, cocking an ear to the left and then to the right. Suddenly I’d feel her reach out, hear a thump and a lot of yipping but no more yapping. Had a lot of fun with the old girl!

Hard nut to crack. If a pooping Pony doesn’t cheer you up, what will?

Other end of the @$$ who is up on the podium bloviating to beat the band.
