Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 03, 2024

Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder

Heaven is a great place for “When I was young …” lines.

“Everything human is pathetic. The secret source of humor itself is not joy but sorrow. There is no humor in heaven.”—-Mark Twain

Especially with my team winning the game on every TV screen here.

Good place to talk religion!

Looks like you just solved that…

A bar on heaven?

Besides, all they serve is wine.

Notice there are no republicans in heaven.

Ironically, he’s complaining.

Everyone is trying to get to the bar

The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven

The band in Heaven, they play my favorite song

Play it one more time, play it all night long

Oh, Heaven

Heaven is the place

A place where nothing

Nothing ever happens

IF there were truly a situation where joy abounded, then, well, you’d be joyful. How not?

Anybody read a first hand report?

“Life is a bi!ch; and then you die” saw that on a coffee mug

There was an episode of “Night Gallery” where John Astin played two roles. The hip swinger who was condemned to Hell for all his misdeeds; and the boring, inane old coot whose idea of Heaven was to have someone who would listen to him ramble on and on forever and ever and never walk away…

you can complain about how boring it is to not have anything to complain about.

Divine comedic Easter Egg: The bar snack in the bowl is rancid.

Isn’t he complaining about not complaining?

Oh, Quit your complaining!

In Heaven there is no beer, but apparently there are Martini’s. hmm

“Holy, Holy, Holy”, repeat…

There is a great Twilight Zone about a dead petty thief thinking he was in heaven because he could get anything he wanted without any effort. He got so bored he asked to be sent to “the other place”. It was then that he was informed that he was in “the other place” for eternity

“The Hell-Bound Train”. A great short story by Robert Bloch.

CHEERS!!!

The Twilight Zone “A nice place to visit”

Ah, but is this not, in itself, a complaint? Therefore, he must be happy there.

Anyone who thinks eternity in heaven sounds nice has no concept of what eternity implies. Just let my existence end, please.

Ah, the spice of life (or death)!

It does seem that the more one hears about heaven, the less heavenly it seems. Does one really want to spend eternity doing nothing but singing away trying to satisfy the amazingly immature emotional needs of a supreme being with remarkably intense narcissism, severe anger management issues, a profound lack of basic communication skills, a bizarre level of cruelty and a massively inflated ego?
