Thanks, Ray C! I never noticed the “Nostalgia Week” printed at the top, my eyes skimmed right over it thinking it was the “find it” (which I tend to ignore because I usually can’t find it).
I was so bummed when my local paper stopped carrying this strip.
Hey, everybody – I was right! The comic from 3/11 was a repeat from 9/21/07!! Whoever guessed what the reporter was actually saying was right, “You look like the ocean and the stars together.”
Just wanted you all to know I wasn’t crazy!! Well, at least about this.
I still say it’s a repeat, and Dinette_Setter’s fill-in-the-blank made the memory even stronger. Not meaning anything bad, but when other strips repeat a comic, at least they put “Best of …” or “Revisited” or something to make people know that they’re not going crazy when they think it’s familiar. Or maybe that was just the voices in my head. Yeah, yeah, you’re all just jealous that they don’t talk to you …
My mother told me a story about back when they had pay toilets. She and her cousin were “in distress” but didn’t have any money, so they crawled under the door (ew, ew, EW). The owner of the place saw them and stood outside the stall with a stick and wouldn’t let them out, he kept whacking them. My grandparents finally tracked down my mother in there, and the owner just kept yelling, “They crawl under door like the snakes, they get beaten with stick like the snakes!!”
I may be new here, but I learned long ago that sometimes avoidance is the best heartburn prevention. If you don’t like somebody’s postings, just skip over them without reading.
