The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for April 23, 2021

Hey, a bat for hitting curve balls!

Oh the Bvurgs and the Bzeeks! Such an interesting discussion! I think there is an after school special about that…

Well, somewhere in our universe, an alien parent is going through the same speech!!!

Where’s the Ceznsshorx when you need one?

Well then,BZYNXAAA!!!

I’m afraid this comic might start my nightmares up again. I had forgotten about the Bvurgs and the Bzeeks. They are the most terrifying things in the world. I’m worried about going to sleep tonight now.

Heh heh. Good one.

Let me tell you ’bout

The Bvurgs and the Bzeeks

And the Growlits and the Fneeks

And the Earth up above…

And a thing called ‘love’…

Oh, come on. You know he’s already Mzzztrabvvting and watching pvvvzt.

Oh, he’s old enough, dad found a copy of Playbrzxy under his bed!

Better here than on the stzzbt!

Don’t forget to tell him about Bazinga!!!

Oh my, both father and son need to buy a vowel.

I think that trying to hit a ball with a curved bat would be difficult.

This alien language looks to be based on Ikea words.

Mom and dad are going to be sluggin’ it out later.

“AW MA! I already know about the GLRPLVS’ BZYNX!”

HEY, ISNT THIS A FAMILY COMIC!!! :P

Evidently Jr is having the universal reaction to TMI from the parental units!

Dad had to do it now. His son will be splitting up soon.

And don’t forget to bring protection! Sometimes GLRPLV’s like to snack after, well, you know.

I suggest the bat.

Now if we could only teach him to say the name of the magical imp from the 5th dimension who often bothers Superman: Mr. Mxyzptlk

Let him learn it out in the street, like the rest of us!

He was explaining what they just saw in the movie and why someone would do something so seemingly imperceptible and senseless.

He’s already getting that information on Bzeekbook.

SHAZBOT!!

The look of snurgleflorp on his face is priceless.

It would be worse if they were praying manis, and mom was explaining to junior…along with why junior doesn’t have a dad.

Praying mantis

Are those socks in the laundry basket? What does he need socks for? Wait, no, don’t answer that; puberty and all…

No vowels in nouns in their language.

“Years” and “Bzeeks” would be exceptions to that rule…

The Zgfnors’ grow up so fast today and probably knows more that Grsxl ever knew!

They should learn about the BVURGS and BZEEKS where everyone else dose, the streets.
