The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 11, 2023

Kazakhstan.

He doesn’t know, send him paking

It Stans to reason Custer would do well at geography

This seems to dovetail nicely: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z9ntoTwQfc

You just never know sometimes what seemingly trivial little thing will make the difference between victory and total defeat.

Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Poland, Switzerland, Thailand, New Zealand, England, Scotland. (Honorable mention to the Netherlands.)

Lechistan ;)

Stan and Ollie.

Ratsnestistan

… That’s all I can stan(s). I can’t stan(s) no more.

I can’t Stan this!

- tells him-

Custer: “How do I always forget Custerslaststan?”

Cantunderstan

Trashcanistan

Little Big Hornistan?

Do they sell ice cream there?

Steve Goodman: ♪♫ "The last thing that General Custer said when he looked up and saw all the Sioux was, “I don’t know where I’m going but I’m going nowhere in a hurry too”. A fatal dose of the “I don’t know where I’m going but I’m going nowhere in a hurry” blues." ♫♪

He doesn’t know because they had different names back then! LOL

Gotta admit that I’ve never heard of Kyrgyzstan.

Sounds like he’s playing Global.

Custard’s last stand is a mile back, Stan.

He forgot I don’t under-stand

“Stan” means “land of” in . . . some language BTW.;) Too lazy to look up which one. (Arabic, right?)

The stan-dard response.

Borat is disappointed.

I forget the strip, but they incorporate Carjackistan. I think that it’s Tank McNamara.

Then there’s Stan the man.

According to Indian legend, Custer’s body had pointed pins or sticks jabbed in his ears. This was done by Indian women who reasoned his ears wee stopped up. After he had led a dawn attack on an Indian village on the Washita that massacred women and children, an old Indian woman had warned him not to try the same thing again.

he needs to make a new stan plan…
