This Is All Arnie's Fault

Felix is definitely not doing dry January. I mean, you've seen this month. Enjoy this special Pat Sullivan Felix strip, one of the few original illustrations of Felix he did.

As Brutus and Gladys go through the airport and get on a plane, Gladys is constantly angry, looking at Brutus and going NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG. Brutus just ignores her and lives his life. Suddenly, the nagging stops but Gladys is clearly still nagging. Brutus begins smiling and thinks "Flying faster than the speed of sound does have its advantages..."
August 24, 1986
Women, amirite?

What is Gladys complaining about? Look how easy it was to board this airplane! Shut up and enjoy the flight. Unless, she's not nagging and Brutus is just assuming she is. Maybe she's angrily asking why Wilberforce isn't coming with them. He doesn't get dinner or a vacation.

Arnie walks up to Brutus, who is shoveling snow. "Hey there, Brutus. How was your business trip to Pittsburgh?" "It was fine. Once I finally got there." "Uh-oh, don't tell me you missed your flight! Didn't you take my advice about getting to the airport extra early for your flight?" "I did follow your advice. I arrived four hours before my departure time so I was extra early for my eventual eight-hour flight delay."
Someone on GoComics asked why the plane was delayed so long. I would assume it's because of the snow that's up to their knees.

It will never not amaze me that Brutus takes a plane from Cleveland to Pittsburgh which is, at most, a two and a half hour drive. I guess if Veeblefester is willing to pay for it, then who am I to question it?





As I move away from social media, more things that were exclusive to my social media will be posted here. The first entry was an updated and expanded post on Trail Park in Baldwin City, Kansas, a small park commemorating the Santa Fe Trail. If you would like to support me or this website, you can buy me a cup of coffee over on Ko-fi.
