What about the spleen?

It's time once again for Stuff Out of Context! Today's line is:

She has the handwriting of a bowel.

And apparently a bowel doesn't write well at all

You mean signs apply to everyone?

Imagine you're standing in a parking lot. Interspersed among the spaces you find light poles. Typical, yes? Now, we'd like for you to focus on one of these poles. Approaching it you see this sign:
Now, if you circle that pole to the right (following the arrow) you'll see another sign:

This seems pretty clear to us. Do not park on the right side of the pole. So of course, who was parked in that banned spot? Everyone's least favorite idiot, Opie. Parked directly under the sign.

What a dope.

It's Mo Monday!

The ongoing winter weather has left everyone a little bit testy, especially Mo. Mo refuses to anything lately. He spends all day in this indoor swing. When challenged, he insists that he is "hibernating" and that he'll go outside again "when nature decides to be sensible again." We'd shake our heads at him but we're inclined to agree.

Besides, that swing looks pretty comfy

Seriously, it's a door

Tartarus has this whole stupid ritual about the end of each work day. We all have to troop down to our staff lounge together, retrieve our belongings, and leave out the front door together. Like we're a bunch of preschoolers.

With the winter weather this process takes even longer. Fed up, Spoof decided to leave by the back door today. Not only is the back door closer to the staff lounge, its the closest to the parking lot we are meant to use. Really, it's the more sensible door. Rather than just vanish, Spoof informed Shoes as to what was going on. "I'm going out the back door," said Spoof.

Shoes just stared for a minute. "O....kay." It's hard to convey the disapproving tone of that "okay."

It was accompanied by this look
 
Nonplussed, Spoof left. Nearly out the door, Spoof could hear Mosquito say "Zebra is parked back there and he's leaving out the front door with the rest of us."

Why does all of this matter, you ask? Firstly, we agree. It shouldn't matter. Why should they care which door we use?  But, because they made it an issue we can't help but point out that Mosquito has left by the same back door the last two days. Where does she get off judging Spoof for something she's done repeatedly?

Dumb question of the day

We just don't know what to say about this one. Just read.

Opie (standing directly in front of a window, through which one can see heavy snow falling , asked of Spider Hero who had just come in from outside, tracking snow behind him) - Is it snowing out there?

It's Mo Monday!

We are concerned that the continuing winter weather is messing with Mo's mind. He's made it his mission to put every animal he meets under his control. No matter what evidence we presented him with, though, he would not believe that this turtle is actually a pillow. He insists that it's name is General Terrapin, mighty slayer of enemies.

Because this pastel plush looking like a mighty killer?
