Duck and Cover

In today's Dinette Set, the reader is encouraged to come up with crazy-ass interpretations for why Dale will "be outside before you know it:"
  • Given the Tshirt-based diagnosis of ADD, he will simply forget about yesterday's global-thermonuclear devastation and wander outside.
  • He will be unable to go more than one day without a buffet.
  • He will go crazy after just one day drinking Kool-Aid.
  • He will get bored and choose death/mutation over one more day in the bunker with Marlene, Burl, and Joy. Truthfully, who among us wouldn't make that choice?

maybe stubble head is saying he would kick balding head out after a very short time.

do you think anyone's ever mentioned the concept of "show, don't tell" to julie larson? might help her cut down on the verbosity of the strip some.
