It Works Even Better This Way

October 10th, 2011

Jaquandor posted the following quote in his weekly Sentential Links:

: DC is like Lucy and we’re like Charlie Brown. DC keeps yanking the football away and we keep yelling Aaugh! and landing hard. They’re very sure we’ll keep coming back and try to kick the ball again. And, knowing some of the perps fairly well, I can assure you they’re pretty smug about it. …

Isn’t that the truth?! The faces change but they all keep making the same promises and we keep believing them and voting for candidates who make the same promises that the last guy didn’t keep… But wait. He’s not talking about Washington DC. He’s talking about DC Comics. Oops. A natural mistake to make, no?

(I left a comment at Byzantium’s Shores but Google is being uncooperative this morning and I don’t know if it saved it.)

    I don’t know from comics but it seems that your original interpretation works very well.

    Ugh! Apparently the GoogleBot devoured your comment for sustenance. How annoying! thanks for trying, though!
