I used to eat a ton of gummi animals (of various species), BlackPearl ...
until my dentist showed me a horrifying video.

Mademoiselle,
I've done the same thing, and recently, except with gummi bears and a bottle of water. Of course, by the time I got to the register, the package and the bottle were empty, but all they had to do was swipe them for the bar codes. I still paid for them. No harm, no foul. That's what I think. Can't wait to hear the rest of the story. :)

Really? That's odd, Lensman.
What about Count Chocula? Was he only a Baron back then?

Darrke, I don't think it should be considered stealing ...
even if you
do leave the store without paying.

No, not stealing - it's called 'consumption with felonious intent' -

Congrats, you've won the guess on the actress. And in Comics' too. No, we don't claim to be psychic. Remember, you posted a trailer about a stealing incident in the supermarket when you returned here? The cartoons were prepared in advance before this post. All 13 clicks are in. Thanks for playing.

sarcastic.

I needed to post it in installments, TallAndSkinny ...
because, otherwise, it would have been monstrously long. And some people might have just stopped reading midway through, and said, "Forget this, man!"
Anyways, thank you so much for the compliment.

I don't think he'd make much of a security guard, Cesium ...
seeing as I'm fairly certain
I could beat him up.

What Do You Mean, "To Be Continued"?
Oh my God. What does he say? WHAT DOES HE SAY?
I don't know how you include all those random thoughts into your writing (coffee? actual sleep? chile rellenoes?), but it makes for brilliant writing. You and Woody Allen.
Thank you for your frequent postings!

May I suggest he switch careers
to Sears/KMart security guard?
Or take a light barbituate prior to his shifts.

It actually gets a little worse, though. There was something else at play.
