Fred Basset

Fred walks along the street with his eyes closed. Suddenly he comes to an abrupt halt and opens his eyes.
"This is not good!" he thinks.
Quickly he turns his head to look behind him.
"This is so not good!" he thinks.
Four dogs, grinning malevolently, approach from both sides. He's surrounded, there's nowhere to run. Could this be the end of Fred Basset?

No, of course not, nothing bad will happen, this is Fred Basset.

Mary Worth

"Be slow to fall into friendship; but when you are in, continue firm and constant." - Socrates

"We've been doing so well..." says a voice from inside the crazily tilted building.

"As friends." says Dawn sadly.

"Jim's anger doesn't sit well with me." she continues, balancing a plate of some unidentifiable brown substance on her palm.
"You care about him." says Mary, likewise balancing a plate of brown stuff.

"He's my friend." says Dawn, reaching toward Mary.

"Just because I don't want to date him doesn't mean I don't care about him." she continues, weighing an imaginary object in her hand. "I hope he realizes that. And I hope he realizes this has nothing to do with his arm."

"What are you going to do?" asks Mary.
"I'll keep calling and texting him..." says Dawn, thrusting her fork at Mary's face. "I'll keep trying!"

Marmaduke

Marmaduke lies on top of his kennel, which is stuffed full of pop-corn to the point that it is overflowing and pouring out of the door and covering the grass in front. Some of it is flying through the air, suggesting that it is still popping.

"I think he popped too much popcorn." remarks one neighbour to another, neither of them seeing anything particularly unusual about any of this.
