Buck A Duck! A Random Twiki Doodle | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #044
Somebody blasted a “Buck Rogers In The 25th Century” publicity photo (circa late ‘70s) into my Facebook feed and… well… I had nothing to do, so my mind went to a moronic place:
Doodled for an audience of one: me!

The Bernie. The Mittens. The Meme. The Monty. The Controversy | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #039
The Bernie Sanders/Mittens memes… you all know what I’m talking about, right? They’re everywhere! You can’t escape them! Bernie & Mittens are the new Baby Yoda memes (thank God!).
So why not one more? And with kitties?
Why not, indeed.
The below is from Monty’s facebook page. Be warned: the following post is extremely too cute for politically delicate audiences…
See, I told ya’! It sheds of cutesy-pooness!
Now, because the above parody pic features a prominent U.S political iconoclast, it didn’t take long for the way-too-sensitive naysayers (the “stupids” as I now call ‘em) to crawl out of their hiding-behind-anonymity crevices and comment this particular post was POLITICAL.
“Political”? I don’t recall Monty’s nor Molly’s names on the electoral ballot - Representatives or Senate. What are these people talking about… … … … … oh, because it features Vermont senator Bernie Sanders.
*cue facepalm*
Before negative comments could stomp all over the likes & hearts and potentially hijack the conversation, Monty’s admin had to make a disclaimer the Bernie/Mittens/Monty/Molly post was a parody. Heck, people! Monty’s people’n’kitties reside in Denmark for criminy’s sake!
As a advocate of everything parody - and to parody the stupids (no offense, stupids) - with legal pad in hand, I responded with the below scribble:
Take that, stupids!
And to the normals, you’re most welcome.

Behold! The Garden Of Bacon! | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #030
Here’s another Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dah, drawn specifically as a mere facebook comment.
Voice-talent guy Jim Cutler, well-known connoisseur of the humble donut, shared this photo in his social feed - the Papyrus-heavy signage of Garden Of Bacon in Sea Cliff, NY.
Admit it - just reading the establishment’s name made you drool!
