The Licensing Designer's 4-Stage Emotional Hellscape | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #054

Featuring parody Pokémon character "PikaPoo."

[1] JOY; [2] INDIGNATION; [3] FRUSTRATION; [4] UTTER CONTEMPT.

Loosely penned while striving to fabricate Pokémon-slash-Valentine's Day sleepwear apparel and, in typical BortQ convention, flamed out in the end (with a side order of self-loathing)… as depicted in the above Instagram screengrab.

Hopalong Hunger Games (alternate tile "Put Down That Damn Fork!") | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #053

yyyyyyyyeah... blame your gluttonous compulsions on the Easter Bunny Twins...

Sentient Spiced Baked Good Thanks Team... Then Almost Goes Too Far.

Another fun project, just in time for Easter.

The company's idea: hand out a hot cross bun 6-pack to every worker, with a sticker slapped on top reading copious amounts of appreciative words penned by the head honcho.

"Eugene 'Boss Bun'" - the sentient spiced baked good - was added for a little merriment to the whole thing.

Additionally, and on my own volition, I drew up 3 smaller bonus stickers that were to be slapped on alongside the main sticker.

2 of the 3 supplemental stickers found their way onto the hot cross bun packs... take a guess which of these didn't make the cut.

Calculating The Joys Of Tappa Tappa Tappa!

Quick little weekend doodle as we soon say fare-thee-well to the company's number-crunchin' accountant guy, Ken.

The Heartbreaking Tale Of 8 Box Crayola Boy | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #052

Originally doodled up August 29, 2020 as a comment to a Facebook post by TV announcer and donut connoisseur Jim Cutler.

In short, Jim recalls a particular haunting elementary school memory where his coveted box of 8 Crayola color crayons was upstaged by a fellow student Melissa "somebody" with her brand new 64 color box!

There's a whole video about it - well, a segment of (play at 4:09) - the actual video below is more to do with banned Crayola colors:

Rock Care 101 | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #051

The Pet Rock™ - the limited marketing marvel from the mid-70s. No matter the species, it just goes to show, a pet IS FOR LIFE!

Astrophysics, With Sprinkles | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #050

Stephen Hawking, Kip Thorne & Neil deGrasse Tyson might disagree with the scientific findings of Dunkin' Donuts:

The Lady Of The Toaster | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #049

Don't you hate it when you throw in a Pop-Tart, set the toaster to "extra-dark", and then THIS happens?

Hole In The Head Diplomacy | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #048

Mama ünd Papa never took the kids seriously when declaring they'd bore a hole through their heads if they DIDN'T go to Disneyland... the resolve of Gertrüde, Heimlich & Hähnchenflügel was not to be underestimated.

I like My Rovers Extra-Crispy! | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #047

And that's why NASA doesn't call it "7 minutes of sunshine, lollipops and rainbows."

Pinky Plague Promise | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #046

Covid has taken from us the inalienable right, nay, duty(!) to cough on people without consideration…

But, I tell ya', once this whole pandemic thing is over....

Acquittal Was Always Gonna Happen; The Break Up Was A Complete Surprise | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #045

Bad News: Trump's off the hook. Again.

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!

Evolution: What A Weird, Funny Thing It Is | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #043

When Calendar Events Collide | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #042

In hindsight, it might've been prudent to check the week's calendar prior to the company shutting off the water for maintenance... alas...

Pippo... Meet Jiggles | Scribble-Dee-Doo-Dahs #040

What transpired in the doodle above can be traced back to the two arts’n’craft critters brought in to work by Licensing Lady® created by her offspring.

Below are the actual characters, seen here in happier times:

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.
