Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for March 20, 2016
Transcript:
Marigold: I shall take two cards. Phoebe: You have a tell. Marigold: Of course I have a tail. Phoebe: But your tail is also a tell. Marigold: And my nose is a nose. What is your point? Phoebe: Your TELL is how I know what kind of cards you have. Marigold: You cannot read my mind via my tail! My brain is a the other end entirely. Phoebe: FOLD. Marigold: Drat! I had good cards! Phoebe: Yeah, something told me that. Marigold: You are just jealous of my tail.
Reminds me of a “Calvin and Hobbes” strip. Hobbes asks for one card, flips his tail around in Calvin’s sight, and Calvin says he folds. “Are you cheating,” Hobbes asks.
