I remember binge reading some Bettle Bailey when I was a kid and if you read a lot of the same author in one sitting you are bound to find some similar jokes.
I always though it was the author being lazy hoping nobody would notice (ah ah) but after writing 2000+ strips I admit I'm starting to lose track of all the jokes I've written.
For those who found today's joke similar to a previous on I apologize thou if there is any comfort I think this one had a better delivery.
I'm sure this won't prevent multiple people to pointing my slip on the comment but I guess this, too, is part of the fun.
