Relocate
Randie, as I revisit this toon, seems much too calm here. But I do suppose that you can’t live in perpetual fear… you’d go nuts… so the fear maybe has become normalized (?)…

If she’s keeping the gnome in her apartment, I would have thought that she’d at least have gagged and tied it up so that it wouldn’t be able to scurry about (in her mind at least) when she wouldn’t be looking.
Funny thing is that the dreaded gnome, that she despises, sure has served as a muse for an entire series of deathly scary paintings which she also keeps in her apartment. That can’t be mentally healthy.
Ryan should help her relocate all things gnome out of her place, quickly and soon. Otherwise, some otherwise minor event may snap her present calm and send her into a hurtful frenzy where she confuses innocent real folks for treacherous imaginary gnomes.
People can get used to anything.
Wow Stick, There’s some definite anger issues twoard the gnomes.
Remember, there only cement!
You can get used to them.
Become one with the gnome!
Otherwise meybe try therapy!
Oops, hey stick. I left you a couple more messages about my kid’s stage name about two or three pages back. Didn’t realize I had missed so many days till just now. My internet’s been mucking up so I haven’t been able to get online as consistently as I usually do.
Squid… Yeh, it was late at night and I was mulling through the elementary school shooting in Connecticut that happened earlier in the day. 28 dead (20 of which were elementary school kids); the worst school massacre in US history. And at the hands of a “smart but remote” 20 year-old son of one of the teachers, who wasn’t even there (he killer her at home at the start of his rampage). And the three guns he used all belonged to his mother, yikes.
As for the gnomes. I wouldn’t say that Randie has anger issues with them, more like fear and survival issues. I like your zen approach to gnomes, only Randie is imagining the sculptures as coming to life and adopting tools of no good (previous pictures showed an axe, knife, noose).
Pasha… No worries, I looked back. Thanks for the out-of-weddedness term clarification. I like how your daughter created part of her stage name based on her love of zebras. I guess her old band name could be rewritten as $#!+ if her old bandmates let her keep it, but I’m not so sure about what could be done with that second part of her hubby’s. I suppose that he could inform folks that in England the word faggot describes a bundle of wooden sticks used to fuel a fire, but I’m guessing he did not go after that definition.
Correction… The second deadliest school shooting in US history, 32 were killed at Virginia Tech in 2007, but still very bad and highly uncalled for at Christmas time or any time.
Stick, no my son-in-law didn’t have a lot of say in the band name. He plays guitar and the band name came from the lead singer and the rest of the bands brainstorming for a catch. Sock is the name of the lead singer so I guess that makes the rest of the band a bunch of wooden sticks. LOL.
Pasha… :chuckle:
I love the name, Sock! Hee hee.
And you can get used to just about anything. Living in London during WWII must have been terrifying… and yet you got used to that life. You can get used to living with a gnome, I suppose.
And the school shooting was a terrible tragedy, stick. I hate the fact that those families effected will have to get used to living with that horrible circumstance in their life. Christmas will always be tainted with that shooting. That elementary will always be the site of a massacre. And now, all that those parents will be left with will be photographs of their children. And not to forget the adults that died to protect them. Just so sad.
