Doctoring Archives - "Tuttle's" by Sam

It’s pTerrible!

Inspired by all the signs we have in this part of the country with ptarmigans on them. I think that’s what they are, anyway.

My doctor gave me a non-medicinal way to fall asleep. It doesn’t work, but now I’m really good at counting backwards from 100.

Okay, I admit this one didn’t work as well as intended. Some readers didn’t realize the first two panels rhyme.

This was based on actual events. My wife thought it was funnier before she realized that.

I wish I could do many and varied fonts like Walt Kelly. I’ve tried, this is as close as I can get.

I was kinda surprised I didn’t get a letter from someone pointing out that squids aren’t octopi. Like I didn’t know that.

The zipper part of the joke has been made by every woman I know who has had one or more Caesarians. Zip-Lock is my idea.

Counselors that I have shown this one to liked it. A lot.

Back when I worked in hospice, the first time I heard the term “swing bed” I couldn’t imagine what that meant.

I have known a woman who liked rutabagas. She’s dead now, but I don’t think it was the rutabagas that killed her.
