This wouldn't be funny if it hadn't been for the earlier lemonade stand discussion, wherein it was revealed that using Kool-Aid packets are, indeed, more cost-effective than lemonade.

Again, though, cute ending. Ozy is much more child-like back in the day (from what I saw of the future, anyhow), and I like that he just uses child logic. "Yeah, uh... don't care, let's run through the lawn sprinkler". Very cute.

mmmmm, remember the old title generator?

No wonder people compared it to Calvin and Hobbes in the early years. The way the title of the strip is written, the "throwaway" gag at the top. It's more than just the style of humour that he drew as an influence.

I can't see Avery acting like this later in the strips run, maybe Ozy wouldn't either. But Avery developed his own personality and he could still be a kid. Ozy just kind of froze. Seeing this and earlier strips makes me wonder how he'd have reacted to some things if he wasn't so "zen".

Alot of time in O&M there is alot of text and I might feel lazy and skip it. I've read the comics enough to know basically what is being said and it isn't important. The joke has already been set up and the text is just extending the set up further, here however, the text is worth reading since it is clever and silly. Everything Avery is saying is coherent except for the subject itself, and the outcome of "This is boring lets go do something fun" is pulled right from the mind's of children everywhere. I'm sure everybody at some point in their single digits came up with a grand idea that seemed brilliant and quickly abandoned it when it turned out to be less fun then freeze tag.

I like this one. Reminds me of my own genius economic ventures as a strapping young lad.

I hope they washed out those pots when they were done with them

Of course they didn't, children don't wash anything
