nancy and sluggo say fuck (with) the police

#nancy #NancyComic #1942 #SundayComics #sluggo #snowmen #funny

A 1942 ten-panel Sunday comic strip of Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller, in which Nancy and Suggo are told by a cop to "bust up" the snowman they keep building because it "blocks the sidewalk," so they build one into a bus stop sign (thus not adding blockage), then one on the top of his police cruiser, which is "the last straw!" so he goes to a police telephone box (US style) saying he's going to phone the sergeant and "report them kids" only to find a snowman built inside the phone box too.

@nancycomics 'Valise' is not typically a word one would associate with Sluggo.

@scruss okay this is getting close to it. I think I need a better font still, and to figure out how to either "weather" it, or just vectorize the entire comic. I'm not going to vectorize the entire comic. I will not vectorize the...

convert -font "Bad-Comic" -fill black -pointsize 110 -interline-spacing -37 -gravity North -annotate +60+30 "$(shuf -n7 /usr/share/dict/words|tr 'a-z' 'A-Z')" ~/sluggo.png ~/out.png

edit: I think I got the text dimensions about right at least now.
(Next up relearn "lp" and figure out the "magick" command because it hates me using "convert")

#sluggo #passphrase #shell

"input" image of Nancy and Sluggo with an empty word balloon. Sluggo is yelling large words he knows like Massachusetts and Liverwurst because Nancy accused him of not knowing any big fancy words.The one-liner in the post is a script that will fill this image in with 7 random words from the Linux/UNIX/Mac word dictionary. Not all of them may be large but there are almost always guaranteed to be a whopper or two. The idea is a funny little picture that contains a passphrase for wifi or similar usage.

David Zinn, a street artist known for his whimsical chalk art, is captured mid-creation on a city sidewalk. He is kneeling beside a partially completed chalk drawing of a cartoon-style dog, vibrant with colors like yellow and pink. Zinn is dressed casually in a gray shirt, jeans, and a straw hat, with a box of multicolored chalks open next to him. The artwork is situated near a black metal fence and a parking meter, showcasing his knack for blending street elements with his art.A clever chalk art piece by David Zinn transforms a section of a sidewalk into an excavation site featuring a green alien with antennae. The alien is depicted curiously examining a bone while standing inside a hole that appears to be dug into the pavement. Beside the alien, a red-handled shovel and an unearthed artifact add to the illusion. The artwork is bordered by grass, a tree, and a parking lot in the background, perfectly integrating Zinn's imaginative creation with the urban landscape.
