A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are casually sitting around. Green is reading a book, while Blue is making a series of various noises. Blue: Hik... Hik.. Snif, snif, krhm, hmh, krhm, hmh, burp, sigh Both foxes are mildly startled as a bright "ping!" noise is heard, and blue lights up, glowing around the edges. Both foxes look at Blue, puzzled. Blue: I think I hit some secret combo code by accident.

Today while picking up Thanksgiving groceries, a box of blueberries escaped the cart and exploded blueberries all over the aisle where the catering pickups were. Some of the fruits lodged in the bottom corner of the cart and fell out around the store as I moved on. Breadcrumbs, but blueberries.
