Single panel “Far Side” comic. Two chickens are in a kitchen. One chicken, standing in front of an open fridge with more than a dozen eggs in the door, is looking back over her shoulder (wing?) at the second chicken sitting at a check clothed covered table. Caption: “Well, here’s your problem, Marge—if you and Bob really want kids, next time try sittin’ on these little guys.”

It's not longer just figurative
Shot of the outside of the White House from “Washington Post” article about construction of Trump's new ballroom. In the foreground the gates to the grounds are boarded over. Various workers in HiViz vests and helmets are standing about. An excavator with boom extended is ripping apart the outside walls of the White House. Windows, bricks, rebar and other debris is cascading off the building and piling up on the ground.

Jet ski in retirement
A field with tall grass, shrubs and trees in the afternoon sunlight. Everything is greens and dried yellows. A red, white and blue jet ski, far, far away from any meaningful body of water, sits in the dirt.

Something to keep in mind if you are an iPhone user — you can adjust font size per app. Add the Text Size control to Control Center, then when you are in an app, access the control and it gives you a slider. I've found I don't want the same adjustments in all apps

Single panel “Far Side” cartoon. A woman with an older style, swept up hairdoo, glasses and house dress is walking down a dirt path in a dark forest. A blackbird watches her from a branch. She is pushing a vaccuum cleaner. Caption: The woods were dark and foreboding, and Alice sensed that sinister eyes were watching her every step. Worst of all, she knew that Nature abhorred a vacuum.

Neighbor exhibiting unrealistic body standards in their front yard
Sun dappled Halloween decorations. A giant sort of sinewy, woody skeleton figure with pumpkin skull looms over a flower bed with a normal skeleton in it. In the background, an eight foot flat wood pumpkin looms
