Weebles
It’s quite possible this one may fly over the head of some of you younger folks. Weebles were a popular toy back in the 70’s and were relaunched in the 2000’s. But hey, I liked the joke.

The thing about weebles, was - they wobbled, and they didn’t fall down. Asimov apparently doesn’t fall down either. ![]()

This my friend, is classic. I say that to my wife all he time, but she is only 21 and doesn’t get it. It’s a good thing she’s REAL pretty.

Hahaha I had one of those when I was a kid!! It was a soviet version so it wasn’t call that, but a quick google image search showed me exactly what I thought a weeble was

Thanks David, I really appreciate that. I was just looking over your comic and it’s really great - how I missed it before I’ll never know. I’ll definitely be reading from now on.
