"Honh honh honh," I whisper to myself, sadly

Crock, 10/27/23

If, like me, you have constructed a professional life that requires you to read the syndicated newspaper comic strip Crock every day, you need to learn how to "make your own fun." For instance, despite my usual attempts on this blog to humorously link Crock with the actual history of French colonialism in North Africa, I generally "hear" the dialogue in my mind in standard English. But what if these guys have been speaking in comical French accents this whole time? What if Crock pronounces the improbable name of the new man in the "computer section" as "vee roos"? That would definitely be funny, right? Or at least funnier than whatever else is going on here? Please, I need this.
