Paging Peter Lorre....

I don't think Peter Lorre can come to the white courtesy phone anymore.

My favorite ever Addams panel (and maybe the most famous) - I often find myself in this very situation.

This is one of my favorites (and one of the classic cartoons that was recreated for the first movie).

^ What I love about the Addamses, is that they probably aren't dumping hot (cider? buttered rum?) on the carolers to be malicious, it's just something that they, themselves, would enjoy.

Candle Wax?
Don't we all?

I always thought it was boiling oil.
