The Auditory Processing Joust
Hark! Tis the hour of battle, as the noises of the day do take up arms and compete for mine attention, like gladiators in the coliseum of my mind.
The Beeps and Pings of text messages, and the Bodily Emissions are first to throw down the gauntlet. Mere hecklers, these! Such pucks are easily vanquished.
The Unanswered Ringtone poseth a greater menace; this troublesome vandal shan’t go down so easily, but by my blade, his fate is sealed.
Then cometh the Sidebar Conversation, clamoring with cacophony, dazzling with the drool of gossip.
But in rode the Gushing Extrovert, confounded dolt! O, how he doth prattle on about minutiae. And lo, he didst slay the Conversation with sheer tomfoolery!
What, ho! The Conditioner of Air hath raised the stakes, with his terrible rattle, a most venomous beast! Accompanied by the guttural clangor of his brother, the Jackhammer. Belligerent scalawags; these two have a taste for blood.
Ah, but tis none I fear so much as the Whispered Conversation – the most dreaded of them all! With muted speech, he veils his meaning in wizardry, yet compels mine ear to listen – nay, I cannot match wits with this ruffian! The battle is lost!
What is auditory processing disorder?

Scentsor the Skunk
Thanks to everyone who entered the Name the Skunk contest! You made dozens of suggestions, from Badger to Toldja to Officer Quibble. But in the end, I chose one I came up with myself. The contest became a guessing game, with a few helpful clues, and Susan was the first to guess correctly! I'm stoked, and I hope you are too. So stay tuned and you're sure to see more of Scentsor in upcoming toons!
