Seen in 702: Panicking? Who’s panicking? Not our social media pals

Lucy Van Pelt: Maybe you have pantophobia. Do you think you have pantophobia?

Charlie Brown: What’s pantophobia?

Lucy Van Pelt: The fear of everything.

Charlie Brown: THAT’S IT! — “A Charlie Brown Christmas”

It looks like we’ve reached this point with the coronavirus pandemic — somewhere between complete panic and the final scene of “Blackadder Goes Forth.”

I’ve gone through portions of both phases, to be honest. For this exercise, I choose to celebrate the gallows humor that has shown through the various social media feeds I view.

Last plea

So I was going to do a goofy “Please Donate or I’ll Get a Man Bun” plea for my St. Baldrick’s efforts, which will be at 5 p.m. Saturday at Khoury’s Fine Wine & Spirits, 9915 S. Eastern Ave.

But my friend and hair stylist Yoli said I didn’t have enough hair. So what I ended up with was a cross between an aging Alfalfa from the “Our Gang” series and Pebbles Flintstone.
