Yup, I'll bet that those are not kind words being spray painted on the >garage.
And as a treat, here is the Sunday comic.

I am fairly sure that Bicycle Jeff is getting his garage spray painted also.
We can hope!
In other news, my daughter just came hurrying down the door,
shouting, "I've got to get to the store, it's an emergency!"
"A Halloween emergency?" I asked.
"We don't have any candy!"
Now under ordinary circumstances, she would have had huge stocks
of Halloween candy all ready to go last week.
But she and Walkyr spent Friday driving down to Los Angeles to
attend a Danny Elfman concert, featuring a lot of _Nightmare
Before Christmas_ music, including the original Oogie Boogie doing
his thing), sleeping in a low-cost hotel, and driving back on
Saturday. So now she has a Halloween emergency.
(Last year, with lockdown on, she bought some 3- or 4-inch
diameter aluminium tubing and ran it from the top of the porch to
the bottom landing. There weren't many trick-or-treaters, but
those who showed up got their candy at a social distance. She
had me on the porch for a while, with a pointy witch's hat on and
my long grey hair trailing down around my face. Ten points for
style.)
