Liar! Liar!

With or without the fabled “pants on fire”

Is still a lie, and as such must be dealt with straight away in order to discourage it from happening again as well as to regain the good name Canyon Pete and Billy have worked so diligently to establish.

The Lie

On April 20, 2014 within the post titled “Do you really need a “Seal of Approval”?” there appeared the following:

There are those few who, having seen the last episode of Canyon Pete and Billy, will  be surprised by, or at least think it too early for, their return especially in the light of the repetitive use of the slightly offensive, kind of dumb “Go fuck yourself”, and they’d be right,so, I would like to promise that in the next installment there will be no foul language used.

Thank you,

The President and Founder

 

As you can see the words I have highlighted in red promise that “in the next installment there will be no foul language used”! Could it be any clearer? The President and Founder has promised (in writing no less) to not use profanity in the next installment of the exciting adventures of our beloved heroes, the best of friends, Canyon Pete and Billy.

Yet

Only two days later there appears a post titled “The real deal on grocery store rewards cards” which contained the following Canyon Pete and Billy cartoon:

Now

Unless I am mistaken the phrase “Go fuck yourself” used in the above cartoon starring the best of friends, Canyon Pete and Billy, contains the word “fuck” which, without referencing any linguistic authorities, I can say, and most sensible people would agree, is a swear word, a profanity.

Case closed

Except for the fact that the President and Founder had made no indication of his extreme sorrow over having so boldly lied to what amounts to everyone with access to the internet for the reason that, while improbable, it is still definitely possible that they could come across the post mentioned above, and therefore be lied to.

Then

 

Lo and behold, the President and Founder issues the following apology:

I lied to you when I said I wouldn’t use profanity in my next post and I’m sorry

 

To which

 

We replied with the help of those good pals, Canyon Pete and Billy
