DoodleNovember 27, 2003

This cartoon is going along fine up until the ending, whereby, confusingly, Daffy seems to prefer being eaten by an angry cat to getting shot due to the abscence of a 'mouse-burger'. This perplexed me...still, the shot of Daffy with the 'Mickey Mouse' ears and the pitiful cry of "This just isn't my day!" whilst in a dustbin are amusing.

I only wish I could find this video. It got stuck it my head when I first saw it, and now it is impossible to find. Does anyone remember this cartoon?? Daffy's Diner (1967). Takes place in the desert, and hamburger stand made by Daffy Duck. There is one moment where hot-sauce gets slapped on a burger and daffy goes bonkers. And there is a big fat cat that wears a sombrero and orders daffy to make him a "mouse-burger" or else.
