Kedamono sends this in, giving us some background on what’s happening in the strip: “Queen Victoria is rebooting after the incident of the Infinite Vickies. (Go read the comic for more elucidation.) This is the second strip after they started the reboot. What perplexes me is the “0/0/0” in the bottom left corner of panel 1. Since there isn’t a “year zero” in the Gregorian Calendar, let alone zero day or month, is it a different date? Or something else?”

Also, is this date in mm/dd/yyyy, dd/mm/yyyy, or yyyy/mm/dd format?

That was February 6. On February 7, here was a strip referencing Scott Adams death. Then nothing until Feb 12.

That one is in CIDU territory for your editor:

No comics since, up to February 15. Your editor is only an occasional reader of this strip. (I lost interest with all the endless strips about elephants.)

Sunday Funnies – LOLs – February 15, 2026

In honor of the Olympics (yes, I know track and field is in the summer Olympics)

Mitch4 sends this in: “Probably no longer an in-joke of lawyers, but it used to be said of a good prosecutor that they “could get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich”.”

Dirk the Daring sends this in as a possible Arlo: “Perhaps the first panel deserves an Arlo award.  It stopped me for a moment before I got to the second panel. I would have trouble believing this is accidental.”

Know Your Place!

Jack Applin sends in this language question: “Heart figures that her team might be able to achieve third place. Tall girl says “we might place”. To me, to “place” as a verb means to come in second (horse racing: 1st/2nd/3rd = win/place/show). Did tall girl truly think that their team might come in second, or is she using “place” to mean any of 1st/2nd/3rd place?”
