Briefly (or quickly?) reviewing that old thread, I think tghe idea I picked up for this one today might not have been covered last year. By “I’m just wearing your glasses” he means “I’m artificially arranging to see things your way, and thus make my answers fit closely to what you would think”.
Mitch, by “I’m wearing your glasses”, he means “I’ve taken the glasses right off your face”.
There’s only one pair of glasses in any of the panels, and they switch from the interviewer to the interviewee. We didn’t see it happen, because it happened between panels 1 and 2, but it must have been awfully quick.
If a candidate touched my glasses, I would definitely not hire them. They have boundary issues.
Makes me think of Gene Wilder in “Blazing Saddles.”
If a candidate took my glasses, I’d no longer be able to see him/her.
“Makes me think of Gene Wilder”
Yeah. I deleted a sentence about Gene Wilder before hitting send. I figured either A) people would know what I was talking about, and therefore didn’t need me to bring it up, or B) they wouldn’t know what I was talking about, and I didn’t feel like checking Youtube to see if the scene is available.
Actually, I made a “Waco Kid” (Wilder’s part in BLAZING SADDLES) joke when this strip was previously posted for discussion here last year.
@ Shrug – Thanks for explaining that. I knew that I had seen that comment very recently, but couldn’t figure out where it was. I didn’t think to recheck the original appearance of this strip, to which billybob had kindly provided the link @1.
Which “Waco Kid” joke? “Are we awake?” or “Yes, but I shoot with THIS hand.”?
^^^ I’m guessing it’s the demonstration with the chess piece, which comes right after the second of those.

The BLAZING SADDLES sequel we didn’t ask for: Waco Kid: The Corporate Dork Years.
I tried to repost my last-year Waco Kid joke, but it seems to have been tossed into moderation for some reason.
Will try again, throwing in a couple of random capital letters in case the modbot dislikes that much “direct” quotation of a previous post or somesuch:
The BLAZING SADDLES sequeL we never asKed for: Waco Kid — the Roporate Dork YearS.
And then the previous (re)post showed up after all. I give up; time for more coffee and breakfast (but espeically for more coffee).
