Back in college, we sometimes did crosswords by committee (or “tag team”). I once passed the paper over to a roommate, saying that he could finish the crossword. Five minutes later, he handed the paper back to me: every square had been filled in… with gibberish, little drawings, tic-tac-toe games, and other idiocies. It was brilliant, and I almost wish I had saved it, but it’s probably better that I didn’t, because my memory of it is almost certainly better than it actually was.
The only thing I can come up with for the Id comic is that the king is so full of {bleep} that his chamber pot is heavy enough to cause the tower to lean. I would love to hear a less eeeeewie explanation.

Sorry, Mike, but your explanation is exactly what the cartoonist intended.

Presumably the panels or Wizard of Id are the lead in for a sunday strip.

Yes, woozy, but the main portion of the strip had nothing to do with these panels and therefore was not invited to join us.
