… at Alice’s Restaurant!
And while we’re at it, another Reply All:
And this was a winning week for Andertoons!
This Lug Nuts is pretty funny, but leaves a mystery. Hence LOL-CIDU.
Thanks to maggiethecartoonist, who says “Always remember pants”.
And another Rubes, suggested by Maggiethecartoonist :
Should I feel sheepish posting a second comic on herding?
Thanks to maggiethecartoonist for sending this in and posing the question, what exactly is a Snitch Burger supposed to be?
If you browse the Garfield archive from around this date, Jon has been regaling Garfield with tall tales from his family history, some of the strips involving this photo album or diary or scrapbook. But there is no more story about this young Mr Snitch (if that is actually his surname and not a descriptive moniker); and the idea of a carnivorous cow transmitting the snitchness into their eventual beef comes out of nowhere.
Because of his heritage, I assume that Liniers knows more about Picasso than I do. I just don’t have the knowledge of his paintings to know what Liniers intended here.
Usual John sent this in, noting “Attic cleaning month? It looks like five minutes to sweep away the cobwebs and he’s done. What in the world is the Wizard talking about?”
So, is this just poor execution, which would be cleared up by drawing more stuff in that attic (so it looks more like mine)? Or is there something specific about the objects up here, either the wheel or the box circled in red in the second picture?
There’s some pun lurking about herd/heard there, but what???
No, doesn’t seem to have anything to do with Zippy.
To cite the Classic CIDU Question, what’s the joke?
One might think that Wayno’s blog would help, but his comments on this one were mostly about how he rearranged the panel version for the strip version.
With considerable forethought, Chemgal sent this in when it appeared, last July!
There is a motherlode of Mothers Day cartoons from Foxtrot collected at their website, of which we will sample just a couple.
This first one was featured by Bill on CIDU in 2018:
This “Breakfast in Bedlam” strip seems to be from 2001:
MD gifts funded by allowance, a theme for Fox Trot, also features here in Calvin, 1989:
This resurfaced in this Saturday’s Counterpoint mailing, not where I’m used to seeing B&C.
Obligatory pedantic note: I still don’t like to see “invite” as a noun in place of “invitation”!
Betty’s son asks a question, and sure enough farther down my GoComics feed, I find the answer in Big Nate: First Class!
We almost put this Other Coast in tomorrow’s Mothers’ Day collection.
This one probably was the basis for the “word play in general” category.
Sent in by >>Boy-see Ed<<, who says “This one suits me to a tea”.
