Saturday Morning OYs – February 10th, 2024

An Awww:

Ooops, accidental repeat! This was already here in the OY list, when the Lard came along and triggered the Thursday quasi-synchronicity post. And we forgot to delete this occurrence.

There was a “Save the Naugas” movement! (Was that the Car Talk bros? Um, no, they were doing “Save the Skeets”.)

Here in the mid-South Side neighborhood around the University of Chicago, we think of this fabled pair as Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde-Park.

Thanks to Chemgal for sending in this Frazz, a good combo OY/LOL.

For what happens if you mix probiotics and antibiotics, see https://xkcd.com/2177/

Hey, what an interesting odd combo of meta and straight-up OY!

Bonus: Shared gripe!

Thanks to helpful tips from readers last time Comics Kingdom commenting came up, this time I was able to remark on this one: “So true! Burns me up when they do that!”.

A Speling Problem?

Thanks to Targuman for sending this, …

… and pointing out that the purported alternate spelling does not appear in the comic. So what is the desk manager getting at?

OMG

No, it’s not an inexplicable synchronicity — this Wednesday was Periodic Table Day, as the Dave cartoon points out. Still, a pleasing convergence on the same choice of elements!

The Acts of Zack

Oh sure, because she means, uh, um, …?

Am I Just Slow?

They’re outside the zoo, and the turtle and the ?? are walking away. So?

Brushiest

(Title is an anagram, left as an exercise for the readers)

Leigh Rubin has been on a roll lately, slipping almost-NSFW strips in:

Toomey had one, too

I’m marking these Arlo even though I’d suggest it’s arguable that they don’t need it.

Sunday Funnies – LOLs, February 4th, 2024

TBH, this Rae the Doe isn’t really a LOL; but it needed to go in a list-post as not fully justifying a standalone daily post or even a bonus. What’s special about it is that you don’t often see a genuinely informative infographic as panel or strip of a regular comic (that is, excluding those that purport to bring you facts every day). Also, the artist’s note is endearingly unassertive, as usual (yes, she does put in notes somewhat often).

Happy Belated National Peanut Butter Day (January 24th).

BCN does Alice!

No, I kan’t make any sense of this Calvin and Hobbes:

Saturday Morning OYs – February 3rd, 2024

Love that Monty Crisco! (But I don’t know what typo on Nesselrode Pie would be likely, or funny.)

Always go for consistency!

And a P.S. from B.C.

He tries just about every day, so why not give in and post one now and then.

Growing up, I knew only two pasta shapes: spaghetti, for spaghetti and meatballs, and macaroni, for macaroni and cheese. Imagine my surprise to find such an endless variety of shapes coming out of the extruder. And tortellini! And soba! And rice noodles! Now there’s chickpea pasta, etc. It’s a wide, wild world out there.

Just pasta these comics is a place to comment on your own favorite shape/type.

A synchronicity here, with two Dante-themed comics on the same day. What a Paradiso!
