    A priest, a minister, and a rabbit walk into a blood donation drive. When asked for their blood type, the rabbit says “Yeah, I must be a type-o.”

    Is it bad that I was instantly annoyed by the grammatical error in the krill joke? (It should have been, “If James Bond WERE a whale …”)

    I like the Hazcat suits. I need one. I could never even walk in the door of that house. I’m very allergic to cats.

    The James Bond one… what’s going on with the ‘ba ba ba’ stuff? I’m guessing the taller guy is interpreting what the smaller one is saying. Is he meant to be a baby? He looks bigger than a baby, and the size of someone who could speak, at least more than ba-ba-ba. Maybe he’s speaking Basque? (Geddit?) Anyway, what am I missing?

    Stan, the “ba ba ba” stuff is a constant with this strip. The Comics Curmudgeon enjoys making fun of it and spinning theories about whether the Daddy is actually in full language-like communication with the Baby, or is deluded, or is pretending and thinks he’s fooling onlookers.

    Stan is clearly not a Comics Curmudgeon reader. Josh frequently discusses Daddy Days with the weird “conversations” and whether the baby actually talks or if Daddy makes it up from the babbling.

    But yes, that is a baby not a tiny adult. Occasionally we see the baby’s mother. The parents don’t live together. I don’t know if it was ever mentioned why he seems to be the primary custodial parent.

    Here’s an odd thing I have been experiencing with the site of late. I read posts from LarK’s page. The latest entry was “Stan on Saturday Morning OYs – March 29, 2025”. I refreshed the page I got and that showed as the most recent one on:

    Saturday Morning OYs – March 29, 2025

    Then I ,made my comment, and reloaded to check that, and now there’s a Mitch comment from four hours earlier that I didn’t see previously. I don’t know if it has to do with the link including a specific comment, but I would think that would just take to that one and the other would be under it.

    This is a long-winded explanation of why my comment replowed some ground that Mitch covered.

    I approved some comment a few hours ago that got marked as spam; I don’t remember whose it was, since it was clearly legitimate, from a frequent troublemaker^wposter, but that might be the reason. Though I sorta think it was NOT on this thread.

    So I have what Brian describes happen to me all the time: the WordPress page just doesn’t load with all the comments. You have to hit refresh, sometimes twice. Just coming here to comment forced me to reload the page, and I saw two comments after Brian’s that weren’t here on the first load.
    I’m pretty sure it has to do with WordPress incompetently handling the various “new content” flags that you can set for a dynamic page; it’s been too long since I’ve dealt with those, but they do exist, and probably a few new ones have been invented because web developers almost never bother to learn what has come before, but just go and re-invent the wheel (often inferiorly).
    Best you can do is make sure to manually reload a page before you read it (if you want to be extra sure, use the force reload option (cntrl on windows, shift on mac, when hitting the reload icon)).

    At first I though Mitch and I were posting about the same time, but then saw that his was four hours prior. Eh.

    Yeah, I try to do that, but seems like just a reload doesn’t work always. In fact, it just did again, as I didn’t your (LarK’s) comment until the page reloaded after mine even though I had refreshed it first. I’ll try a more forceful reload in future.
