Okay. This is a vending machine that sold him a vending machine, which presumably would sell him an even smaller vending machine, and so on. But why “CAPITALISM”?
CAPITALism?

Seedless
Dale sends this in: “I get drilling a hole and putting in a straw in to drink presumably the water and, thanks to Google, the reference to Adolph Menzel a Realist artist. But looking at his work, I didn’t see anything like fake versions of real stuff.
What I don’t get is what’s the green and maybe also pink putty for. Why do the watermelons have spots and seams from end to end? Are these not supposed to be watermelons? If these two were making fakes then why is she slurping?
Oh and what’s that critter poking its head out from behind the woman’s leg?”

Saturday Morning OYs – September 27, 2025
Mitch4 is driven to send in this OY:
Took me a while to get this, but a definite OY.
Lazy, or Efficient?
Boise Ed sends this in: “Today (Saturday) is the sixth straight day he’s used the exact same art. I’ve seen such re-use in other strips, but geez, six straight days?”
That one’s the start of the series. As I post this, I don’t know whether it continues further (or whether Brett has used this in past years).
Somebody Call the Wagon
In this comic from 1948, the joke is clear, but the term “somebody call the wagon” isn’t. What does wagon refer to?
A quick internet search isn’t much help: “In Irish slang, the term “wagon” is commonly used to refer to an individual, typically a woman, who is perceived as being overly flirtatious or promiscuous.”
The Usual
By definition, it’s no surprise when someone orders their usual, but what’s the joke?
Just Ducky
In the words of Chico Marx: Why a duck?
Hey there!
Boise Ed sends this in: “Some commenters feel that the little rectangular solid is supposed to represent a hay bale. From panel 2, I infer that its name is “going.” At this point, I’m totally lost.”

Fall equinox tomorrow, September 22.
Dirk the Daring sends this in: “Not a CIDU, but this can’t possibly be a coincidence, right? I’d guess Mr. Pett is knowledgeable about music. At least one commenter besides me noticed it.”
Not every day is an exciting day, even if you are a superhero.
