“Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until next week”. — Procrastinator’s motto

Why that particular part of the drum set? Is there something cymbolic I’m missing?
It’s Thanksgiving Day. So it’s not a bad idea at all to stop right here and think of 3+ things you are thankful for. Go ahead. We’ll wait.
Even Thanksgiving can be prone to scams:
billr sends this in: “Is the misspelling of recidivism part of the joke?”
Jack Applin sends this in: “Baldo, Estella, and Cruz (orange cap) encounter “Man o’ the Cave” (in Flintstone garb) at a carnival. The caveman tries to walk out with Baldo & friends, and is stopped by the guard. WHY? Is he a prisoner? Does carnival security keep track of groups entering, and insist that they leave in eactly the same groups?”
The next day’s Baldo clarifies the intended joke, but does the old guy really look like Cruz’s double?
Mitch4 sends this in: “Okay, I guess I see what is meant to be a joke, just in the unlikelihood of the executioner stopping to satisfy his curiosity, or the condemned man politely offering this sort of accurate explanation. Or perhaps in the gallows humor (ahem!) of how he describes the value of the bottom half.
But I couldn’t shake the feeling this must be based on some famous incident, of history or legend. But got nowhere asking Google things like “what members of the French aristocracy after the Revolution wore bifocals?”. (Though it did see some sort of nexus through Benjamin Franklin, a century earlier.)”
Interesting than panel 2 is overlaid over the right side of panel 1, rather than being separate. (Well, maybe not THAT interesting.)
Mitch4 sends this in: “LOL plus some nice word play, but not the sort to make it an OY.
I don’t know if it’s a feature or bug that the reader needs to insert “and” various places in each line to get the limerick scansion.”
Next up, “Eat It” by “Weird Al” Yankovic.

Usual John sends this in: “CIDU has once again been called out by the Daily Cartoonist, https://www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/2025/11/16/tiptoe-thru-the-comics/, although this does not seem like a particularly difficult comic to understand.”
This one is actually from 2014. Perhaps funnier then.
