Andréa sends these in. Is there an accent where “Potter” sounds like more like “Putter” than it does here in the midwestern U.S.?

Here are two from dollarbill (and a third one we happened upon) with the 4th-wall or meta- theme of characters knowing they’re living in a cartoon. He mentions he has been “wading through J. C Duffy‘s humongous almost daily blog posting of comic/photos/short musings beside them sometimes,” which go back years. “Fusco Brothers is just one of his outputs. The number of fly-in-the-soup variations is staggering.” CIDU has sometimes featured Duffy’s Lug Nuts, somehow strikingly different in graphics appearance yet very recognizably his work.






Does this make you feel like Dark Side of the Horse is by now influencing successor generations?


Although most cats manage without mechanical mousetraps.

Who better than an imaginary being to have an existential crisis?





There are likely some Jeopardy fans here. Isn’t is a great feeling when you get Final Jeopardy right, and none of the contestants do?




Chemgal notes that Bug Martini has been very sporadic of late, but this one brings a chuckle.


Hey, doesn’t the layout of the sticks and their backings look eerily like a face? Two eyes, round button nose, wide mouth …?

Okay, it’s nerd-amusing rather than outright hilarious …. But what a good excuse for posting a song!

P.S. This Bizarro was discussed in some detail on the Arnold Zwicky blog.



I don’t know, wouldn’t it have been simpler and just as effective to go with the standard “minstrel” spelling?




It’s a bit gruesome to contemplate just how her face has been involved in those ship launches!
P.S. Don’t forget the milli-Helen, a unit of facial beauty capable of launching one ship.
