Misogynist or Misogooseist?

There is dispute in comments as to whether the Wiz is angry because his wife corrected him and he is going to “zap” her or whether he’s mad because he hates geese and is going to do something about that. People having personal experience with geese (including me) tend towards the latter.
Anyone who has had Canada Geese (not “Canadian” Geese!) in their neighborhood can well imagine it’s the birds he’s mad at, but it sure seems unclear.
Comics-world News
(Not “Comics World News”, which would be news about comics that spans the world, rather than news ABOUT the world of comics)
Spotted in Randy Cassingham’s This Is True (née This Just In, changed many years ago after SNL’s lawyers got on his case):
So Long to cartoonist Chris Browne, who took over the “Hägar the Horrible” strip from its creator, his father Dik, when Dik died in 1989. Chris wrote and drew the comic until he died, on February 5, at 70.
Some may recall that Dik Browne also created Hi and Lois, which I’d forgotten (if I ever knew).
Some nice coverage (and no, I don’t know why only the one got a preview–it did even when it wasn’t first):

What’s that got to do with the price of Peanuts?
Hasn’t the psychiatric booth always been five cents? Is this new? Updated for post-COVID inflation? Or did I miss something else?
https://peanuts.fandom.com/wiki/Lucy%27s_psychiatry_booth talks about it being seven cents for legal help, but this isn’t that.
With the snowman involved, I’d’ve guessed prices would be frozen! <boom-tish>
It’s art!

A painter wearing a necktie, painting a canvas that is floating in mid-air in front of its easel-frame. We’ve all seen absurdities of modern art; perhaps this is absurdities of a modern artist?
It’s soccer (or football), I get that much
…and that’s about it. Thanks to Dirk the Daring for sending.
P.S. Why is the soccer ball shaped like a rugby ball?
Something Fishy Here
Shouldn’t there be some water somewhere? That seems like the really dangerous part…
#ComeAgain?
I don’t use webthings that include photo filters, but I’ve seen the results, so I’m willing to believe that they can be used to morph her original picture into that horrific result. And I think I get the #NoFilter tag joke–there’s ONE filter she’s not using. But the progression of images doesn’t seem to support that: if the last one was lacking the flowers, then it would make sense.
Or am I missing something else??
Something something Wizard of Oz, but??
OK, I get that the flying monkey has perhaps pooped on the car, but mutiny? And is this the witch who’s hydrophobic? Can never remember which witch is which.
Goodness Gracious!

He notes, “If you watch closely, the lip synch (particularly for the piano playing) has a few misses in it” and that another, actually live performance is better in that regard:
