Jack Applin asks, “Which wall is this? Berlin? Separation of Church & State? Pink Floyd’s? Shakespeare’s, with the chink? Garry Trudeau’s?”
Ghostly
A friend pointed me at this, saying “Straight to CIDU — it’s ghost of sea creature? Very weak if so”.
I have to agree. I’ve enlarged it to the point of serious pixelization and still don’t get it at all.
So much WTF
From Chemgal:
She notes:
“Probably a CIDU for some. It was for me, but, it turns out it was easily Googled.”

Mitch suggests, “except that the Nancy artist likes playing meta games and so forth and could be intentionally starting off in medias res…”
What does the braintrust think?
Needs Samoa Context
Boise Ed sends the above, noting, “It’s not that IDU what’s happening, but why is it funny that the guy has stiffed the Girl Scout?”
I’d also add that there seems to be a video camera in the background, AND the woman in pink is driving something that looks more like a courtroom typewriter than a laptop–is this a recycled strip? Yet neither Tineye nor Google Images finds it, so maybe not. Perhaps Hoest and Reiner are stuck in the past?
