Sunday Funnies – LOLs, November 5th, 2023


This was a CIDU for me for a couple minutes. And I’m still not sure of the intended idea.

BTW, is a clock a standard part of Twister play?


Thanks to Maggie-the-Cartoonist for this Loose Parts LOL:


I don’t know whether this is supposed to be the joke / the point of the cartoon, but I think it’s definitely a brilliant choice to have the meeting for the road-ragers take place safely online!




We weren’t going to discuss it (Random retro LOLs, 2019 or before, Part 1)










This is maybe a bit of a CIDU now?


Also a bit unclear?

And some MORE retro Duffy, just for fun or frustration

And while this post was languishing in Draft queue, there were still good new duffies getting published. This one, for instance, which found its way into one of our weekly OY collections:

.. and prompted this intro: OY by virtue of ambiguous parsing of [[comic strip] bar] versus [comic [strip bar]]. But y’know, as Will Rogers is never quite quoted as saying, I never meta man I didn’t like. And also a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, else what’s a metaphor?

Or similar for this :

But do we care about it?




The logic clicks for me



A group that my project was coordinating with had moved offices, and the first time I visited there on business the admin assistant was showing me around, and pointed out the pretty nice view thru the ground-level glass doors onto the large grassy area between their building and the complex of the Court Theatre and Smart Museum. “This is our great view!” she said. When I agreed that it was, well, quite okay, she told me to walk by the nearest area of lawn on my way out. I did, and then saw the large air grate embedded in the lawn right outside that office, and in fact blowing exhaust at the moment. So I had to admit, they had a grate view! [==mitch]

A nice LOL-Ewww:


And then a nice LOL-Awwww:


And who doesn’t enjoy a good Alexa-Siri joke?




And an Ouch-LOL:

He meant to order an inflatable doll, but received an inflatable bed of nails.

P.S. A couple days later, this character and that prop re-appear; but decidedly not funny :-( .

BTW, Gocomics gives this feature filenames that look like loesp230927.jpg, clueing us that at some point they were considering it to be Life On Earth in Spanish. (The same artist does the Life on Earth comic.)


Again on the meta train.


Here’s a chance

CIDU: Here’s a chance for some early-riser readers to explain for others the allusions to a certain (probably false!) famous Hemingway anecdote.

LOL: But also, all can just enjoy these (somewhat sour!) joke mini-strips.
