They were one day apart, so not a true synchronicity, but close enough.

How many wars
Peter asks “How many wars? I’m pretty sure it’s none.”
The editors also had an internal debate over whether the hell is really that of “being stuck in one comic strip forever,” or that of “being stuck in one unending present, forever.” We booted the debate over to you.
Far, far behind Arlo
Both put by Andréa in the comments, and the second one was also submitted by Pete.
The 1980s called?
Genuine question: Does this comic work in 2020? Resistance to teens wearing torn jeans feels 20 or 30 years out of date to me.
CIDU reserves running low
Our CIDU reserves are running dangerously low. We have a few posts scheduled for this week, although most are not “genuine” CIDUs. Please send in any spare CIDUs that you have laying around the house.
Sunday Funnies – LOL, October 11th
From Andréa, for whom it was also an Oy, and from Findus.
Also from Andréa
From mitch4.
Also from mitch4, who comments that it goes with the classic joke punch line: “We needed the eggs”!
From CaroZ, who says “I believe I am using the LOL doctrine correctly.” We think so, but would remark every doctrine needs wiggle room.
Saturday Morning Oy – October 10th, 2020
From mitch4.
Gut yontif
Sentences that I would have never, ever predicted one year ago:
“The sukkah in the front of the synagogue is not kosher, because we can’t give it three walls and still make it drive-through. Please make sure everyone is wearing masks when you go through.”
I’m not Jewish, but my wife and kids are, and that was the message from our synagogue today. Imagine reading that one year ago and trying to make sense of it.
Chag Sameach to anyone who’s celebrating.
Arlo won by 18 days
For those of you who haven’t been following the (long, long) discussion in the Random Comments thread, Bill’s son, Aaron Bickel, has very generously given some of us CIDU commenters the ability to administer this blog. We hope to get a regular posting schedule going soon, but for now new posts may be a little erratic.
The queue is empty right now (I lifted this one from a comment by Andréa), so if you have new submissions, please send them to the new editors’ e-mail in the FAQ.

Except… I don’t feel the least bit guilty
