Was the garbage supposed to be there in panel 6, when she says “looks nice”? Or are we supposed to assume that it’s moving forward? Is it alive?
Garbage monster
“You cannot turn off autoplay”
A synchronicity of LOLs from Boise Ed:
(However, I think the “Previously on” does not count as part of the Intro that gets skipped if you so elect.)
“Could you scoot over and make some room?”
Probably a bit too technical (though not hard to look up). But the point of interest is in how it uses the tools of “photographic meme” but in a drawing. Would the same joke (about “getting cancelled”) work in a direct cartoon format?

Andertoons is a bastion of b/w/grey, small jokes, big funny! A couple of this week’s episodes:

From Andréa, here is a matched pair of geezer-warning Oys!
Was that a good word-play or more simply a LOL?
A dog by any other name. . .
From Stan, who says “Maybe it’s that he’s a ‘fire dog’ now (is that what they’re called?), but he’s still a dog, right? It’d be like someone saying, ‘I used to be human, but I’m a dentist now.'”
Or is it just a rummy?
From Karen, who wonders “Is this supposed to be Cards Against Humanity? But they’re using a regular deck of cards?”. But who can resist the demonic drawing of the triumphant rejoinder!
Car 54, where are you?
From Mindy:
A club in the kennel
Stan sent this in, and says ” I don’t understand this at all. What’s the joke? Is it that he’s talking to a boxer? If so, what’s he pointing at?” . Here at the CIDU offices, the conversation has been about how the Fight Club line applies to a Kennel Club. Especially if that doesn’t mean a club organized in the kennel, with dogs as its membership, but retains the usual meaning of an organization of human dog-fanciers, that sponsors shows and pedigree registrations.
Choose your target
Not quite the sharply-targeted (some might say mean) comic strip parodies Super-Fun-Pak Comix is in part known for, this linked sequence seems more like documenting and mildly kidding off some familiar tropes. Do you agree that there is something pretty artful in the selection, sequencing, and linking of the comic old-standards?
