His last words will be “This’ll be the day that I die”.



“Uh-oh, I had it mixed up with uxorious!” — from the Comments
They went to the right place for “Dad jokes”, evidently.



And another one for official Frankenstein Day:

And one directly addressing the occasion:


This from Chemgal, spotting an OY not in the comic overall but in a particular panel.

That’s right, it’s in what Chemgal calls “the third last panel”. I was going to have a fine old time on how different people, not to mention different nations, have different ways of counting from the back of a series, so the only safe way to label a “third from the end” or “second one from the last” or “position negative 3” is to adopt the technical-looking but easy-enough and safely unambiguous ANTEPENULTIMATE.
Oh but then! — but then I took a closer look, and I think the drawing is misleading, and actually the last panel includes both Adam’s speech balloon “Seriously .. all that?” as well as Katy’s and Clayton’s jibes. So the one with the cute shark tray pun is “second last” … or do you say “next to last”? Or “second back from the end”? Or “first before the last one”? Let’s go with PENULTIMATE!

Here’s an LOL from Shoe that your editors didn’t take notice of until it was featured on The Comics Curmudgeon. Thanks, Josh / Uncle Lumpy!

A good addition to the tradition of ursine puns.
(I had to convince auto-complete not to write “urine”.)

This was a momentary CIDU, for want of a comma. Sent by Boise Ed. Ed did some research on our behalf and reports “If you look in the [GoComics] comments, you’ll see that it caught Mark Parisi by surprise.”

And a longer-puzzling CIDU-oy: I still can’t figure out the intended real-life musical pair being referred to. (Searching got me to an article mentioning opera director Robert Carsen and “superstar soprano Renée Fleming” — but the characters in the cartoon are not doing opera.)



An OY-LOL: Actually, by me the pun is pretty weak, but the execution of the planner page is quite fun!





Something of a nerd-Oy. Thanks to Mark Jackson for sending!
