Well, a personal spongechronicity, anyway:
I read this comic (which I did not at all understand) while I was in Manhattan today, having gone in to buy tickets for my wife and me, our sons. and their girlfriends to see Spongebob Squarepants the Musical.
TicketMaster was charging almost $80 in fees for six tickets, by the way: How is this not considered scalping? We’re not talking about the premium they charge for had-to-get tickets (even though Ticketmaster is often the reason tickets are hard to find), which is a separate matter: these are literally the same tickets I was able to buy at the box office.
Anyway, y’all are here for the comic, not to hear me rant about Ticketmaster:

Okay, now it’s getting weird (even though I suspect those are supposed to be pieces of Swiss cheese rather than little Spongebobs: I really don’t have a clue what the Off the Mark is all about either, so I guess we get another bonus CIDU this evening)

I’m uber-confused

Uber drivers making more money if they look “rougher”… is this a cliché which until now has somehow eluded me?
Maybe I should have a specific tag for “Um… is there supposed to be an actual JOKE here?”
