Yes, when you say “things can’t get any worse”, it only shows your failure of imagination.
Part of the reason for posting this is that if you subscribe to GoComics, the Sunday lagniappe panel is not included. I don’t understand the reason for this. It’s there in what the syndicate gets. I’m a paying customer. Jef posts it on Facebook, so he clearly wants it out there. Why not show it to me?
Haven’t we always suspected this?
Grawlix has shared as a CIHS (Comic I Haven’t Seen) this instance, called “What’s New?”, from the strip Poorly Drawn Lines by Reza Farazmand. Grawlix sees them from time to time on Facebook, but the strip also has a website; and warns that “It does contain NSFW language from time to time, unfortunately.” Oh, and we have been unable to establish connections with musician Badly Drawn Boy.
But, another county heard from…
Not quite a CIHS, but truth to tell I’ve been looking at it rather inattentively for a while. This one made me stop, and wonder about the apparent mésalliance. Well, a little rewinding, and checking the “About” blurb, informs us that Little Pig #3’s Girlfriend is Wolfette, and is sister to the actual Big Bad Wolf — who in this retelling is still pretty bad.
Useful among the online comments — “Relationship Status: It’s Complicated”
Can take a second to fill in the backstory.
Now marking as a CIDU, for readers not familiar with the yips.
Continuing the metaphor: orange traffic cones are like the Legos strewn around the floor for the enjoyment of our feet. Potholes are teenage acne. Tickets are tuition bills.
A little cross-strip banter –
Hey, I don’t care that it’s been debunked, we can still have jokes based on it!
A couple of exercise-themes LOLs.
Some comics with socks appeal:
..
From the “Wisdom from the Funny Papers” Department. Sometimes a “cry for help” must be responded to with help. Sometimes when “they’re just doing that for attention” the humane response includes paying attention.
BTW, Maritsa Patrinos of the Six Chix now has her own separate strip, called Working Cats and appearing at Comics Kingdom.
I thought this was going to be about sentence-adverbs; but it was better than that. (Hopefully, everybody remembers what the controversies and pseudo-rules about sentence-adverbs were.)
No, I don’t see a joke here. But also I can’t say there’s supposed to be one, so it’s not really a CIDU. So let’s just take a minute to admire the artistry here. Such draughtsmanship! That ice-cliff shows us both distance and height, even while a whole surface is devoid of detail.
Nothing like a little expert post-game analysis to ease the pain of a sporting event hangover.
Isn’t the best ending to having a kidney stone to pass it? At least, better than not being able to pass it.
A few of the kidney stone comments on this comic:
“Better pass than fail”
“Well, well, well…Dylan wasn’t right! NOT “Everybody Must Get Stoned””
“Medical students dread the test on kidney stones. It’s the hardest one to pass.”
“Man walks into a bar. Bartender “Do you want to enter our drawing? We’re giving away a set of kidney stones.” Man responds “Nah, I’ll pass””
While we’re on the topic: (not a CIDU)
Zippy feeling just a bit meta.
And a semi-CIDU for this same couple:
The question being: Is the guy just pushing his point by selecting a random term meant to be absurd, or else do they maybe have something (like a remote, or an ashtray, …) which is actually crafted to look like a Stegosaurus?
Why not start off Sunday with a bit of math? Roughly how old is she?
This is Frazz’s Sunday intro panel for January 7th. Mallett posts these on Facebook. Otherwise, I’d never see them because GoComics doesn’t use the intro panels, for reasons I don’t understand.
But we’re not done with Tom Falco! (BTW, 305 is the area code for Miami, where he is based.)
