Saturday Morning OYs – December 2nd, 2023

Cute enough!

Frank & Ernest

Thanks to Boise Ed for this OY-CIDU from Lola:

The partial CIDU designation is occasioned by the surprisingly large number of GoComics commenters who aver they just don’t get it — even after putting together “Skip Recap”. Evidently not in the habit of watching serialized TV over a streaming service.

The squirrel’s comment was briefly puzzling. The drawing doesn’t look much like a bottle, nor a glass, so the “alcoholic beverages” reading of “spirits” was blocked. But that’s what it has to be, isn’t it?

But no, kids are NOT that stupid!

One for the cat people here.

Yikes!

But maybe the hippo would enjoy Dance of the Hours more!

This was a CIDU for me for a couple minutes. And I’m still not sure of the intended idea.

BTW, is a clock a standard part of Twister play?

Thanks to Maggie-the-Cartoonist for this Loose Parts LOL:

I don’t know whether this is supposed to be the joke / the point of the cartoon, but I think it’s definitely a brilliant choice to have the meeting for the road-ragers take place safely online!

OY by virtue of ambiguous parsing of [[comic strip] bar] versus [comic [strip bar]]. But y’know, as Will Rogers is never quite quoted as saying, I never meta man I didn’t like. And also a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, else what’s a metaphor?

Who’s ready for a bit more Fusco?

In case you are unfamiliar with the referenced candy:

Diacritical impatience?

Yes, just as you suppose, this did appear on Talk Like A Pirate Day.

And more off the mark…

And a date-topical OY:

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!

Well we’re all familiar with that pun (sez Mitch), but not usually from this perspective, nor presented so starkly.

When I (zbicyclist) saw this on social media, I thought it was probably altered. I don’t think of Charles Schulz using a lot of groaner puns. But it’s legit: it appeared February 9, 1982, as I found out using the Peanuts search engine, https://peanuts-search.com/?q=bush%20pilot

How nice, when you can know just what’s coming, but the joke works fine anyhow!
