Sunday Funnies – LOLs – July 13, 2025

A few days ago, your editor, riding his bike in a bike lane, was right hooked. Both my bicycle and his car had the green light; I’m going straight and his car came up from behind and turned right; luckily I only made contact with the side of his car and was unhurt except for some bruising when I hit the street. The driver said he saw me, but assumed I would stop at the green light because the pedestrian signal said “wait”! My adrenalin was already going wild from the accident and this statement failed to calm me down.

But that’s not the punchline here. While we were waiting for the police, I noticed his car had a temporary license plate. I asked it if was a new car. It was; his previous car had been totaled because he’d been in a t-bone accident the week before.

Saturday Morning OYs – June 28, 2025

Mark H. sends in this censible comic: “This one is just a specimen of five days worth of penny / money puns. 6/17-6/21 could all appear as a single “Oy” section.

I wouldn’t change a thing…”

Mitch4 sends this in: “Quite a bit of phonological compression required, but despite not looking much alike, I can buy it that “Namaste” is a good sound substitute for “Nah, Imma stay” (where “Imma” in turn is a contemporary short form for “I’m gonna”).”

Be Kind

Due to one editor being on vacation this week, we’re going to imitate the comics by repeating some classics. This one is from June 2018, by Bill

be kind

B.A.: Okay, so… a comic about the future that uses what’s already a Geezer reference (Blockbuster/VHS tapes). But I still don’t understand what the joke’s supposed to be.

Though the Cow pinch-hitting for the Squirrel does give us a passable “Oy”.

Saturday Morning OYs – June 21, 2025

A couple of movie-related OYs

JMcAndrew sends this in: “IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes have no results for anything called “The Immortal Weekend”. Does Brutus think this is a pornographic movie?”

Maybe just hoping.

Now some food-related:

On group bike rides, you call out a hazard as a courtesy to the riders behind you so they don’t hit it. So, you might call out “road kill” or “squirrel” or “skunk” … or “lunch”.

JMcAndrew sends this in: “Did someone spike it with LSD? Probably should call 911 if all these people were exposed and exhibiting symptoms.”

The Sound of Synchronous Silence

Darren submitted this same-day pair, commenting: “Two separate one-panels with a riff on mimes and the right to remain silent.” — they just don’t come more synchronous than this!

…
Darren added: “Although in the Loose Parts [on the left], I’m wondering what made him give in. Has the mime just been standing in one spot for over a week or something?“
