Saturday Morning Oys – June 4th, 2022

This Mother Goose and Grimm is analyzed at Arnold Zwicky’s blog.

I also posted this F-Minus, with remarks, in a comment on that same Zwicky blog entry.

Several selections contributed by Andréa coming up:

“I KNEW IMMEDIATELY WHO THIS WAS, EVEN BEFORE READING THE CAPTION . . . DOES THAT MAKE ME A GEEZER??”

Synchronicity–

This Bizarro from Andréa is also taken up under the Arnold Zwicky analytical microscope. I like his term “a Desert Crawl cartoon” for the main trope here.

“SYNCHRONICITY – ABOUT *NOT* LEARNING A LESSON . . .”

And one final OY contribution:

Just pound

From Darren, who is amused by FTP being thought of as the old-fashioned way (and we can notice that FTP would rely on the Internet service working anyway).

Darren adds: “Cobb [this dog] is always the ‘straight man’ for setups and is sane and predictable.  But in this final panel he’s pounding on the keyboard. ⁋ Also, assuming Tucker [the boy] is mentioning this because it is nearly the deadline for the homework, what is the old fashioned way that Cobb is thinking of?  Presumably turning it in before leaving the class is not an option.”

Saturday Morning Oys – April 10th, 2021

This Mutts is from a series introducing “King”. Not the deepest of puns, but has its little charms.

Another not-so-deep Oy, but considering how much grousing and joking has attached to the Zoom software, there has been surprisingly little using this older generic sense.

From Andréa, who asks “How many even know what a CARE package was?”.

Further from Andréa, who says “I was expecting a ‘men don’t ask directions’ joke; this is funnier”.
And it’s a triple hit for Andréa!
