Interesting than panel 2 is overlaid over the right side of panel 1, rather than being separate. (Well, maybe not THAT interesting.)
Mitch4 sends this in: “LOL plus some nice word play, but not the sort to make it an OY.
I don’t know if it’s a feature or bug that the reader needs to insert “and” various places in each line to get the limerick scansion.”
Next up, “Eat It” by “Weird Al” Yankovic.
And then this one by Mikey Mason: https://mikeymason.bandcamp.com/track/its-thanksgiving

Mitch4 sends this in: “A pun that surprised me.”
Mitch4 sends this in: “Another pun that tickled me this morning. But with Frank and Ernest, you *always* expect a pun.”
billr sends this in: “oy? or is there an ewww?”
Your editor had a total knee replacement on Monday, and has been using stool softeners of both types all week. (all is well now)

Mitch4 sends this in as an OY, but it has some CIDU elements.
August 13 is Left Handers Day.
Speaking of obscure holidays:
What could be in that box?
JMcAndrew sends these in: “Loni Anderson has sadly passed away. Here are a couple comics in her honor.”
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?”

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.”
Prem sends this in: “I get that Medusa just entered behind the guy. What’s the connection with fajitas? Are the snakes hissing as though the fajitas are sizzling?”
More Medusa! (not a CIDU)
JMcAndrew sends a set of related cartoons:
The last two are obviously just different versions of the same joke from the same cartoonist, even if they’re 14 1/2 years apart. I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing or not.
These all remind me of an axiom I was taught long ago as a relationship test: Have lunch at your prospective partner’s house and ask for mayonnaise. If they present Miracle Whip–especially if they aren’t even apologetic about it–RUN.
Miracle Whip is to mayonnaise as carob is to chocolate. As someone else once wrote, “Carob is not an acceptable substitute for chocolate. It is not an acceptable substitute for anything except, perhaps, brown shoe polish.”
