All a matter of perspective.
You won’t believe #4!
Boise Ed sends this one in: “The background is that Florence is a dog who was uplifted to human-level intelligence with walking and talking capability. She now interacts with people pretty much like any other human of a different origin. I thought the “two left feet” line was delightful.”
Does this early Peanuts comic may provide Lucy the motivation for her endless football revenge on Charlie Brown?
Mitch4 sends this momentary CIDU in: “I was puzzled until learning that both “Mary Sue” and “plot armor” are fandom terminology.”
Hang on to your wallet, Auntie!

Thanks to Boise Ed:
Mom clearly doesn’t like the idea, but what “will” Dad do?
Similarly, hearing one side of a juicy conversation while on public transportation. If you are going to be talking loudly on your phone in public, please put the other person on speaker so we can get some closure. What did Betty say to Barbara?
This Gordo is from 1974. I had to memorize this in Catholic school, possibly less because it’s a great poem to introduce grade school students to poetry than because Kilmer was Catholic, something that was always emphasized by the good nuns. Original poem here. Ogden Nash wrote this parody:
I think that I shall never see
A billboard lovely as a tree.
Perhaps, unless the billboards fall,
I’ll never see a tree at all.
The fun part of this one is figuring out what real cereals Nathan Pyle is referring to:
I had dessicated grape chaff for breakfast this morning.
I may have the citation wrong here. This is a comic that resurfaced among the ones I’ve saved over the years, but this one was saved without citation, and may not be from Bug Martini.
In honor of CIDU Bill (Bill Bickel — and definitely not Idiot Bill Bickel) here’s a bit of a tribute:
Usual John sends this in: “I can’t help thinking of Idiot Bill Bickel, and the name Bilden Bickworm makes me think that may not be just coincidence. FYI for those who have not been following CIDU for years: Idiot Bill Bickel was (and presumably still is) a real estate agent who had the same name as CIDU Bill (the original moderator of this website) and inexplicably sometimes gave people CIDU Bill’s email address instead of his own.”
(This was posted as a LOL some months ago; it seems appropriate to repeat it here)
Can’t I just use facial recognition?
Meanwhile, over in Gasoline Alley, Walt (who must be somewhere north of 115 years old) is having a dream and discovers you can’t even get into hell without proper credentials.
Maybe not so much an LOL as a scene from a documentary about parenting.
Meanwhile, there a bit more comedy left over from Thanksgiving.
Boise Ed sends this in: “Another good reason to get a smaller turkey next time.”
