Sunday Funnies – LOLs, November 03rd, 2024

Boise Ed submitted this one last year, commenting “Every now and then, Pardon My Planet comes up with a real zinger.” I think I’ve seen it before, but I can’t find it in a CIDU post, and in any case it’s worth repeating:


The not-quite-complete “Arlo” moment in this “Zits” came as a big surprise. Perhaps King Features relaxed their censorship standards when they relaunched the Comics Kingdom website?


P.S. And what if Jeremy’s mom had not left it out? What then?


Two half Arlos published on exactly the same day do not count as a whole synchronicity, but this Luann was pretty good, too:


P.S. Note the annoying, but otherwise irrelevant color error in the second panel.


Boise Ed said about this Argyle Sweater: “Perhaps this is the fifth wall, since he’s erasing four“:


Another meta Macanudo:


P.S. The title panel bears a fair resemblance to “In the Court of the Crimson King“, but it’s unlikely that it was intentional:



Danny Boy sends this in as a CIDU, but rather than post it long after Halloween we’re putting it here. “What, what? “I was making rather scary yesterday.” Is that something like “making merry”? I.e. celebrating and now hungover (and just getting into the office at a quarter to five)?

No, I don’t think I’ve answered my own question. “Making rather scary” is still pretty opaque.”

Or, trying to scare the street urchins?


Danny Boy hopes “that mechanism isn’t set up to treat the TP as reusable!”

Nice variation on a standard cat-behavior joke. (Do you’all remember Business Cat #1?)


I’d call this Andertoons just about perfect!



Hmm, would it be better if the two ideas in the last panel were reversed? First “wonder why” then “and how”?

Saturday Morning OYs – July 15th, 2023

Diamond Lil seems to do a pun every day. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t from time to time pick out some striking ones to recognize.







This OY-Ewww was suggested by Maggiethecartoonist, who points out that the apparent Ewww element is based on a misunderstanding of what happens in what the Romans termed a vomitorium.


Nice, the way the at-first-hidden generalized your makes the whole thing work.


We had marked “Unintended Arlo” but really now, how can that not be meant?

Obligatory topic

Okay, it’s Resolutions…

Luann


“This year we’ll turn it around” counts as a resolution in my book!

Crabgrass
Adam@Home Comic
Half Full
Mike Du Jour
Wallace the Brave

Maybe IDU that one?


Nancy: still looking for loopholes after all these years (and cartoonists!)

TBH, this was for me more a chuckle than a full LOL. But I was wondering if others also see an analogy between the point here and our thread about interpreting “The exception proves the rule” from early January.

For that matter, what sort of thing was a “buck” in that saying, by the time HST talked about it?

Thanks to Boise Ed for this Ewww-LOL!

Okay, okay, Reply All is an acquired taste I guess.

Is anyone ready to name a particular Raymond Chandler title being quoted? Or is Bliss just happily riffing on the voice?
