Sunday Funnies – LOLs – July 26, 2026

There’s limited continuity expected in a gag strip, particularly between Sunday and the rest of the week, but there’s an interesting contrast between the Sunday strip and the Monday strip here: (7/12 and 7/13)


Reminds me a bit of that meme where you are supposed to punctuate this sentence:

Woman without her man is nothing.




Are trust falls still a thing in workshops? I do remember one time when the person doing the catching was surprised when the person fell sooner than they anticipated, and they both hit the ground. Luckily, the damage was limited to bruises and future teasing.

My favorite are the historical markers that talk about towns that WERE there at one point, but there is no current sign of the town. Nothing to see here, folks!

OK, not really an LOL to your editor. It’s a comic that brings back painful memories of actual events.

Adding staff to a project in the middle is problematic: (1) you have to bring them up to speed, and (2) you’re likely to get staff that can be spared from other projects — not necessarily the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Similarly, a PM (project manager) added in the middle can be useful, or can just be a dysfunctional scheduler of status meetings, status update reports, and, if they are really bad, someone who attempts to assign blame when asked to do so by management. The difference between a good project manager and a poor project manager is immense. [end of rant]



Ewws (you’ve been warned)

Kedamono sends in this questionable sculptural decision — which, luckily, the Egyptians did not make.

Mark Parisi posted: “It had to be done. (On my Patreon page I drew the view from the other side. I then sent that to my editor asking if it was too much to be published in daily newspapers. He suggested it could be newspaper-friendly if it was shown from the other side. Smart.)”

Actual back of the Sphinx:





Kedamono sends in this one: “I can’t decide if this one is a LOL or an OY. Still, there is something graceful in synchronized garbage tossing.”

Not really that much of an Ewww, but seemed close enough to one to put it here.


And another from Mark Parisi:

Boise Ed sends this in: “Absurd … Perhaps the category should be “Heaping scorn.” I can see no way they would both be on the hammock in the first place without serious cooperation.”


Remy’s vocabulary needs a little explanation: Strava is a free/paid app that is used by runners/cyclists/walkers to record time and distance. This is usually posted to Strava friends for kudos.

BQ in that last panel is Boston Qualifier, a time which would qualify you for the Boston Marathon. Women aged 18-34 need a time of 3 hours, 25 minutes or less.




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.”



Sunday Funnies – LOLs, December 01st, 2024

Mark H. submitted this 9CWL strip last year as a “Geezer Alert” (and partial CIDU), asking: “Does anyone younger than 60 know about Jimmy Hoffa?” (The CIDU and/or puzzle component is to figure out what she might have said to him underwater.)


P.S. It is so refreshing to post a Chickweed Lane strip that is not (automatically) “Arlo” material.


This was going to be a CIDU, but it seems to be a colorist error. That’s not a basketball, but a curled up armadillo. But they don’t change color when they curl up, so far as I know.

From Wikipedia: “When threatened by a predatorTolypeutes species frequently roll up into a ball. Other armadillo species cannot roll up because they have too many plates. When surprised, the North American nine-banded armadillo tends to jump straight in the air, which can lead to a fatal collision with the undercarriage or fenders of passing vehicles.”


Usual John sends this one in. This gets a bit of s “Eww”

The previous one in this series is pretty good, too.
