It’s a miracle!

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.”

Sunday Funnies – LOLs – April 13, 2025

We haven’t actually seen a star fall in since we invented telescopes, but I have a list of ones I’m really hoping are next.

The opposite of gravity is levity, so of course it’s okay to laugh at black holes.

Is it possible cartoonist Randal Monroe has been watching Philomena Cunk’s mockumentaries?

Snailed it

JMcAndrew sends in this festival of snail comics. The same joke used by two cartoonists, or by one comic separated by time.

Glenn and Gary McCoy are responsible for these next three.

Also here are 2 LOL comics where the word escrow is being misheard as escargot.

Last May 24th was National Escargot Day. We should have posted these then, but we were slow to get around to it.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Danny Boy sends this in.

JMcAndrew sends these two in. “Not only does this comic end with a rabbit about to hook up with a shoe but it also manages to slip in a joke about the title character from the movie “Babe”in a relationship with “Oscar Mayer””

“There’s also this one suggesting a relationship between Madonna and Sandra Bernhard and OJ Simpson with Lorena Bobbitt”

Pick a Holiday, ANY Holiday!

This year they all fall so close to one another, it’s hard to keep track.

Or perhaps not:

…
I really doubt that any mohel would be willing to perform 1/8th of a bris.
