Stoner in the Stone Age

Isn’t the best ending to having a kidney stone to pass it? At least, better than not being able to pass it.

A few of the kidney stone comments on this comic:

“Better pass than fail”

“Well, well, well…Dylan wasn’t right! NOT “Everybody Must Get Stoned””

“Medical students dread the test on kidney stones. It’s the hardest one to pass.”

“Man walks into a bar. Bartender “Do you want to enter our drawing? We’re giving away a set of kidney stones.” Man responds “Nah, I’ll pass””

Yep, that’s what I thought she meant too! Did anyone here not think that first?

On the Remembrance side of things, another regular reader suggests this one:

… and provides a reminder that it has previously been the subject of a CIDU post and discussion.

Joe Heller seems drawn to combining the two aspects in one editorial-type cartoon:

Keep up, and try to focus, okay?

From Brian in STL, successfully using the Suggest-a-CIDU form. His message starts from puzzlement, but arrives at a theory your CIDU editors are also happy with: It’s not entirely clear to me what’s going on. In a way, the first panels look like the preliminary sketches a cartoonist does. So is the coffee affecting him? Or is Jane now able to “focus” since she’s had coffee?
