Saturday Morning OYs – November 09th, 2024

BVCC submitted this Argyle Sweater as the “mother of all Arlo Awards” but it seems closer to OY, especially considering the guest star in the final panel:


P.S. BVCC said that he “almost missed [the Arlo] myself“, but it’s unclear what he meant: perhaps the terms “boob” and/or “tit(t)y“, but they don’t really seem to be credibly “Arlo” (not “titillating” enough).


Maggie the Cartoonist suggested this Rubes as an OY (it might be a repeat):



Thanks to Danny Boy for sending this in. Or should it be “Muffins” is Sniff’um spelled backwards?


Saturday Morning OYs – June 01st, 2024

My friends on road trips used to enjoy “What’s that up in the road? A head?”. (Oops, accidental repeat from 25 May.)

Also fun on road trips: Look out, there’s a fork in the road!


TBH, I’m not entirely sure if “branch” in the last panel is actually intended as a pun.

There is a rather old joke involving a misunderstanding of that kind of signage (and based on a now-possibly-objectionable euphemistic term) — but wait!, it turns out this Crabgrass is not using that joke, but rather one based on a different misunderstanding of it.


Picked up from Counterpoint

Is that an electric plug in her hand, at the end of a wire? So she has unplugged a phonograph from playing one of the objectionable original versions?


It’s very simple, but (therefore?) almost perfect.

Sunday Funnies – LOLs, April 21st, 2024

CIDU? NIMHO. LOL!



Usual John sent this one. The older man is the manager two levels up.


Puzzled? Think “Exit 1, Exit 2, and Exit 3.”


A devoted cat person is going to be reluctant to blame sneezes on sensitivity to the cat. And cats are in return sensitive over human sneezing, as shown in panels 3 and 4. My cats are even more sensitive than Ludwig, and likely would run away at the point of Achoo!


This week’s LOL-Ewww:

Sorry to say our neighborhood Office Despot has closed. They were good for emergency computer cables.




The NUFFNI-DON is close enough to NUFFIN-DOIN to work as an utterance.







CIDU QUEUE REMINDER

As always — but it needs saying explicitly again now and then — we like to think of this as a reader-participation site, and not just for your invaluable (or anyhow amusing) comments, but for suggestions of comics to run and discuss.

Please share your specific suggestions of panels or strips, in CIDU, LOL, and OY categories, either by direct email to

(that’s “CIDU dot Submissions” at gmail dot com) or by using the handy-dandy Suggest A CIDU form page!

Saturday Morning OYs – February 10th, 2024

An Awww:






Ooops, accidental repeat! This was already here in the OY list, when the Lard came along and triggered the Thursday quasi-synchronicity post. And we forgot to delete this occurrence.


There was a “Save the Naugas” movement! (Was that the Car Talk bros? Um, no, they were doing “Save the Skeets”.)

Here in the mid-South Side neighborhood around the University of Chicago, we think of this fabled pair as Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde-Park.



Thanks to Chemgal for sending in this Frazz, a good combo OY/LOL.

For what happens if you mix probiotics and antibiotics, see https://xkcd.com/2177/


Hey, what an interesting odd combo of meta and straight-up OY!
