Chemgal sends in this reminder that there might be a few syndromes not in DSM-5.
Thanks to John Reubens, who says “Thought this was clever. Made me LOL. 1880s version of unfriending? 🙂 “
Ran into this Liz Climo on Facebook; it doesn’t seem to be on GoComics, nor on her own site.
This is the funniest comic I’ve ever seen that seems reminiscent of the quadratic formula, although it doesn’t get the coefficients and exponents quite right.
This Far Side link for the snake crossing cartoon is not going to last very long.
Thanks to Kilby for sending this one, and saying “This is the best 4th-wall joke I’ve seen in quite a while:”
Paranoia strikes deep / Into your life it will creep
The great thing about this is that we understand a couple of important points about how those paintings were made.
Have we had this one before? I recall some discussion of “To Serve Man”. But not this trope of “The old surprise ending is so familiar and boring, we have to put in a different twist.”
And no, it shouldn’t be the other way around!
A possible double pun, from Andréa:
(A Super-Fun-Pak Comix)
Not quite the sharply-targeted (some might say mean) comic strip parodies Super-Fun-Pak Comix is in part known for, this linked sequence seems more like documenting and mildly kidding off some familiar tropes. Do you agree that there is something pretty artful in the selection, sequencing, and linking of the comic old-standards?
Double hit for Mannequin on the Moon:
And now a pair of suggestions from Mindy!
BTW, Tom Falco discusses on his blog how he made use of previously published versions of half of this panel.
Some oddities come with having multiple editors. One of the editors (mitch4) says this is a “semi-CIDU Geezer.” The other one (Winter Wallaby) found this a CIDU that made him LOL anyway. So it gets all the tags.
