Sunday Funnies – LOLs, April 23rd, 2023





Maybe 2008, but still not an early adopter.


Last week — 4th wall needed for a watching-the-news story. (It’s just the date formatting that makes this look like a panel from the future.)


The joke is somewhat spoiled (or at least delayed) by the way the sightlines are drawn. But it emerges that what sound like rules for a tweenage girl being left home alone are being directed to Baby Bear (the dog); who isn’t agreeing to them.
(And yes, still downloads from WaPo as .AVIF and needs pre-converting.)







And this Wondermark is not really much of a LOL, but it does provide a chuckle, and prompts me to remember encountering another sense of “Bridge club” in some novels of British India (probably Paul Scott) — it was a party with several ethnic groups invited, and intended to bridge the cultural gaps.

Two comics from Ian with the common element of unpaid internships, which he notes “seem to be everywhere at the moment!”

And finally, an Ewww-LOL from BillR. It’s the “number 2” that clinches it!

Thanks to Steve S. This is paradigmatic LOL+Ewww!




In the U.S., the deadline for filing income tax is rapidly approaching.

There are likely some Jeopardy fans here. Isn’t is a great feeling when you get Final Jeopardy right, and none of the contestants do?





Chemgal notes that Bug Martini has been very sporadic of late, but this one brings a chuckle.


Hey, doesn’t the layout of the sticks and their backings look eerily like a face? Two eyes, round button nose, wide mouth …?


Okay, it’s nerd-amusing rather than outright hilarious …. But what a good excuse for posting a song!

Thanks to Boise Ed! Are salads and tights the current faves on the insta?


Not the most sophisticated of jokes, but near irresistible when accompanied by the drawing.




Definitely a geezer if this was your textbook!

Meta text is “Researchers claim to have identified 6 additional elements in the second row, tentatively named pentium through unnilium.”


We most often see PBS in the OYs, but this seems a straight-ahead LOL:

Wow, the last two Sundays were on the holidays, so there were a lot of LOLs people saw but we didn’t have the right place to post yet. And now …




A bit of synchronicity in my GoComics feed suits this post to a T.


Off the Mark





Yep, that should have more cat-appeal than pizza.


And can’t let it go without a last-minute Zack!
