You know, with so many crotchety old man cartoonists griping about how everything was better when they were young, it's nice to see someone go, "Kids these days... aren't so bad, and are actually more like us than we realize!"

What I'm saying is Sally Forth is really really good. A bit wordy, yeah, but unlike a lot of other wordy cartoons the words are actually worth reading and usually pretty clever to boot.

a) no he isn't
b) the wrestler was seen exercising left-handed so I bet he's doing that to even out his non-dominant side

It's the wrestler, because he's kind of holding the axe like an idiot.
It's the weatherman, because he only has to work in the morning and he can gently caress off to a golf course in the middle of the day.
It's the stylist, who holds a grudge due to the victim's baldness.
It's the jazz player, who is clearly not a jazz player because he's playing a banjo.
It was Inspector Danger, because he's drunk with power, as well as alcohol.

I'm starting to think that Inspector Danger isn't a real Inspector, but just some wandering lunatic who barges onto crime scenes and accuses people of being murderers because they are left-handed.

In fact, him and Alfie remind me of a certain duo from a Mitchell and Webb comedy sketch.

Pretty sure I could get away with murder in Inspector Danger's world because I am left-handed to the bone at everything and anything... except at playing guitar. Just gotta make sure I'm playing when Danger barges in.

To "speak truth to power" is to tell bosses something that they will not want to hear (usually something big). It carries a whiff of noble sacrifice, so people like to use to describe someone who was fired unfairly for pointing out a genuine problem or disagreeing with superiors on something that really matters.

It's also sometimes invoked by people who just plain shot their mouth off inappropriately, blew a small matter way out of proportion, or raised a stink over nothing at all (and got fired for it), so context matters.

It's also sometimes invoked by people who just plain shot their mouth off inappropriately, blew a small matter way out of proportion, or raised a stink over nothing at all (and got fired for it), so context matters.

The phrase came from the Quakers:

quote:

We speak to power in three senses:

* To those who hold high places in our national life and bear the terrible responsibility of making decisions for war or peace.
* To the American people who are the final reservoir of power in this country and whose values and expectations set the limits for those who exercise authority.
* To the idea of Power itself, and its impact on Twentieth Century life.

Our truth is an ancient one: that love endures and overcomes; that hatred destroys; that what is obtained by love is retained, but what is obtained by hatred proves a burden. This truth, fundamental to the position which rejects reliance on the method of war, is ultimately a religious perception, a belief that stands outside of history.

and these days is used, with a straight face, by Fox News to describe themselves.

Oh, so he's looking for a mobile video editing suite. He must be, because that is the only reason to have 32 gigs of ram in a laptop. By the time a game comes out that uses even a third of that, his processor will be woefully out of date, and it's nigh-impossible to upgrade the video card on a- god drat it, these are not rear end in a top hat Nerd Comix, they are rear end in a top hat Dog Comix!




You know, I've never seen a dogcatcher in this strip. Normally that would make sense since that hasn't been a real occupation since the sixties, but this is a newspaper comic, and I saw a rotary phone in one just last week. Poncho had better watch his back.
