Thats a very specific look for the flight attendant in the top comic, I wonder if it's Sergio's homage to François Walthéry and Gos comic about Natasha.

I'm sure someone, somewhere, acts like this, but for the most part I think it's made-up straw man (straw womyn :wink:) type poo poo. What annoys me personally is when a guy (usually older men) rushes past me, sometimes into me, to open the door when my hand is already stretched out toward or touching the handle, and then absolutely refuses to move until I go in before him. And you better say thank you, even though he's making the five second process of opening a door into a ten second or longer one, and embarrassing as well.

I live in the southern US and it happens more often than you would think.

On another note, can I just reiterate the confusion over Rosa not knowing what the gently caress her uncle actually does for a living? I could maybe see her hearing the word "clinic" and thinking of a smaller medical building, but how could she possibly not know he's a plastic surgeon? It's such lazy writing.

Haha, did you guys know that nerds and jocks are different? That's pretty "LOL"-worthy, if you ask me. Hee hee!

Anyway, Funky Winkerbean's current arc of "Bull learns the most basic loving offensive scheme in football" is completely infuriating to me.

Reminder that this is happening because the college supposedly has interest in Bull. This cannot be emphasized enough, if a college was looking to hire a high school coach and he didn't understand what the hurry up offense is (something who even casual NFL fans would probably understand at this point) there's no way they'd spend another goddamn second interested in the guy.

You could probably make it funny and faintly plausible if it was a Chip Kelly-like offense with the absurd huge signs held up on the sideline and he had to learn how to do that. I'm picturing his assistant holding up a big sign with a picture of a tumor, an IED, pizza and an ultra rare but now devalued comic book.

MAD once published this fake ad in the back cover of issue #306 (Oct. 1991):



A parody of Snoopy being licensed to MetLife (I believe they still use it). As it turned out, Schulz saw the parody, because he later sent this drawing to the MAD offices. They printed it in the letters section of issue #308 (Jan. 1992).

The last thing I expected to see on a random Amazon trawl...



From the fine people who are doing the King Aroo series, it's Bobby London's Popeye!

The publisher blurb posted:

Coming Soon

Popeye : The Classic Newspaper Comics by Bobby London, Volume Two: 1989-1992

When we say "complete," we mean COMPLETE! Bobby London's take on the Sailor Man has often been overshadowed by his being fired from the strip in 1992, ostensibly for presenting a storyline that was an allegory about abortion. In that ultimate tale, Olive had become addicted to the Home Shopping Network and ordered a Baby Brutus mechanical doll. When Popeye insists that she get rid of the "baby," two priests mistakenly believe that the baby is real and that Olive is going exercise her pro-choice rights. King Features Syndicate pulled the final three weeks of strips and daily newspapers began running reprints. Story over in mid-stream.

Now, twenty-two years later, thanks to the kind cooperation of the good folks at King Features, those three weeks will be included in this second volume of our series. But wait…that's not all! Turns out that Bobby London produced an additional six weeks of strips beyond the three that were pulled from syndication! This book contains—for the first time anywhere—ALL NINE weeks of "censored" Bobby London Popeye strips. Trust us, it's worth the wait!

That's right, these strips and the ones that never even made it off the desk. It is a lucky time to be alive. Scheduled for November 11, so knock yourself out.
