I went to look up if there was a Saturday strip (there wasn't,) and happened upon this, the rerun strip for Saturday on gocomics. Incredibly coincidental as it is, I believe, the penultimate Sunday strip, featuring the man who is, 26 years later, responsible for the strip's rebirth.

You're lost and find a house
There's no one inside
Go in the basement
And in the corner of the room you spot him
Rorus the Goon

He's looking at you
You can't find the exit
He throws back his head and lets loose a dog-like howl
He's aware of you
Rorus the Goon

You're looking for the door
But it's so dark down there
You can smell his breath now
And you see there's sauce on his face
My god, there's sauce everywhere!

Fearing for life
It's Rorus the Goon
He's photoshopped a knife
It's Rorus the Goon
Lurking in the basement
Politoon Superstar Rorus the Goon
Living with his mom
It's Rorus the Goon
Edits for sport
It's Rorus the Goon
Reading all the cartoons
Actual weaboo Rorus the Goon

Now you're trapped in the room and all hope seems lost
Stuck there tragically by yourself
Stranded with a shitposter
Your creep silently through the takeout trash
Aha! In the distance a small window with the lock broke
Hope! You move stealthily towards it
But your foot! Stepped on a Sailor Moon fig!

Bleeding from your foot
(Quiet quiet)
Limping towards the window
(Quet quiet)
Now you're out of the basement
Sitting outside, it's Rorus the Goon
Crying by himself
(Rorus the Goon)
But he didn't hear you exit
(Rorus the Goon)
You're sneaking up behind him
Suckerpunch childman Rorus the Goon
Fighting with that louse, Rorus the Goon
Rarely leaves the house, Rorus the Goon
Give him a big wedgie
Safe at last from Rorus the Goon!

You limp from that dark house
Pain growing from your hurt foot
But you have won
You have beaten Rorus the Goon

Wait, he isn't gone! Rorus surprise!
There's food in his beard, and tears in his eyes!
But you recall from High School
Titty twist childman Rorus the Goon
A one-sided fight with Rorus the Goon
A really sad sight, this Rorus the Goon
You try to give a burn to Rorus the Goon
But pain is growing fast from your hurt foot

He's taking every blow, he goes for a choke
You counter his slow move, you call him a sad joke
He's running off to home now
You have just survived a brush with Rorus the Goon

His form fades in the distance, pitiable
You fall to your knees and catch your breath
You are finally safe from Rorus the Goon

I think it's supposed to be something like, "we *should* be stringing up ISIS members but the Obama tree isn't big enough to do the job", or something. But yeah it's pretty incoherent (as well as terribly drawn, but that's par for the course). Guaranteed that the tree's face is copied from an older cartoon and smudged up along the edges.

Could someone go into detail on why this Planned Parenthood thing is exploding? I know there's a video out that Fox News is trumpeting, but is it like that Acorn video where poo poo is taken out of context/edited and turned into PLANNED PARENTHOOD IS A NIGHTMARISH EVIL MONSTROSITY?

Well, you can tell by the way I cross my hatch,

And now it's all right. It's OK.

It is exactly that. They basically edited out everything that doesn't make Planned Parenthood look like monsters.

They did it more elegantly this time too. The Acorn takedown was actually a hilariously amateur hackjob of an edited video, it's shameful it got picked up. With this one, the key is that when the video was released they appended a minute and a half long section at the beginning telling people exactly what this was and what to "look for" in order to prime them to see what they wanted them to see. No one in the video specifically says "So, let's talk about selling baby organs for a profit."
