And the idiot dad's lack of legs in the second panel. I have edited this post four times because I keep noticing poo poo in this god forsaken trash comic. I have no idea what you mean, Double Amputee Hover Family (or "The Smirksons" as we fans call it) has always been my favorite comic strip!

The lighter fluid smells delicious? He knows that she will think that? A comic about ubiquitous solvent abuse in suburban America. That's why she's always smiling inanely.

It's just one of dozens of the same bland, zero-effort, family slice-of-life strips that infest comics sections today, like Stone Soup or Grand Avenue. I'm just amazed that every single day it presents the format of a four-panel joke but completely fails to write any actual jokes. I don't mean that the jokes are unfunny, I mean that if you aren't primed to read the strip as a gag strip, you would never recognize the dialogue as humor.

The Classic Dinette Set knows the price of comfort. Working Daze has the loving balls to pull a "nerds and their phones" gag. Super-Fun-Pak-Comix is just a Buzzfeed list.

Yes, they did. In fact, I'm pretty sure that's part of the reason she wanted to go to camp, though I'm not going back to check. I suspect the breakup had the traditional "let's stay friends" clause, though, and he's young enough not to realize this means exactly jack poo poo in a long distance relationship.

Am I crazy, or is Dave's Delicatessen the inspiration for Bob's Burgers? At first I thought it was just a coincidence and I was reading too much into the similar name and character design, but every single strip seems like it could be a joke in the show. They even had an episode where somebody involved in organized crime befriended Bob and started intimidating all his customers while Bob was too scared to ask him to stop. Anyway, have a huge wall of Catch-up Comix. Wow, I really wasn't expecting that callback. Ballard Street Looks like Larry's perfectly fine with power tools. The problem is that Larry is bad when holding power tools.

Thanks to Comics Kingdom's and my Internet connection's combined uncanny ability to start eating rear end right when I'm about to start posting my classic comics, I'm a bit behind! This post won't catch us up completely, but I don't want to post *too* big of a wall of comics. This will get us most of the way there, anyway. Phantom Classic Radio Patrol Rip Kirby Big Ben Bolt I like how Uncle Jim's been taking money to help fix games for years and Midge fought Jess Whitecap with everything he had (including actually getting beat up in an alley) and only reluctantly gave in tonight, after going to his trusted mentor for help and Uncle Jim literally told him to go ahead and cheat, and this is how Jim describes it. "Yep, Midge and I are a couple of crooks! Totally alike in our crapulence! Neither one of us more of a shithead than the other, especially me!"
