Evil Mastermind posted:Working Daze is comedically bankrupt. I know that this is some straight-up neolithic humour, I'm too poor to buy clothes so I'm going wear a barrel, because barrels are cheap and plentiful, but I had a whim to go see how much a barrel costs in this day and age. So, it turns it that most barrels these days are made for the wine or whiskey industries, and those are oak, so a new barrel is going to cost you anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand. You can, however, buy used wine barrels, and that'll run you something in the $60-$100 range. So I'm uncertain of the money saving going on here.

Potsticker posted:Even though sometimes the references seem a bit impenetrable, this comic continues to enchant me. When earwig bait is discussed among the earwigs it pretty clearly seems to be a direct substitution for alcohol. An earlier strip's joke was a lady earwig singing "lips that have touched earwig bait shall never touch mine," and was a joke because it played off the women's temperance movement slogan "lips that have touched liquor shall never touch ours." Female activists were a big part of the prohibition movement (prohibition of course being in full swing at the time of Dok's Dippy Duck) because they believed banning alcohol would reduce domestic violence. As I recall. A few strips have focused the gag around "marathons," like one where the duck asks a wheelchair-bound woman what's up and she says "marathon," and one where they see a rich buddy with a nice car that he got "selling foot lotion to marathoners." In the good times of the 1920s a variety of wild fads swept the country, typically originating at universities, including stuff like stuffing lots of people into phonebooths, swallowing goldfish, and, as referenced in Dok's, marathon dancing sessions. Again, as I recall. There was also one where the duck plays sweet on a lady duck dressed in Egyptian styles. That relates to the opening of King Tut's tomb, which set off its own Egypt fad/craze across the country. Apologies if you knew all of this but I find it so interesting to see an artifact of the times reflect the history books and lectures. Historical comics are the best thing in this thread because they give us real insight into the past.

The syndicate (United Features Syndicate) claimed that little jingle was written by famous bandleader Vincent Lopez, but I'd like to think a guy with some musical credibility would've come up with something a little further away from Turkey In The Straw.
