Oh, I don’t think this is so funny. To make a long story short, this happened to me when I lived in North Dakota. I thought my station wagon could crash through the ice and snow left by the snow plow the night before. Took me hours to dig my car out.

Derek just managed to make a FBoFW strip funny!

You can tell this is an old strip because it doesn’t use all 8 panels to lead up to a single poor pun.

What John should do is use the Global Warming feature of his SUV to melt the snow.

He forgot to mention that that baby also comes with a shovel for digging yourself out when all else fails. The real comedy is from how he’s crouching down as he shovels. He’s trying to hide so that they wife can’t see he’s shovelling. there is no way he’s going to give that *# the satisfaction of knowing he needed to shovel.

Knowing if the strip is a new one or an old one would actually be helpful for this FBoFW, because if it’s new (I don’t remember if I’ve seen today’s yet), it might well be referring to the ex, Rod, who’s now persona non grata. But if it’s an older one, it wouldn’t refer to him at all, because everything was peachy until just recently.

Anyway, I assume the joke is as you thought, Bill - that John thought his big ol’ truck thing was manly enough to get over the snow hump, when it fact it’s kind of lame.

Heh. I guess when you get to be my age, the feeling that you’ve forgotten something you read a couple of days ago doesn’t seem all that traumatic.

No, I understand why you feature old ones, and they should be posted if they make no sense whatsoever, even if they were seen at the time they were printed.

I just wish you could say something in the post, because I keep feeling like I missed a comic that day.

Just my $.02

Yes, the dead horse was indeed freshly beaten. What I meant was, 99% of the time, it doesn’t matter whether a comic is new or old, as long as it’s appropriate for the site.

Actually, I think the beating the dead horse was relatively recent. I haven’t been following the argyle sweater (which I really like most of the time) for all that long, but I think I remember this one.
