Trees

Cidu Bill on Apr 22nd 2011

Clearly cutting down trees is not ecologically wise; but “but not like this” implies some sort of apparent contradiction, as opposed to “this is an example of what not to do.”

Cop Out

Cidu Bill on Jan 25th 2011

I could understand both Holly’s and Val’s reactions here if Holly had said “a f****** cop-out.” But she didn’t. So I don’t.

Sunday Funnies: LOL April 11

Cidu Bill on Apr 11th 2010

Jennifer Williams sent this one in as a LOL:

but honestly it annoyed me when I first read it: usually, Alix displays a lack of sexual knowledge more appropriate for a child even younger than her ten years; what’s she doing making egg jokes now? Continue Reading »

Rithmatic

If this is what they’re teaching in middle school

then I can understand how Herb can be so abyssmally stupid

Of course, this doesn’t explain why Heart was learning differential calculus of whatever it was in second grade a few months back…

Pinny points out, by the way, that “the flash card reads ‘9×5′ in all three panels. Why is she asking for ‘5×8′ and even ‘5×9′?”

If you have to edit the point out of a strip…

Cidu Bill on Jul 8th 2009

… just toss it out and draw a new one.

I mean clearly, this was supposed to be “How do middle-aged people have sex?” “Reproduce” doesn’t make any sense, isn’t funny, and really doesn’t warrant Val’s coffee-spilling reaction.

School Days, School Days, Dear Old Snow and Flu Days…

Cidu Bill on May 27th 2009

Just wondering… Has anybody ever heard of “flu days”? Other than during this year’s Swine Flu Panic, that is. Seriously, can somebody explain why we’re treating this like Son of the Black Plague? Sure, it can be a dangerous illness — but so can “seasonal flu” (a term apparently nobody needed until this year; think “analog clock”), which so far has killed, no exaggeration, more than one thousand times as many Americans this year as Swine Flu has.New York City Health Commissioner Thomas Frieden said yesterday, “Our hearts go out to their families” of two New Yorkers who apparently died from Swine Flu last week, adding “as for everybody who died of other causes last week, hey, life’s a bitch.”

Good Night Nurse!

Cidu Bill on Feb 11th 2008

Hasn’t this familiar storyline passed its expiration date? A woman’s right to nurse in public has been written into law in some states, and in other states telling a woman to cease and desist has the potential to lead to a lawsuit. This is something every restaurant owner is aware of.
