Cidu Bill on Aug 3rd 2011

Okay, even accepting the fact that the kid’s making a Beverly Hillbillies reference… huh???

One Big Unhappy

Cidu Bill on Feb 1st 2011

Other than an apparent Pearls Before Swine shout-out, I don’t get it.

What’s up with this child’s question? Where did he pull the whole “people get paid to work for God but people work for the devil for free” business out of? If anything, I’d think that Lucifer’s people are the ones who are in it for the bucks.

Shopping Days

Cidu Bill on Dec 9th 2010

Not a CIDU… just wondering whether this falls into Geezer territory. Back in the day, when all stores were closed on Sundays, “days until Christmas” was different from “shopping days until Christmas.” Do people still refer to “shopping days before Christmas” (which presumably is now the same as “days until Christmas”)?

Judge Judy and Lemons

Cidu Bill on Jul 19th 2010

Elyrest: [July 14] “Arctic Circle & One Big Happy are going to Judge Judy. Two Lumps & Rubes are learning what to do with lemons. Now if we could just get Judge Judy to drink the tequila lemonade we’d all be better off.”

Mitchell Marks: This comic goes for the excremental pretty often anyway, but I thought this one was particularly disturbing.

I would say these two comics (both from today’s papers) define synchronicity:

I don’t think that word means what Cylene’s father thinks it means

Cidu Bill on Mar 15th 2010

Has anybody ever called somebody’s cooking derivative? What would that even mean? Is Cylene’s mother expected to create a never-before-seen dinner every night?

Teeth

Every Geezer Here Sent Me This One as a ”Geezer Strip”

Cidu Bill on Aug 18th 2009

A few weeks ago, my 16-year-old son came out of his room wearing an unbuttoned sweater-vest over a t-shirt. I greeted him with, “Hey, Ralphie boy!” and my wife laughed and he looked at us as if we were from Mars. But that’s okay, because we’re used to it.
