Ring

Leaving the cell phone inside a loaf of bread after making a sandwich… is this actually something somebody’s ever done? What’s the joke here?

In Case You Think Scott and Borgman Made This Up

Cidu Bill on May 25th 2010

This actually does reflect teenager logic: phone calls take longer to deal with and can easily sit in voice mail for long periods of time. Texts get more immediate attention.

Of course that leaves us with the “then what’s the joke?” problem…

Even *I* know this is so 2008

No way Jeremy sends out texts: he issues a mass invitation over Facebook, and his friends RSVP right online. Of course he’d probably still be using his phone to access his Facebook account.

Going Balmy

Three people sent me this one for the Ewww Files, so clearly I’m missing something. What’s the joke and what is that all over Jeremy’s face? Has somebody been using the lip balm on their armpits?

Tall

Cidu Bill on Mar 2nd 2010

Okay, seriously, would anybody over the age of five ask a question this moronic? To his girlfriend’s father, no less? Why not go all the way and ask Sara why her nose is bigger than her bustline?

And what’s with Mr. Toomey’s response? Overcompensation? And honestly, a PhD in engineering isn’t chopped liver, but it’s not as if he invented cold fusion or anything. He seems to think his accomplishments are absolutely awe-inspiring.

And the point here is what, that Jeremy hasn’t accomplished as much as he has? The kid just turned 16.

Heat Source

Okay, I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’d have my 16-year-old and his heat source out of there so fast it would make their heads spin.

… Little Jeremy is prosecuted for distributing child pornography for posting a video of Little Sarah’s naked behind (it would have been a lot worse if either of them had genitalia), and will be forced to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life

Quite a few people wrote to say they were unsettled by this one.

Timothy Carignan: Sure, they’re trying to copy the innocent “Love Is” comic. However, Jeremy and his girlfriend are horny teenagers, and now they’re in the comics naked?

You know, I really have to agree with Jeremy on this one: As a wise man once said, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”

Personally, if I thought my son wasn’t cautious and focused, I wouldn’t be rooting for him to pass his driver’s test.

Is there any particular reason an iPod would work better than, say, a small rock? Seriously, I need to know this: I have a 16-year-old who doesn’t do mornings, who has to be woken up at 5:30 for school, and it starts up again in only a few weeks.

Cidu Bill on Jun 26th 2009

Several people sent me this Zits comic for the LOL list:talkingchicken.gif
 
An homage, of course, to a classic 80-year-old gag: Imagine Jeremy and Pierce as old New York Jews, and the chicken as a dog.
First Man: “A talking dog?”

Second Man: “Who’s the greatest ballplayer in America?”

Dog: “Ruth! Ruth!”

First Man (walking away): “Very funny.”

Dog: “Gehrig??”

Just a Spoonful of High-Fructose Corn Syrup

Cidu Bill on Mar 10th 2009

cornsyrup.jpg
Okay, is there anybody (outside of those with a financial interest in the product) who’s actually thankful for drinks sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup? I can accept the fact that some people apparently can’t tell the difference between sugar and HFCS; but to be thankful for it??
 
I thought the rest of Jeremy’s blessing was, well, kind of sweet.

Did the Syndicate Say No to Nu?

Cidu Bill on Feb 25th 2009

This strip, which seemed to be the lead-in to a storyline, was followed by a week of repeats. Anybody know whether there was supposed to be a week-long sequence about the abstinence lecture, and the syndicate just said no?
