Sunday January 25th

Alley Oop:



Presidential pardons? I know this is a comic about a time traveling caveman, but come on! You do those before the new guy comes in. Besides, the current lame joke to show that you get the politics is "I'm getting a bailout!"

And more dinosaur drawings. That green one looks more like a person, but then again, I can't draw a circle without a guide.

Oh, now that I've read more than the bold words in the second panel, I see this has to do with an ongoing storyline. And yet we return to the idiotic dinosaur scribbles!

I really wanted a follow-up with Oop's angry friends. Maybe next week?

Andy Capp:


A mother-in-law joke? Oh, well. At least they spread it out a bit so it doesn't seem quite like a daily stretched to a Sunday.

And who says anyone over the age of 18 looks stupid? There are much better adjectives out there. Wouldn't he have been stunned by her ugliness? A stupid look usually refers to an outfit or makeup and can be changed. This is a mother-in-law "joke," and all mother-in-laws are ugly, and that's not changing without some plastic surgery. They're fat and mean too!

I don't know, I'm not married, and my parents weren't married long enough to provide any real life examples (only 14 years, and most overseas away from family), and even the worst sitcom I've seen - maybe the Honeymooners, though it's good, and mostly...

Wait.

MIL "jokes" are about how domineering they are, they're rarely if ever about looks. They're about how to raise the kids. Are you feeding my kid (the spouse) right?

I don't know what I'm talking about anymore. Let me go back to my movie.
