A Friday Without A Boss

As you may have heard, Bryce is gone today, so you get me instead. I hope you are enjoying your Friday the 13th as much as I am. I walked under a ladder, behind a black cat, and shattered a mirror this morning. But it's okay because I knocked on some wood and threw some salt over my shoulder.

Isn't weird how our supposedly religious culture has all these stupid superstitions that go against everything modern religion teaches?

Cow & Boy 2/13/09 Ah, yes. I remember when all we had to fear was being melted by radiation and being taken over by the Reds. Those were the days.


Flo & Friends 2/13/09
Who here really believes that Friday the 13th is a day when bad things happen? How about 7 years of bad luck after breaking a mirror?

Well, if any of you said yes to those questions let me tell you this: you are an idiot. Bad things happen every day, a plane crashed last night. Does that mean that Thursday the 12th is an unlucky day? No, it means that something shitty happened, get over it.

As for mirrors, I don't know why you would think that. Mirrors break all the time and we're not all having bad luck. Wait, maybe that's why the economy sucks, the Wallstreet guys were breaking mirrors for fun and now we're all screwed for 7 years!


Graffiti 2/13/09
This is actually a good question. I don't have an answer except that it is the time when most everybody is asleep.



Ferd'nand 2/13/09
So the joke is that the bum is pissed that Ferd'nand gave him a small amount of money before getting into a private car. I would say the bum has no right to be angry, he should be glad Ferd'nand didn't kick him like most rich people would.



Rip Haywire 2/13/09

I had such high hopes for this strip when it first started. But is seems to have gone into a tailspin of lame jokes, like just about every other comic strip.




I do enjoy the LEAP! sound effect. It's as if the guy is screaming it as he jumps.
