Shorter than usual

Fairly short today, folks. Sometimes the funnies just aren't that funny to mock.

Better Half, 7/30/09

The best way to spice up a marriage is cannibalism, and I suppose that the best spice for cannibalism is just barbecuing human flesh. On a side note, did you know that this couple's last name is Parker? That's three comic strips with protagonists with the surname Parker. (The other two are Peter and Mary Jane Parker from Spider-Man and the Parkers from Judge Parker. You can find commentary for both of them at the Meekrat Entertainment Group, amazingly enough.)

Mother Goose and Grimm, 7/30/09

Look at that thing in the background, behind the jerky looking guy in the "Wash U" shirt. What is that thing supposed to be? It looks sort of like a castle, or perhaps the front of a building, but there's nothing beyond the door. Is it just some sort of elaborate arch, out in the middle of nothing? Why even put something like that in the strip? They could have just left it out and put another tree there, and there'd be no cause for this confusion. Also, watch out for Speed Racer. He's a demon, and he's going to be chasing after SOMEONE.

Tina's Groove, 7/30/09

If he was Amish, he wouldn't be dating you. I'm pretty sure they have rules against Amish people establishing romantic relationships with those who aren't Amish. Unless he's going through that thing that some Amish people go through where they live outside the Amish community for a little while, in which case that guy's pretty far gone and I don't think he'll be going back. In which case, he's not Amish anymore, but formerly Amish. Yes, I am lacking content and things to say about the strips I picked out, so I am stretching these commentaries out as far as I can.

My Cage, 7/30/09

Is that something you can actually get for your phone? The outgoing ring-tone thing? If it is, I have a new goal for what I want to get with my next phone.
