Ouija boards, strange medical tests, and those annoying horn things
Greetings. I'm new around these parts. My name's Ben Carlsen, AKA Arkholt, AKA the guy who also does the comic strip blog The Daily Panel as well as the new web comic The Bird Feeder, bringing you some comic blurbs, in no particular order.
Ollie and Quentin:
This one's just sad, for two reasons: first, the worm got smashed by the seat flipping up, and second, the bird actually has no way of following the rules. His legs are not long enough for his feet to not be on the seat. How these animals got into the theater in the first place is beyond me as well.
My Cage:
Wait a second here. Why is this guy's heart inside his head? Shouldn't it be in his chest? Then again, perhaps his head IS in his chest, so his heart can be inside it and still be in the right place. Wow, this guy's anatomy sure is messed up.
Curtis:
AAAA!! Curtis' dad will know whatever he does, because he speaks with the dead! You have much to fear, young Curtis! Your father is a necromancer!
Heathcliff:
Wow. I didn't know doctors had a test to determine that. I'll have to make an appointment tomorrow to find out what I am. With my luck, though, it's just something that vets are able to do, with their specialized animal tools. No way my health insurance covers that.
Pickles:
I post this one only because I can also see it as a Pluggers strip. "Google for Pluggers: ask your wife."
Crock:
This type of thing was funny back in 1920, but not anymore. Strips had better art back then, too, so it made up for the fact that it was never actually funny to begin with. I mean, seriously, can't you come up with a funnier way for them to make a bridge? Have three of the guys span the gap and hold on to each others' feet at least. That's about as old as this joke, but it doesn't look as desperate.
Working Daze:
Almost as annoying as the actual vuvuzelas themselves are all the annoying comic strips about them that I keep seeing. Is their goal to make sure that the annoyance of the vuvuzela reaches even the people who haven't been watching the World Cup, such as myself? If so, it has worked. You can stop now.

I don't think Worm got smashed. I think he got thrown very high up in the air (hence why Duck and the guy next to Worm are both looking up).
Either way. Poor Worm.
Thank you Karen.
