Fashionably Late

It's Meekrat, and I actually remembered today was Monday! I remembered much earlier, but only had time to finish half the post before I had to go to work. Well, here's some review:

Rubes

I know the rhyme they're trying to evoke, but the joke doesn't work because all three children are different. Yes, one is a piece of silverware as opposed to a dish, but they're all different things when the parents are two spoons. If one parent had been a fork, it may have been different, but it's not. Also, wouldn't a fork/spoon pairing bring forth a spork, anyway?

Garfield

It's always nice to see Garfield not take place in one of its usual locations. It reminds me of the old cartoon, and when the strip was much better so many years ago.

F-Minus

You'd have to be tough, as every other animal would torment you endlessly. I also have no idea if that's a cat or dog.

Cow and Boy

Today, we have technology so advanced that we can use it for the most useless of tasks, like Twitter. Really, if you went back to even the seventies and told people there'd one day be the Internet and we'd use it for such foolishness, they'd be amazed and frightened. You'd likely end up in jail, or an asylum, as well.

B. C.

If you told them this strip was still running, though, they'd wonder why they should care. This is the first strip I can remember that didn't utilize one of its regular characters or tropes, featuring the raptors that have become so prevalent since the new guy took over.

For Heaven's Sake

For one, Jesus advocated that they shouldn't do eye for an eye and all that anymore. I looked it up! Second, the upside down dialog in the second panel is just dumb. No one is going to take that much effort to read such a lame punchline. I hate this strip.

Lio

On the flip side of God-ness, we have Lio staying true to character and not caring about any old thing. Good for you, Lio!

Well, that's it for today. Tune in tomorrow when there'll be more stuff!
