Of Human Bondage

Boomerangs

Pun alert! And it involves the name of the author of a nearly 100 year old book!  With dry humor like this, why isn't Boomerangs still pumping out new strips?

Bound and Gaged

I don't believe inmates are allowed cell phones and other such electronics, so most likely what the man on the floor has in his hand is a bar of soap carved into the shape of an iPhone—carved for the express purpose of annoying his cell mate with this inane pun.  Mission accomplished.  Though he should be careful, lest he wind up with those 4 bars shoved somewhere unpleasant.

Broom Hilda

What's wrong with Broom Hilda flying on her broomstick?  She is a a witch with magical powers after all.  She should be able to save all kinds in travel expenses.

Jump Start

Looks like the food truck craze has finally found its way to the comics page.  Hmm... I'm a bit hungry, I could go for some "Mobile Gourmet Food" right about now.

Botox and Snaggleteeth

Betty

So there are no smile lines on the boss's face even while she is in the act of smiling? That is scary. That's a lot of botox.

Big Nate

Speaking of scary body parts, here is Nate's short, tubby friend with an exploding nose. That isn't his nose and freckles are you are seeing—it's his right ear and the scarred remains of his once proud proboscus.

Big Top

Ug. This kind of rampant animal sexuality is usually reserved for The Grizzwells. Disturbing.

Freshly Squeezed

I don't know about you, but I find broken families to be HILARIOUS.

Jump Start

It seems like Joe is implying that his "Guy Talk" with Clarence usually devolves into Clarence revealing his man-crushes on various snaggletoothed celebrities. What I want to know is if Clarence is so asexual that he only takes pleasure in the prospect of such a big job, or if he really has some weird crooked-tooth fetish where is career is just a means of putting him into contact with his perverse desires. Either way, I think it's time Joe found somebody new to hang out with.

The Grizzwells

Ah, finally some implied violence from a strip about a bear that hangs out with various edible forest critters. I think the bear is much too lazy to act on his urge to nibble on the insides of his porcupine companion; though just to be safe, Pierpont might want to go into hiding for a few days.

When God Smote Adam

Greetings, readers. Happy Wednesday! Time for some comics review!

Adam@Home

The heavy-lidded seriousness of the worker's face in panel three implies that God really must smite people regularly in this supermarket. Either that, or this man has previously endured God's wrath and now his face is paralyzed.

It looks like Adam is going to be laid out for a couple weeks; he's not going to able to work or help around the house. Wait. He doesn't do those things anyway. So really nothing changes.

The Argyle Sweater

Ah, the sad life of the Pillsbury DoughBoy: nobody wants to send him a message, just an endless series of pokes.

F Minus

Um... okay. This is rather strange even by F Minus standards.

Jump Start

JoJo seems rather young to have completely given up on life. But I guess he has. He is now just a vacant, empty shell of a person with no passions or interests.

Luann

Haha! It's funny because women make men feel inadequate. What a riot!

Its funny because modern things

Sorry about the late post guys. Times a wasting lets get going:



Ugh there is so much to dislike about this one strip. The joke itself is weak but it becomes even weaker due to the fox/weasel thing griping about how change is bad. Wouldnt this joke work better without him?


Momma is usually puzzling but not in this way. Why would anyone like hearing typing when they eat? And why would people be on their laptops in a fancy restaurant? I think the artist just wanted to make a modern joke.


I know this was touched upon yesterday but I still cant believe they used this made up law for not one but two lame jokes

Luckly I found two great comics that made me smile and didnt resort to trying to make a technology joke

Very Far Side-esque and funny although I would have put Death on a subway or something instead.


Pearls is making fun of Pluggers? I hope there will be more than one strip of this.
