The Silent Hat Stangler

Enjoy these fresh picked comic strips and the even fresher comments that go with them.

Unless you have something better to do.

And don't forget to let me know if you want an invite to my Marmaduke blog.

Ferd'nand 1/12/10

Ferd'nand wears his hat to bed? That just adds a whole new level of insanity to his personality. So far we have: is a mute, has a terrible mustache, is constantly changing jobs, and wears hat at all times.

I think it's safe to say that Ferd'nand could be the next major serial killer in the United States.

Herb and Jamaal 1/12/10

What is happening in the last panel? It looks like Herb is just saying help to nobody. I suppose it's possible that he's using the voice dialing function on his phone, but that would just be stupid, and that would be new ground for Herb and Jamaal.

Except for the stupid part.

Flight Deck 1/12/10

Nothing about this makes any sense.

Also, it's just called The Newshour now, Jim Lehrer took his name off it. He's still the anchor, he just isn't in the title anymore, don't ask me why.



The Dinette Set 1/12/10

This is the least cluttered The Dinette Set I have ever seen. It still isn't funny, but at least I can tell what is happening.

You Don't Need Testicles or Ovaries

Here's that extra post I promised you. And it's at a reasonable time for my North American audience. Not so much for other parts of the world, but since they don't visit much it's their own damn fault.


Flight Deck 9/17/09There is no comparison. Curtis Jackson may be a boiling pot of testosterone fueled stupid, but he isn't a complete asshole all the time for no reason, as Kanye is.

Curtis makes better music too. I'd rather listen to gangsta rap than anything that Kanye has ever touched.



Grand Avenue 9/17/09
Grand Avenue has spent all week having it's characters declaring why a dog's life is great followed by the dog's rebuttals. Baths, food, fur, they've all been touched on. And it hasn't been funny in the least. Probably because many dogs live better lives than quite a few humans. They're well fed, have consistent shelter, and usually have a loving family to go along with those things.

Sure, we cut off their testicles and ovaries but it's not like they really need them. How many people starving in Africa or Asia or even in the US do you think would trade a vasectomy or even an orchidectomy (see Word of the Day below) for a lifetime of food and shelter and love?



The Meaning of Lila 9/17/09
I probably should just stay out of this one. As a male, almost anything I could say would get me in trouble.

I will say this: what the hell? Is Lila a time-traveling transplant from the 1950's?



Herb & Jamaal 9/17/09
That would mean...

Oh.

Oh, no.

No, no, no......NO!!!

The Biggest Post in the World

A Super-Hugely Gigantic Post for you today. Enjoy.


Speed Bump 3/30/09
Another crappy wordplay. Comic strips would be lost without them, as seen here.




The Barn 3/30/09
Now here's a wordplay I can get behind.

Side note: any hockey franchise would love to have a cow on its team. Imagine how much damage a cow could dish out on the ice. Sweetness.



Secret Asian Man 3/30/09
Sadly this is how almost everyone reacts when asked to help with volunteer work. Except all those awesome people that went to help fill sandbags in Fargo last week. Those people are cool.



Nancy 3/30/09
This is not a question for a horrible comic strip. It's not even a question for a good comic strip. This is a question for those among us that have way to much f***ing time and can afford to waste it debating nothing with no one.



Monty 3/30/09
Time travel should never be used for anything, ever. So this guy went back and is thought to be Lincoln's assassin. What happened to Booth? Time travel can never work because there is no way to predict all the variables of what will change simply because there is one more person in that time period than there should be.

Side note: Don't ruminate on time travel for more than a few minutes or you will bleed from the nose.


Luann 3/30/09
Luann - the soft-core porn of the comics page.


Grand Avenue 3/30/09
Why is there always this kid in class? It doesn't even matter what grade level you're talking about, there is always an overachiever that does way more than needed.

If you can't tell, I'm not one of those people. Although I possess an extremely high IQ, I hate to do more than is required. This is why I have yet to complete one semester of community college even though I have attempted it three times.

Two more months and I'll be done with a whole, entire year, so I'm nearly there.


Free Range 3/30/09
Just off panel there is a pedophilic serial killer.

Clearly they did not think this joke through.



Flight Deck 3/30/09
Is that what widows really talk about? And how f***ed in the head do you have to be to still blame stuff on your husband 8 years after he dies?

This panel just supports the stereotype that married women are the bitchiest things in the world.

I do not think that, just in case you were wondering.



Agnes 3/30/09
In a related story, I've been pre-approved for a loan, 13 credit cards, and I may have won $1 million.

Did that make you laugh? It shouldn't, this joke is getting pretty old.


Ten, count'em, ten comics today. I hope you're happy now because this big a post doesn't come around very often.
