DO YOU READ THE FUNNIES

It’s been a while, but I saw this today.

GRANDMA HOW COULD YOU. There is poop in that soup.

While we are on the subject of newspaper comics, I thought I would share some excellent resources with you all.

First there is this guy,

and he explains Marmaduke for us because it can be kind of hard to understand sometimes, given how crappily it is drawn (look at those crazy ass lines).

He also does this thing with Ziggy,

which is full of insights into Ziggy’s whimsical world.

And then lastly there is this cool thing about Pluggers. Do you have Pluggers in your newspaper? I hope you do. The strip really bugs me, not only because the author draws fat redneck bears who are married to fat redneck chickens and insists on writing about them like they are humans, but also because he credits another “plugger” in each comic for the idea. What a horrible thing. That is like me asking stay at home moms for funny comics ideas. They would say like, DRAW A BABY AND THE MOM IS TIRED HAW HAW. And I would draw it and put a caption that says “You’re a Mom if you have a baby.”

Anyway, to get back on topic, I think this is an excellent guide to Pluggers,

It is comprehensive and delightful but requires you to refresh the page.
