What's more fun?

Two slide presentation themed comics. These appeared back to back on my Chron.com comics page.


Granny gets all Zen on Billy's ass.
What's more fun than watching a bunch of little kids stuttering off-key through the holiday classics? Wrist slashing, fingernail removal, water boarding, watching a PowerPoint presentation presented by someone who just reads the damn slides, bikini waxing, listening to Mannheim Steamroller's non-Christmas music,

reading Mary Worth comics, writing little critiques of Mary Worth comics on an obscure blog, reading other blogs that skewer Mary Worth, making YouTube videos of Mary Worth, watching live action productions of Mary Worth comics, trying to figure out the floor plan of spaces in Mary Worth comics, and this list could go on.

One of several Christmas annoyances: Sleigh only has one syllable. Remember that when singing, Jingle Bells. It is even more annoying when children sing sleigh as a two syllable word.

Back to Mary Worth - only one fish on the wall but bigger. Are the fish eating each other? Maybe the fish triggers a secret door in the wall. The couple from yesterday knew about it and now the waiter heads for the wall.

Pick up after your dog

Mary Worth follows the condo rules but completely ignores the local leash laws. Mary rules Charterstone and Santa Royale, leash laws do not apply to her. I bet she won't go out there and pick up after Chester.

Oh my God. I received a vision of the upcoming storyline! Mary Worth learns a painful lesson about picking up after your dog after a child of a Charterstone resident spends a month in a coma after the child injures his/her head after slipping on one of Chester's droppings that Mary neglected to pick up. See Mary wracked with guilt. See Mary give advice about cleaning up after your dog in the form of a sickening platitude. See Dr Jeff Cory's heroic doctor skills bring that child out of a coma. See Mary express so much self-satisfaction with her decision to force Dr. Cory to leave Vietnam that she explodes into a supernova of self-congratulation so powerful that it collapses in on itself and sucks all of Charterstone and Santa Royale into its black hole.

It would be funnier if all the residents of Charterstone stage an intervention to get Mary to pick up after her dog. All of them say in unison: "Mary, we are tired of slipping in dog shit!"

Hey, King Features! If Karen Moy has to leave please consider the above my resume.


Huh?
What? Can we write comics that make sense?

Contents settle during shipping. Why did a man send this in?
