Is it Sunday already?? Well Goddamn! No time for extended preamble today; here’s a fresh, stinky batch of Sunday Funnies for you, my lovely and possibly sexually-attractive reader!
Garfield
The antics, hijinks, and goofabouts never stop with the Garfield clan. While the Jon Arbuckle is away, the pets come out to play, as the idiom goes. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I’m told, and what better display of flattery than America’s Favorite Yellow Dog and/or Orange Cat engaging in jovial, light-hearted mockeries! Oh what fun!
What do the drooling masses have to contribute today in the comments section??
Comicfan (C): “Last panel killed me. That was hilarious! LOL”
codycab: “Next I follow them while playing the Tuba. (Watch enough Family Guy and you’ll get it)”
Clarence: “Odie looks funny in the last panel”
Imagenesis: “The Garfield strip should be this funny more often!”
We’re all on the same page here! Garfield is super funny today! My Sunday couldn’t get any better than this unless I was dumped ass-first in a vat of delicious hydrofluoric acid!
Jump Start
I usually think Jump Start is ok; definitely in the 95th percentile of newspaper comics (which is already a pretty low bar to begin with), but once in a while they get wordy with it and they forget to include a punchline. And if the final panel is indeed supposed to be a punchline, which I have painstakingly surmised that it might be, they forgot to maintain contextual continuity by including the words “own two” again. Maybe because Robb “Stark” Armstrong was running out of room and needed to include plenty of space for Marcy’s eyeroll face. I don’t know. I suppose we’ll never know.
I thought today’s Jump Start would’ve brought out the astrology skepticism bunch, but I was wrong again!
allen011: “I kinda fit that description too, and I am not a taurus. I can make anything with my hands, nobody said the stuff I make actually has to work.”
Ellis97: “My fortune said that I will excel in education.”
preacherman: “Well, Charlene, I, too, am practical and can make anything with my two hands, and I’m a Leo.”
Cool stuff everyone, your comments are indispensable! Say hi to the other old-timers at the VFW hall for me.
Marmaduke
Oh look, another act of domestic terrorism by the most dangerous dog in the universe. After decades of absorbing awful Marmaduke strips, I’m convinced that the joke really is that Marmaduke is huge and out-of-control to the point where even the nonagenarian strip writers, and the characters themselves, agree that Marmaduke should be put down as gruesomely as possible for the good of humanity.
Perhaps I should raise my concerns to the OFFICIAL MARMADUKE EMAIL ADDRESS, doggonefunny42@aol.com! Up and running on a foundation of endless AOL free trail CDs that Marmaduke HQ has received in the mail for the last 29 years! AOL’s only remaining active customer! Besides my own parents, of course.
SHAKEDOWNVILLE: “She failed the ‘park’ing test hitting the tree.”
JudithStocker: “Marmaduke will train this student driver while he behaves like a lot of other drivers on the road. She will learn how to drive defensively this way.”
sarahbowl1: “Marm, stay away from those people. You could have gotten run over!”
No one is talking about how Marmaduke needs to be put to death in a very inhumane fashion? Odd. That should really be the ONLY thing people need to be talking about here.
