“I’m not saying you should use ‘Yakety Sax’ to score today’s Mary Worth, I’m just saying no dramatic tension is lost by doing so.” –Irrischano
And enjoy these runners up too!
“If ice cream cones are $5, that’s probably a $20 hot dog the seagull is making off with.” –Matthew
“’Skeetos sounds like a snack chip. Warning: contains insects and possibly human blood.” –nescio
“Today’s Mary Worth should win a prize for the least erotic mixed pole-dancing entry, ever.” –Fraser
“Is Spider-Man considered a last responder?” –Dood
“This shipwreck is Wilbur’s fault, because he decided to sample fresh Italian vegetables and exotic fish dishes. You’ve angered the Sandwich Gods, Wilbur, and now you must face their oven-toasted wrath!” –Perky Bird
“‘Sam, do you like baseball?’ ‘Yeah, I think we own the Arizona Diamondbacks and maybe the Orioles.'” –Doctor Handsome
“I have no idea what is going on in Rex’s life these days, but judging from that unique ceiling tile, I would guess that he’s talking on a cell phone to a man standing on the other side of the room he’s in. Why, you might ask? Because talking face-to-face is what poor people do.” –pugfuggly
“Lu Ann is taken to her happy place. ‘Pale blue walls, mustard colored trim. Yes! This feels so right.'” –Kwazzymodo
“I see the pendulum in Apartment 3-G has swung from ‘mind-bogglingly insane’ to ‘incomprehensibly dull.'” –TheDiva

Guys, just a very quick thank you to everyone who contributed to my Kickstarter. I managed to blow through my goal and am really overwhelmed by everyone’s support. Now I guess I have a novel to write! Stay tuned!
But you don’t have to wait any longer for this week’s comment of the week!
“J. Jonah Jameson’s look of unrestrained glee is quite possibly the best thing ever. You can almost hear him shouting insanity in the background. ‘Yes, YES! Restrain this son of a bitch! Rough him up! Rip his goddamn arms off a little more! MAKE MORE RANDOM REFERENCES TO PLAYS, OH MY GOD YES'” –Tophat
Or for the runners up! Very funny
“So Weirdly didn’t invent a time machine. Instead, all he did was invent a fucking flying car.” –Scott P.
“But no, Weirdly in his awesome sneakers, steam-punk goggles, stylin’ stash and top-hat has to put up with douchemaster Slylock Fox, whose rudimentary knowledge of basic animal functions allow him to (probably literally) ferret out the idiotic petty criminals in his world who don’t know enough about their own anatomy and basic functionality to even conjure a semi-plausible alibi.” –geekwhisperer
“‘What happened to all that conflict?’ ‘Who knows? It melted away.’ Oh, man. That is just … that is a satisfying plot resolution. Josh, I hope you’re taking good notes.” –teddytoad
“Carolingian-era restauranteurs have a lot to learn about maximizing profit-per-square-foot.” –DaveyK
“Now that the Batman trilogy is concluded I believe it is time for Mark Trail to introduce us to Sheepman Begins.” –Shadow of the Hedgehog
“I know that newspaper deadlines make it difficult to make timely, relevant jokes about current events, but I still feel that Brad Anderson could have predicted when Election Day would occur.” –AndyL
“Who’d bug us at 8 AM? Don’t they know only people with jobs are up at this hour?” –Doctor Handsome
