Comment of the Week

My little friend is not so little anymore, Toby! In fact, she's quite large! Enormous, in fact! Nine foot six and getting taller by the day! It's actually quite alarming! We're getting into I'm a Virgo territory here! Did you watch that miniseries, by the way? It was on Amazon Prime a couple of years ago! Jharrel Jerome is a treasure! Some great performances by Elijah Wood and Walton Goggins as well, which reminds me that I need to start my Justified rewatch. Oh, Margo Martindale is another treasure, especially as a voice in BoJack Horseman. Anyway, Olive is a giant, is the point I'm trying to make.

The niceness continues

Zits, 1/2/05

In keeping with my quest to say nice things about the Sun’s new comics in their first appearance in this forum, I present to you my favorite comics sound effect of 2005 so far. Behold, GXXXKK!! Zits is not held back by the tyranny of vowels.

I also like the way that Papa Zits (or whatever his name is) is extending an index finger towards the tree-shredder. Is he giving it a gentle push into the maw of the machine? Or is he just pointing and saying, “Ha! It said GXXXKK!!“

It’s like this joke was reincarnated

OK, never mind the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles — what’s the most recent year in which a joke about Shirley MacLaine’s belief in reincarnation would have been funny?

Hah! Trick question. The correct answer is never.
