I get it, but it's not that funny.
Why can't reason yank Gary Larson out of retirement?

The contents of Larson's bedpan are probably funnier than

Hey, wait a minute, they're making the "O" in Obama darker than it is in real life. It must be racist. joe, where are you when we need you?
When people who passionately object to denunciations of racism feel the need to pre-empt me, that's when I know I'm doing something right.
No, joe, I have no desire whatsoever to preempt you, and I'm not
defensive at all, I'm encouraging you to go after them. The rat
bastards are racist, I tell ya, racist! Anything that we could
possibly define as racist even if the definition has to change to
make it so is joe world, I'm encouraging you to show yourself for
what you are.
Unfortunately I have to get back to work now and can't play with
you today. You go right ahead and smugly hate yourself for being
white without me.
That must be why you bring up the subject before I've even
thought of writing anything about it.
Because you have no desire to pre-empt me.
BTW, since I bitch slapped you a couple times, you haven't written
any racist horseshit. Funny how that works.
joe! Step back from the computer. Feel the Friday. Relax. Read Epictetus' Discourses. Okay, type at will.
I bet Joe's the kinda guy that would fuck a guy in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a reach around.

Joe's a republican now?
Joe's a republican now?
Sure. Watch this:
I can do that, and not be gay, because you're only gay if you let a
guy do it you.
See? A Republican.
Other Matt,
joe may be an anti freedom, high taxing, commie loving, nanny
stating, war mongering, jesus loving, petrified pooh wearing, slug
salting, wife beating, kite flying, high fiving, book reading
liberal Red Sox fan, but you - you have a serious problem.
I'm serious about that. Stop reading his comments if they bother
you so much. Stop addressing him in your comments. Just drop it.
It's creepy, and from nearly everyone else's perspective, you come
across as a total nutbag.
Why don't you two just fuck and get it over
with...
Honestly! The sexual tension is making it smell in here.
But yeah, O-Matt, chill. To be precise, I don't think Matt "preempted" joe here because he raised a clearly empty race issue and no substantial race issue exists in this thread. But still, he's chasing a tail he himself injected into the thread. (Umm, hurray for strained metaphors.)
Sadness and melodies.
Usually, when
the sound of
a pine-wood
touches a care and
a beautiful darkness,
I hear a picture
and a fallen desire,
and here, in my
childhood, a flower
escapes...
