Heh. Pretty funny. Now if we can keep up this pattern of every other Friday Funny actually being good that's a definite improvement over every third one being clever.

Nice art, too. Subtle and tasteful use of digital color.

Not bad.

Chris Muir has a good one today too, if that Pelosi show from yesterday is of interest.

I enjoyed the Muir piece, too. Thanks, John.

And that Lonewhacko novel is to die for. Literally.

OK, this is approaching funny. Movement in the right direction.

Is that picture of Obama racist?

No, he is driving something other than a Cadillac.

I have to agree. This is a step up. It definitely passes the Marmaduke Test by a lot and almost made it to the Laugh Out Loud Test.

Is Henry Payne incapable of drawing the Chrysler logo, or just the Dodge Ram head?

Maybe he had to spell it out for some readers?

At least these are starting to make sense.

Yea, for the girls.

Still not funny. But right on point. It's got a nice beat but you can't dance to it. Would have been better if "taxpayer" was already under the tire.

Is that picture of Obama racist?

Sure! I think he's a retarded douche, and I looked at it. QED.

|5.15.09 @ 9:36AM|#

Sadly, no. Fail.

Nobody should be linking to blogs here. Especially commerceul blogs. More especially anything mirroring SugarFree stories with or without permission.

not bad - solid B

Needs more cliches.

Obama should be driving a great big bus, with "Socialism Express" for a route sign. Pelosi and Waxman should be in the windows of the bus, playing "vroom, vroom" with toy Priuses. And Geithner should be pushing "Mr Bondholder" under the wheels, while Barney Frank steals his wallet.

To be clear, I intended "to die for" to mean that the writing is so bad, it's deadly.

Seeing as I'm the one who created LoneWacko: The Novel, I'll be the judge of that, not NutraSweet.

And this cartoon was...actually on point. Not particularly funny, but at least accurate.

Have you sent the cease and decist letter yet? What are you doing to protect your intellectual property?

|5.15.09 @ 11:18AM|#

It's a collaborative project. I want people to add to it and to host it. I'll deal with NutraSweet myself. (rubs hands)

He is probably ready for one of your hot oil massages right now. Good thinkin'.

Haven't seen anybody commenting where it is now, that Ninja chick place. Where else is it?

|5.15.09 @ 11:53AM|#

Aspartame has homesteaded the lonewacko novel, therefore it's his.

|5.15.09 @ 11:58AM|#

Where else is it?

Bronwyn put it on Google Docs too. It doesn't matter, because no one else is really contributing, which kind of eliminates the point.

Is that why it's so poorly written? I managed to slog through four paragraphs before concluding that it was some sort of high school project for the short-bus riders.

|5.15.09 @ 12:05PM|#

I'm still waiting for a royalty check.

It's poorly written to express LoneDipshit's thought patterns. Or else you just have no taste. I'll decide which later.

I love the way the elitist professional writers are dissing LoneWacko: The Novel without providing samples of their own fine work.

Except the UAW guy should have been drawn with a top hat, and smoking a cigar made of a $100 dollar bill.

Lonewacko: The Novel is the literary equivalent of the emotion you get when you beat a state-of-the-art supercomputer at Clue. The only reason (drink!) I haven't added anything is that the bar's been raised so high and I have writer's block. Besides, Epi's impromptu narration whenever LoneWacko shows up in a thread is good enough for me.

Ah, I see. It succeeds even when it fails!
But do more than six people care?

Fist of Etiquette|5.15.09 @ 3:48PM|#

I think you mixed up which one is doing the driving.

Sorry for the posting restrictions. I just don't want to bother with a load of moderation.

Where is the Google doc? I have heard of that but have never used it.
