It goes without saying that having the black man sitting around and the white man represent the workforce is overtly racist, but other than that this one is a keeper. Good commentary. Good work.

+ Black man sitting up high like a monkey in a tree. Racist.
+ White man reading while black man throws writings in the ocean, insinuation is that the black man not only can't read but doesn't value an education. Racist.
+ Black man further away from water because he can't swim. Racist.
+ Platform is red as in redneck. Racist.
+ Large expanse of sky intended to make you think of space and therefore think of Black Holes. Racist.
+ Only white men care about jobs. Racist.
+ Anti-liberal bias. Double Racist.
+ Anti-Obama. Racist x Infinity.

That is like +8, or infinity depending on how you count infinity in this context.

It's been a long time since I was up early enough to comment on a Friday Funny, let alone a Bok version. I see that I've missed nothing, other than the timeliness with which to observe how terrible it is. Bok is like a Mary Worth cartoon with pretensions to contemporaneous significance, yet lacking even Mary Worth's track record of insipid banality mixed with crude soap operatic trivialities. Well done, Bok. You've given me, in my insomniac state, something to despise and detest. And that's something.

Bok could never hope to achieve the level of significance of the Mary Worth strip in which Mary advises a friend to commit suicide.

Mornin' Epi. Gotta ferry to catch. Later.
|7.16.10 @ 7:34AM|#
sage, can you give me your address? I'd like to crush your testicles in a vice, but I see that you're already emasculated by the fact that you have to take a ferry into Seattle every day. At least tell me which one so I can ridicule you for your transit choices. Bremerton? Bainbridge?

A secret lair in the Olympics?
|7.16.10 @ 9:21AM|#
I'm on the boat out of Kingston every morning. Sure, I'm not choking down diesel exhaust while speeding along at one miles an hour, but at least I have a yard.
I must say, though, that the ferry is a good thing to ride on during the summer. Lots to look at, IYKWIM.
Death Panelist|7.16.10 @ 10:04AM|#
I caught your meaning loud and clear on everything except what IYKWIM stands for.

|7.16.10 @ 10:40AM|#
How is riding a ferry emasculating? Is it because he's not driving? I avoid driving to work whenever I can because I work regular office hours and rush hour is soul-destroying and hard on your car.
|7.16.10 @ 11:09AM|#
Epi's statement doesn't bother me. Hey Epi, if you want to crush my testicles I'll be at the Kitsap judo club from 6 - 8:30 tonight. You're welcome to do it there. Bring your gi. Randori starts around 7:45. :)
|7.16.10 @ 11:22AM|#
You huge fairy. Judo is for Karate Kid wannabes and overcompensating schmucks. Do you think I have the time to go to Kitsap?
Seriously, though, email me, you idiot.
|7.16.10 @ 11:55AM|#
I emailed you. It's from my hotmail acct.

From your secret lair in the Olympics?
|7.16.10 @ 12:33PM|#
Sounds like a scam to me.
|7.16.10 @ 1:39PM|#
No, sage, a secret lair is never a scam. It's always cool.
|7.16.10 @ 2:02PM|#
If I get one you are invited to check it out. But it would be a secret.
|7.16.10 @ 2:07PM|#
I believe there's a Mount Olympus in the Olympics, if you're scouting locations.

I really love the vengeful righteous elementary school teacher vibe this knee jerk reaction is giving off. One of the kids in "Offshore drilling class" shit on the floor, so now all the other kids have to sit in the corner instead of having snack time. The tragedy/silver lining(for fans of Schadenfreude) is that this will make it that much harder for the Barackonator to prove he has wrenched this country out of the recession/depression of 2008-?.
Jordan Elliot|7.16.10 @ 7:25AM|#
"Barackonator"
I like it. Comic's ok too.

Henry Rollins|7.16.10 @ 12:19PM|#
Crackers? Why, I just love crackers—graham, saltine—I’m gonna get me a whole big bunch of crackers out of a box, or whatever, and I’m gonna squash ‘em on my face and let ‘em run off my chin! Semen is even better, though.
|7.16.10 @ 3:37PM|#
I hate crackers !! Unless they are in soup. Alright, maybe with some cheese on them too or those crackers with the cheese baked in.But that's it,I really hate em. oh ya Smores are the worst you got them crackers forcing that oppressed chocolate to melt with the marshmallow. Just ain't right.

The movie itself was hilarious. I didn't find it prophetic, but I laughed my ass off.
President Camacho is one of my favorite characters.
Fatty Bolger|7.16.10 @ 12:25PM|#
It definitely had its moments. The large screen TV crowded out with ads and showing "Ow My Balls!" was hilarious. Come to think of it, "Ow My Balls!" was somewhat prophetic - look at the success of Wipeout.
Butts Wagner|7.16.10 @ 2:13PM|#
America's Funniest Home Videos would be the zenith of "Ow My Balls!" in the present day.

There were a few of those calls for sure. However a wise tweeter got in a Fair Tax tweet, and she pretty much agreed with me.

Obama's advice is good. A guy from the Village People trolling around an oil rig offering boat jobs isn't going to get many takers, but windmills are full of fags.
James|7.16.10 @ 10:51AM|#
Can somebody explain the symbolism here? Why is the boat "jobs"? Why is Obama sitting on Drilling Ban II? What significance do the Court Rulings have in the meaning of the comic?
Brad Potts|7.16.10 @ 11:12AM|#
Not funny and not even accurate.
They specifically addressed the issues the judge had with the original ban, as they attempted to make the ban less arbitrary and actually focus it on safety issues, rather than making a political point.
Fatty Bolger|7.16.10 @ 12:28PM|#
Yeah, *that's* what was wrong with the ban.
|7.16.10 @ 12:28PM|#
I love how Obama is the one polluting the water and not the oil guy.
|7.16.10 @ 12:53PM|#
Bok can re-use this, later: just draw little George Washingtons on the pieces of paper, and turn Obama into Bernanke. And write "no" (jobs) on the boat.
