    I get it, but it's not that funny.

    Why can't reason yank Gary Larson out of retirement?

    Why can't reason yank Gary Larson out of retirement?

    The contents of Larson's bedpan are probably funnier than this...

  3. Other Matt   18 years ago

    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?

  4. Reinmoose   18 years ago

    What about Bill Watterson? Holy crap, that would be sweet.

  5. Reinmoose   18 years ago

    OOoh OOoh! Or Stephan Pastis!

  6. adrian   18 years ago

    i laugh at most of them

  7. joe   18 years ago

    Defensive much, Other Matt?

    I am way into your head, aren't I?

  8. joe   18 years ago

    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.

  9. Other Matt   18 years ago

    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.

  10. joe   18 years ago

    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.

  11. Pro Libertate   18 years ago

    joe! Step back from the computer. Feel the Friday. Relax. Read Epictetus' Discourses. Okay, type at will.

  12. Taktix?   18 years ago

    joe and Other Matt,

    Why don't you two just fuck and get it over with...

  13. Alex   18 years ago

    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?

  15. Pro Libertate   18 years ago

    Your house, a pox on it and the other one.

  16. joe   18 years ago

    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.

  17. some guy   18 years ago

    Just when you thought H&R threads couldn't get any lower...

  18. highnumber   18 years ago

    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.

  19. Danny   18 years ago

    Why don't you two just fuck and get it over with...

    Honestly! The sexual tension is making it smell in here.

  20. GOB   18 years ago

    "The ol' reacharound!"

  21. Ventifact   18 years ago

    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.)

  22. Francesco Sinibaldi   18 years ago

    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...

    Francesco Sinibaldi

  23. John-David   18 years ago

    Actually, you guys missed a good Chip Bok cartoon this week.

  24. Jonathan Hohensee   18 years ago

    "The ol' reacharound!"
    I want you to get the sea-ward out of here.

  25. Lucile Bluth   18 years ago

    I'll leave when I'm good and ready.

  26. Nike Dunk Low   14 years ago

    is good
