    Why'd he draw our house?

  2. Nooge   16 years ago

    Needs a pterodactyl.

  3. Team America   16 years ago

    Wow, this hurts.

    Anybody have some Payne-killers?

  4. Art-P.O.G.   16 years ago

    Needs a pterodactyl.

    Needs a crying Lady Liberty.

  5. Seer   16 years ago

    What is this, I don't even...

  6. High Every Body   16 years ago

    Ohhhh k.

    For something actually funny from yesterday: http://www.daybydaycartoon.com/2009/04/09/

  7. ed   16 years ago

    Ouch. I be needin' some Payne relief.

  8. Spoonman   16 years ago

    Is that the Federal Reserve? Mount Vernon? That government building in Romania that's the heaviest in the world?

  9. Taktix?   16 years ago

    Thud...

  10. Team America   16 years ago

    Friday Funnies are a Payne-in-the-ass,

  11. Team America   16 years ago

    Payne-as-you-go?

  12. Jordan   16 years ago

    As bad as the Friday Funnies are, the comments section is always ten times worse. We get it: you don't like the cartoon. You're so edgy.

  13. brotherben   16 years ago

    Have ya'll seen the new GM ads? They say that if you buy a new car and then lose your job, they will make your payments for a while to hope you out.

  14. Jordan   16 years ago

    Have ya'll seen the new GM ads? They say that if you buy a new car and then lose your job, they will make your payments for a while to hope you out.

    Yeah, the desperation comes right through the radio. "Please for the love of God, buy our cars! We can't even give these pieces of shit away!" Fuck GM.

  15. Art-P.O.G.   16 years ago

    We get it: you don't like the cartoon. You're so edgy.

    Come now, Jordan. Many of us are, in addition to being critics, artists and writers ourselves. I include myself in this group.

    This puts many of us in the unique position of understanding the difficulty of the craft, you curmudgeon.

  16. Jordan   16 years ago

    This puts many of us in the unique position of understanding the difficulty of the craft, you curmudgeon.

    Whatever. Most of the comments are practically carbon copies of each other, with the original one being along the lines of "Friday Funnies? More like Friday Unfunnies! Am I right guys?"

  17. phalkor   16 years ago

    "Friday Funnies? More like Friday Unfunnies! Am I right guys?"

    LOL! Jordan you are so right! Thank you for keeping the Friday Funny discourse alive.

  18. dhex   16 years ago

    "Whatever. Most of the comments are practically carbon copies of each other, with the original one being along the lines of "Friday Funnies? More like Friday Unfunnies! Am I right guys?""

    despite this, it's still funnier than the friday funnies.

    ok a real joke for once:

    the friday funnies walk into a bar. the bartender says "what is this supposed to be, some kinda joke?" and the friday funnies say "no, it's community service" and proceeds to disembowel itself, guts flowing all over the floor like so many unfunny sausages.

  19. JW Gacy   16 years ago

    ART-P.O.G. wins the pretentious fop award. I'd give him a round of applause, but I'd have to put down my snifter of brandy.

  20. Heinrich Schmerz   16 years ago

    @Jordon

    Criticizing bad puns will make jor don' fall off.

  21. the innominate one   16 years ago

    Actually, I thought it was okay.

  22. Paul   16 years ago

    Come now, Jordan. Many of us are, in addition to being critics, artists and writers ourselves. I include myself in this group.

    I'm an artist, musician, writer and part time composer too. I just don't get paid for my work, and no one listens to it or reads it.

  23. PapayaSF   16 years ago

    Check out the 1934 cartoon recently on Lucianne.com.

  24. Jewel   16 years ago

    I like it. The overhead lightbulb makes it.

  25. brotherben   16 years ago

    PapayaSF, Thanks. Excellant link.

  26. P Brooks   16 years ago

    It needs a "Buy a Cadillac, get a Bank!" sign.

  27. Mike Laursen   16 years ago

    I'm confused. Why are the words, "Certified Dealer", already etched in stone on the frieze of the government buildilng? What did the frieze say before they put up the small "GM" banner over part of it?

  28. Art-P.O.G.   16 years ago

    ART-P.O.G. wins the pretentious fop award.

    I'm honored.

  29. Francesco Sinibaldi   16 years ago

    My love for you.

    Sleep little
    darling, and
    always remember
    the breath of
    the sun and the
    word of your
    Princess....

    Francesco Sinibaldi

  30. Dante\'s Peak   16 years ago

    It should have included, like in the bottom, a picture of a boat and it could have that captain who was taken hostage by pirates saying something like, "the real pirates are the US gov't!" and then maybe like a little bit away one of those Cuban floating cars and the guy in there is like, "Sorry GM, I won't buy one of your cars either, I just keep this one running!" and maybe it could show Cuba a little behind that with like a sign on Guantanamo that says "Out of Business" and to tie it all together, somebody looking at Guantanamo saying "Geez, this recession is sparing nobody" and then a plane taking a former prisoner back to Afghanistan and he is saying 'I will miss the cereal'

  31. nike shox   14 years ago

    is good
