    Really good but not funny.

    Good morning reason!

  2. heller   15 years ago

    I've accepted the fact that Friday Funnies is never funny. Really, it doesn't bother me at all.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    1. sage   15 years ago

      Damn you west coast time!!!!!!!

      1. heller   15 years ago

        West coast? I'm on the east coast, I just don't sleep.

    2. Rather   15 years ago

      Heller don't go to my blog today

      1. heller   15 years ago

        Rectal I was actually going to go to your blog today, but if you insist on me not going...

        1. Rather   15 years ago

          I insist that you do not

  3. a penny a day keep obama away   15 years ago

    That circle around Palin on the grassy knoll is violent rhetoric.

    1. Rather   15 years ago

      clever too
      GM

    2. OhioOrrin   15 years ago

      that circle round palin is a shit stain

      1. OrrinOhio   15 years ago

        The best part of you ran down your mother's leg at birth.

    3. LeSigh   15 years ago

      I'm okay with the circle. It's the arrow that is violent rhetoric. Also misogynistic as it is clearly a phallus.

  4. Rather   15 years ago

    clever

  5. Rather   15 years ago

    Sarah Palin dressed as Jackie, wearing a pillbox hat, and in a classic convertible would have been too edgy

    1. a penny a day keep obama away   15 years ago

      Not that edgy...

  6. a penny a day keep obama away   15 years ago

    Good morning to you

  7. Jerry   15 years ago

    The real Friday Funnies: Obama appointing GE's Jeff Immelt to head the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.

    1. a penny a day keep obama away   15 years ago

      Hope Immelt has his copy of "The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money" so he can get up to speed on Keynesian economic theory.

    2. Rather   15 years ago

      no shit-I dumped all my stock

      1. a penny a day keep obama away   15 years ago

        Maybe Immelt is cruising for a bailout of GE.

        "Over here, we have the Obama washer and dryer set. Don't wash or dry very well but you already have purchased half of them with your generous taxes...."

        1. Fatty Bolger   15 years ago

          The business of America is bailing out business.

    3. O The Bama   15 years ago

      let me be clear...
      we are going back to the days of innovation in this country...
      back to the days of Edison...
      back to the days before the curly fry light bulb.

      1. Nikolai Tesla   15 years ago

        Fuck Edison.

  8. Fist of Etiquette   15 years ago

    Too soon. The Kennedy assassination hasn't even been 50 years ago.

  9. Jen   15 years ago

    Family Circus is funnier than this. This is just painful.

    1. Nopers   15 years ago

      Jeffy, who drew this terribly unfunny cartoon?

      Not me!

  10. Gregory Smith   15 years ago

    I hope you folks are defending talk radio, because the demoncrats and their progressive minions want to ban it with the so-called "Fairness Doctrine."
    http://libertarians4freedom.blogspot.com/

    1. The Internet   15 years ago

      They came for talk radio and I said nothing because I am not talk radio. They came for cable news channels but I said nothing because I am not cable news. They came for...(knock knock)...aw, shit.

      1. The_Chef   15 years ago

        Well played sir/ma'am!

    2. Commerce Clause   15 years ago

      Me to the rescue!

  11. Johnny Rocketts   15 years ago

    Oh wow, is it really Friday already? Wow I like it.

    http://www.anon-tools.edu.tc

    1. Almanian   15 years ago

      Oh, Anon Bot, I love you.

      Happy Friday, Reasonoids.

  12. Colonel_Angus   15 years ago

    It has been a long time since I even looked at one of these.

    Stupid.

  13. Almanian   15 years ago

    You know, I feel compelled to defend Payne, probably b/c he's a Detroit guy. Check out http://www.detnews.com sometime - go to Opinion - Payne's regular cartoons are posted off to the right.

    Some are quite good. The ones he sends to Reason always suck. I don't know why. I guess, as the song said, that's just the way it is.

    Enjoy. Or not. Your call.

    PS Today's Friday "Funny"? Yeah - not so much.

  14. Johnny Longtorso   15 years ago

    We need a site like "Dysfunctional Family Circus" for the Friday 'Funnies'.

    1. Almanian   15 years ago

      How about a CPAN feed?

  15. R C Dean   15 years ago

    We need a site like "Dysfunctional Family Circus"

    Not a bad way to describe the H & R comment boards, really.

    1. SugarFree   15 years ago

      YOU'RE NOT MY REAL DAD!

      1. Johnny Longtorso   15 years ago

        THEN I DON'T OWE THE CHILD SUPPORT!

        1. SugarFree   15 years ago

          THAT AIN'T MY BABY! THAT BITCH BEEN SLEEPING AROUND!

        2. Typical Judge   15 years ago

          OH YES YOU DO! THE WELFARE OF THE CHILD IS PARAMOUNT!

      2. Barely Suppressed Rage   15 years ago

        AS LONG AS YOU LIVE IN MY HOUSE, YOU WILL FOLLOW MY RULES!!

        DON'T YOU WALK AWAY FROM ME WHILE I'M TALKING TO YOU, YOUNG MAN!!

  16. P Brooks   15 years ago

    You're not exactly a "quick-draw" artist, are you, Payne?

  17. Modernhamlet   15 years ago

    Neither funny, nor illustrative of an actual trend.

    I'm used to Libertarians generally not possessing a sense of humor, but you guys are usually much better about the strawmen.

  18. Donderoo   15 years ago

    Hank Payne needs to change his name to Hank Pain.

  19. Sir Irony   15 years ago

    The sad thing about this is that there might be more evidence for this "theory" than the Kennedy version...

  20. Louis Vuitton 1904 Monogram Be   14 years ago

    If you grew up like I do using a romantic eyesight of what my wedding party ought to be like, then no make any difference how quite a few issues there are to request yourself, you're positive of a single thing, it requirements being perfect. these days not everybody seems as worried about discovering the great Wedding Dresses, but for the vast majority of us - deep within - it actually does matter.

    As quickly when you start preparing or even the large day, deciding on your wedding party attire gets an urgent require for most brides. Nobody would like to wait. even though dealing with wedding party strain and preparations, be positive to enable your self a lot of time to attempt on completely different designs and discover the a single who says "you".

    The theme of your wedding party would be an significant place when choosing that unique dress. have you been obtaining married for the beach? If so, you may pick a gentle airy style. Have you made the decision on the formal affair? Then by all means, go all out and put on a light attire covered in silk and lace. what ever kind of celebration your wedding party will be, your attire will perform among the most significant roles in it!With the cost of weddings, some couples attempt and minimize back again by creating their personal flowers, or purchase some wedding dress in a specialized dress shop at a high price, but why don't you try to buy a cheap wedding dresse online directly. Where you can also purchase your ideal wedding dress and some new fashions. whatever style, colour or cost variety you sooner or later choose on when deciding on your wedding party dress, don't neglect that it's you your fianc? fell in adore with, not your dress. The attire adds towards ambiance from the day, however it isn't the genuine centerpiece.

    After you have selected your wedding party attire hang it inside bag it arrives in and don't display it to everybody. Give company a thing to start looking forward to once they see you for your initial time walking along the aisle. And unless it is really unavoidable, don't allow your potential husband see your attire whatsoever prior to the wedding. They say it's poor luck as well as if that's merely a superstition, it definitely does spoil his surprise!
