I guess he can't see the werewolf that's about to eat him because Bok thinks they don't cast a reflection.

A rare note of subtlety with the Black Jesus loving himself in the mirror as his real affair.

  Doug Marlette did this first with Donald Trump ("there's someone else, isn't there, Donald?")
some guy 13 years ago

All caricatures of presidents have big ears because all presidents have big ears because all presidents are old men and all old men have big ears.
1. db 13 years ago
  
  So will caricatures of our first female president feature her pendulous wizard's sleeve?
invisible furry hand 13 years ago

Hey Chip, this is more like it! Recognisable caricatures, no need for labels, a satirical jab (the mirror - nice touch) and a cutesy idea. I still didn't laugh, but i didn't want to punch something either.
1. Groovus Maximus 13 years ago
  
  Recognizable? I don't recall Grace Jones ever getting a weave!

Bok, Samuel L. Jackson does not wear pearls.
Sure he wears a dress from time to time, but never pearls.

I recognize Chewbacca, but who's the black guy? Lando?
Dammit, can't figure out these cartoons without labels.
1. Mr. FIFY 13 years ago
  
  "Lando Obama" ought to have been an internet meme for a couple of years now. Someone dropped the ball along the way.

      Oh, wait, that's Admiral Ackbar.
Bee Tagger 13 years ago

He should fire back, "who gave you that pearl necklace?" And then wink at the mirror, cut to credits.
1. sarcasmic 13 years ago
  
  She was getting bombed and I was getting blown away...

  Bee Tagger !!!!
  i'm cryin'
  that's funny right there,
  i don't care who you are!
Almanian's Evil Twin 13 years ago

Why is Angela Bassett playing the part of Mic...ooooh! This is meta, and it's Jaleel White post Dacing With the Stars ejection (RAAAACIST!), and Angela in the soon-to-be-made-for-TV-movie "Barack and Michelle - A Love Story".

Nice, Chipper!
Almanian's Evil Twin 13 years ago

Also, why does the mirror have back hair? Is it from Italy?

  I think that's where he did a quick scribble to make sure his pen worked.

RE: Nick Gillespie on the new handicap access regulations for swimming pools.

Gillespie stated that a possible unintended consequence of the new rules could cause many swimming pools to not open, or close. Well, he was right.

  Don't they understand? They did it for the children!
2. Brandon 13 years ago
  
  But the HuffPo commenters assured me that this was just greedy pool owners wanting to discriminate against the handicapped!
  1. Mr. FIFY 13 years ago
    
    Apparently, perfectly serviceable portable wheelchair lifts are "discriminatory".
    
    This is just one more example of how well and truly fucked we are.
Cool Story, Bro 13 years ago

I've never seen a Friday Funny that elicited so much as a chortle; the comments, on the other hand, typically have me sharting whilst enjoying my morning oatmeal. Do they intentionally make these unfunny?
Rich 13 years ago

Vineland doesn't have the money needed to fit the city pools with special lifts for people with physical disabilities,

much less the money needed to fit the pools with special filters for people with chronic diarrhea.
1. Mr Whipple 13 years ago
  
  I worked at a private institution for the developmentally disabled. They had a huge indoor pool that was 3 ft deep. I wonder if they have to install these new lifts, considering the pool was specifically designed for people with disabilities, both mental and physical, in the first place.
  1. sarcasmic 13 years ago
    
    If it wasn't designed in a manner that complies with the regulations, then yes they would be required to install a lift.
    
    You're using common sense.
    
    There is absolutely no common sense when it comes to enforcing government rules.
    
    It's about power and the ability to force people to do things.
    1. Mr. FIFY 13 years ago
      
      But... but... the lady commenting on the Daily Journal website nailed it - if the mayor gave up his "muscle car", the city could raise taxes and legless children could use the pool without suffering the indignity and racism of a portable pool lift! It's genius!!!
      1. Brandon 13 years ago
        
        If they don't have legs weighing them down, couldn't a moderately strong lifeguard just throw them in? Win-win!
        
        Mr. FIFY 13 years ago
        
        Your jib is cut well, Brandon.
bostonaod 13 years ago

I prefer the work of Chip Chipperson
Mo' $parky 13 years ago

Since there are no handy labels here, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that the male figure is Barack Obama. I'm not quite sure why Tina Turner would be yelling at him though. And she sure does have quite a back porch.
1. Mo' $parky 13 years ago
  
  Also, I kinda feel sorry for the president for his lack of elbows.
  1. Almanian's Evil Twin 13 years ago
    
    I AM GUMBY, DAMNIT!
2. Wilt Chamberlain 13 years ago
  
  Tina's obviously yelling at him because he broke a deal. Time to send him to the gulag.
3. Tango Mike 13 years ago
  
  Did anyone else notice the upper arm flab? (Compare to the toothpick forearms.)
Lord Humungus 13 years ago

Best Chip Bok cartoon ever. Would give 2/10 stars.

  Dry, like a sandpaper enema.

So this is Obama's very own War on Women?
RingoHungo 13 years ago

Sounds like a rock solid plan to me dude.

Yes, Michelle is portrayed as a shouty black bitch, but she isn't braless, with big floppy tits and erect nipples. So Chip masturbated early on this one.
Bobarian 13 years ago

You all obviously can't follow the Bok.

This is from ST:TNG, (season 5 I think) Worf is obviously going through parenting issues with the loss of his wife, and young Alexander has developed some narcisstic tendencies (and an inability to understand economics).
Harvard 13 years ago

Her cheekbones are remarkably high. Obviously the woman is Cherokee and deserving of minority status.
Jim 13 years ago

This seems to compliment Obama. "See, he's a straight and narrow guy. He would never do something sleazy."
Brandybuck 13 years ago

She should shave her pits
