This cartoon exists.
Does it? Does it _really_?
If a Bok joke falls flat in a corn field and nobody is there, does it make a sound?
He who Boks behind the rows.
Does a pig shit in the woods?
Does the Pope?
And does the Pope crap on the broken lives and dreams of 200 deaf boys?
You know who did shit in the woods...
Jesus?
ManBearPig?
The Kaiser?
Hey Reason, the third panel with the joke is missing
Third pane:
"Hey, asshole, camera's over here."
So this is what happens to a brain on ethanol. So sad.
Needs moar crying Statue of Liberty.
Why is Eugene Levy giving a meatball on a fork to Marty Feldman?
Oh wait I get it, something to do with gay marriage?
"...feed this shriveled ear of corn to my pigs." You know that's code, right?
Okay, now ^that^ actually made me chuckle.
Chip Bok's cartoons need an urban sensibility. That's what's "edgy" today.
urban
RACIST!!!!
"...Because I have to feed it to my truck. Dyno-MITE!"
+ JJ
In that case, the truck should be an El Camino with spinners. "I gots to feed dis to my elco, muhtherfucker."
If I were sage, I would say, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Happy Friday, Reasonoids.
I came here to say something like that, but you put it much better.
You are too kind
*blushes*
Chip Bok, you do realize who ELSE was a failed artist......
Mikey Tuttle?
Tonya Harding?
Careful with those jokes Rich:
So there.
OTOH
She's not worried, ifh, so neither am I.
I have to feed to my truck.
"Of course, it's a gas HOG!"
If I can give the cartoon more analysis than it deserves, the failure is not the second panel. It makes a witty remark about using food for fuel.
The problem is the first panel. What relevance does it have? Has this been a bad year for corn growers?
It's a two-fer, Caleb. Chip packs as much relevance as possible into the space he's allotted.
Something about a drought in the mid-west, dustbowl conditions, and a bad corn crop?
Just in case that wasn't sarcasm:

Chip Bok cartoons are where humor goes to die.
