Seamus the Dog or Seamus the Embezzler?
True Scots spell it "Seumas".

Agreed - if naught else, to cover up the "comic" a bit more...
I'd put the money in the car and the kids on the roof
I'd take the money and leave the kids at home.
Can't leave those kids at home. Two of the boys are looking at their sister like they want to throw a fisting party and the other kid is silent and well-behaved, mesmerized by the sight of cows pooping.
The pink and brown flower slowly reveals its secret. A terrible beauty is born
Billy only likes them fresh.
All the subtlety of being slapped in the face with a dead fish, but at least the subject matter is fresh.
... I don't get it.
Why would she read the words 'vacation checklist' out loud?
And why check the checklist after they're already on the road?
Are you married? My wife waits for us to be half way to our destination before asking if I remembered to pack something.
Which means that she forgot just remembered it.
^This. My wife did that to me all the time, realizing she forgot something she needed after we were on our way and wanting to turn around to get it. Until I finally just started saying "oh, well, too late now". Now she's more careful to be sure she doesn't forget anything.
"Did you remember to pack OUR hair dryer?"
Huh!? Since when do I use a hair dryer?
Why do they need cash for "rising gas prices"? You don't pay for "prices" - you pay for "gas" So wouldn't the suitcase of cash be to pay "for high-priced gas", rather than "high gas prices"?
Four kids in the backseat? FOUR? Really? Cause that doesn't look like it has three rows. So four kids in the second row = SOMEONE'S NOT BELTED, cause there is NO car on the market with four backseat belts. Therefore - child abuse.
Awful.
As WTF noted above, MOAR LABELZ probably would've helped.
You know who else suitcases and wheelbarrows of money to pay for things made an impression on?
Col. Klink?
Little Orphan Annie?
That guy who sells Zimbabwean $100T bills on eBay?
Whores in Wiemar Germany?
your mom?
Milton Friedman?

Friday Hit y Run Checklist:
Backdated Brickbat, check.
Shitty Friday funny, check.
Another week in the bag!
/squirrelz
It's nice to see I've gotten other people to check the timing of the Brickbats. All that bitching has paid off!
[rubs palms together in evil glee]
Get stopped by police, and have your money confiscated because they say it's drug money.
"your money confiscated"
Ahem... your assets forfeited.

You mean like a real American vacation.
I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose.Praise Marty Moose!!
They should pay with a credit card. PROBLEM SOLVED.
Maybe it should have been a funny about the Obama family having to rent a caravan of Ryder trucks to haul hundreds of millions of dollars from the Treasury to pay for one of their solid gold, jewel encrusted, no expense too great vacations. Meanwhile, an American family stands by the side of the road hitch-hiking, because they can't afford to buy gas for their vacation.
With a caption of Michelle saying " Ah...let 'em eat cake!" ?
I hope you're licensed to dispense cartooning advice in every state. Also, don't you know that terrorists regularly read the internet? You've just aided them in making better political cartoons!
One of the kids is freaked out by all the scary coat hangers in the back.
They are going to Texas.
NO WIRE HANGERS!!!!!
Romney's dog was made of money! I knew it all along! Even when I didn't know it, I knew it!
I brand thee Joke Stealer.
1. People steal my jokes constantly.
2. I did not know Romney's dog was named Seamus. What a thoroughly shitty name for a dog.
3. I'll remember this the next time you get into a discussion about intellectual property. Prepare.
4. You don't get to read the new Warty Hugeman adventure in the Morning Links. If I catch you reading it, I'm going to text STEVE SMITH your butthole's address.
I feel that I am being tough, but fair.
Depends on the dog. I think Seamus would be an okay name for a Scottish Terrier or an Irish Wolfhound. For a Labrador or Poodle, pretty terrible.
I'm of the opinion that any name virtually impossible to yell with a mouthful of crackers is a bad name for a dog.
That's just how I was raised.
I like Scottish Terriers and have always wanted to own one or a Scottish Deerhound. But you can't name every dog Angus. So you have to come up with some other good Scottish names.
i thought you were raised sucking on a bourbon-soaked rag and shooting at your own reflection
Your point?
IFH,
Being from Kentucky means SF never has to explain that. Everyone just knows it when he says where he is from.
Now that is funny. Pay attention Bok
I'm going to text STEVE SMITH your butthole's address.
FoE is listed first in Steve Smith's little black book - which happens to be tattooed on his nutsack.
Those people's faces look like guns. You monster!
If by "guns" you mean "fleshy semi-turgid members", then yeah.
Good luck making it five miles with that much cash before some cop seizes it. Only drug dealers and criminals deal in cash.
I was going to add - and government agencies, but that was redundant.
They just take your cash. But they always pay via direct deposit.
HnR should just post of photo of a busty young babe every Friday morning.
Like this?
$1000 for hotel rooms.
$1000 for restaurants
$400 for Wally World
$300 for old gas prices
And a whole another $40 for increase cost of gas.
Oh my God, cancel the vacation!
Yes, but how much in royalties to play Chariots of Fire while running through the parking lot?
Couldn't be more lame if they were heading to a paraolympic event.
With all the permutations of "white hispanic" at his disposal how did he miss the timing of the Zimmerman case outcome?
Anonbot is easily impressed.
