  1. Fist of Etiquette   12 years ago

    Jane Lynch doesn't look all that happy getting paid in Candy Dots.

    1. WTF   12 years ago

      Candy Dots? No wonder she's pregnant.

      1. Will4Freedom   12 years ago

        Those are birth control pills, but there's only 12 of them. That's why she's pregnant.

    2. PM   12 years ago

      That's blotting paper

      (and you call yourself a libertarian)

      1. BakedPenguin   12 years ago

        Wait, she's getting blotter? Shreeek is right, Obama is the most libertarian Pres ever.

    3. mad.casual   12 years ago

      In a very apropos assessment, I don't think Jane Lynch or her wife would be happy to be getting birth control pills either.

  2. mr simple   12 years ago

    So Juliette Lewis has been reduced to playing scratch offs?

  3. WTF   12 years ago

    Why did Anne Burrell stick her boobs in a pencil sharpener?

    1. Warren   12 years ago

      I dunno why?

  4. Fist of Etiquette   12 years ago

    Why is that emaciated elephant reviewing Pink's punch card?

    1. UnCivilServant   12 years ago

      Because the computer systems to do that have been broken by healthcare.gov

    2. Swiss Servator, K?se, K?se!   12 years ago

      Fist WINS.

      *applause*

  5. vazhzsh   12 years ago

    Why is the chick from Night Court being given a scantron exam?

    1. UnCivilServant   12 years ago

      Civil Service exams use scantron sheets.

    2. I. B. McGinty   12 years ago

      Scantron? Damn we're old. I mean you're old.

      1. Cdr Lytton   12 years ago

        Only if the questions were run off of a ditto machine.

        *inhales deeply* Ahhh....

  6. Almanian!   12 years ago

    Courtney Love has fallen on hard(er) times.

    Also, needz moar labelz.

    Also, RACIST.

    Happy Friday, Reasonoids.

    1. Almanian!   12 years ago

      Oh, also - why does that dude sitting at the desk or table or whatever it is (lord knows what it is since - NO LABELZ)....where was I?

      Oh - why does he have a growth in the shape of a shoe growing from his lower-right jaw? Is that something about "if we had affordable healthcare, this would be fixed", or "see, even gumming bureautards need health exchanges cause - malignant tumors in the shape of a shoe", or....??

      I think some subtitles - in addition to moar labelz - would help.

      Thank you.

  7. mr simple   12 years ago

    Why does his lip extend beyond his mouth?

    1. Will4Freedom   12 years ago

      I realize that this type of cartoon character is meant to exaggerate a persons features, but I think Bok went a little overboard.

      For instance? what if Obama wore glasses? His ears are way down by his mouth. His eyes and nose are way above that, near the top of his forehead. He'd never be able wear glasses.

      I suppose he could become a libertarian and wear a monocle, but that whole "Collectivist" thing keeps getting in the way.

      1. Rich   12 years ago

        I realize that this type of cartoon character is meant to exaggerate a persons features, but I think Bok went a little overboard.

        I have to agree, Will. Beavis's lips are FUBAR.

      2. mad.casual   12 years ago

        For instance? what if Obama wore glasses? His ears are way down by his mouth. His eyes and nose are way above that, near the top of his forehead. He'd never be able wear glasses.

        I agree. It's passing away from caricature and into a sort of Dali-ism, without the quality or depth.

    2. waffles   12 years ago

      It's racism, pure, naked racism.

  8. invisible furry hand   12 years ago

    "Sweetie"? Microaggression!

  9. Atanarjuat   12 years ago

    Don't say I never gave you nothin'? He gave the the opportunity to sign up for health insurance, or get a large fine.

    1. wareagle   12 years ago

      and he didn't give her anything. He and govt were just the middle man in taking from us to give to her.

    2. Swiss Servator, K?se, K?se!   12 years ago

      "For your convenience, this Shared Responsibility Payment is avolitional"

    3. Brett L   12 years ago

      But then he generously waved the fine. Maybe. Unless the IRS decides that's not really what he said.

  10. The Late P Brooks   12 years ago

    I don't get it.

  11. pmains   12 years ago

    Judging from the sign, the clinic is offering sex changes or is some sort of needle exchange? And I guess the president shared an STD with that street walker. Well, good job, Misseur Boo. Another triumph.

    1. pmains   12 years ago

      I swear that said Bok prior to the autocorrect.

      1. Swiss Servator, K?se, K?se!   12 years ago

        I thought that was some sort of clever play on Bok's ability to draw BOOOOOOOOs.

  12. GILMORE   12 years ago

    I don't get it.

    Also the bird on the right has a pregnant ass.
