      Bok Funking The Universe!

      1. ballegooijenyves   11 years ago

        Start working at home with Google! It's by-far the best job I've had. Last Wednesday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474 this - 4 weeks past. I began this 8-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $77 per hour. I work through this link, go? to tech tab for work detail,,,,,,,

    2. John Galt   11 years ago

      Sorry. Woke up hearing Red Hot Chili Peppers songs in my head.

    3. EDG chippin' WUD   11 years ago

      Bok the Razzbah?

  2. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

    Wait, wouldn't that be buying the data from the chinese with their own money?

    1. Princess Trigger   11 years ago

      No we'll but the data with US Treasury bonds.
      Suckers.

  3. invisible furry hand   11 years ago

    That's a very weedy looking Texan

    1. HyperbolicHayekian   11 years ago

      It's Perot. and he's old.

      1. Almanian - Woodchipper   11 years ago

        I came here to say ^^ THIS ^^

    2. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

      That's no texan, that's a ventriloquist's dummy

      1. Swiss Servator, Vorladung?   11 years ago

        What if the ventriloquist is a Texan?

        1. Charles Easterly   11 years ago

          +1 Jeff Dunham

  4. HyperbolicHayekian   11 years ago

    Why would Peurto Ricans buy our data from the Chinese?

    1. Swiss Servator, Vorladung?   11 years ago

      Liberians.

  5. The Hyperbole   11 years ago

    I made my own Friday funny this week, enjoy

    [redacted]

    It's my first so don't expect Bok or Panye level artistry

    1. invisible furry hand   11 years ago

      Needz moar labelz

    2. HyperbolicHayekian   11 years ago

      Needz more labelz! (Well done though)

      1. John Galt   11 years ago

        There can never be enough labelz.

    3. Florida Man   11 years ago

      Just the right amount of labels. Honestly, the more I looked at it the more I liked it.

    4. Fist of Etiquette   11 years ago

      That's about Cash 4 Clunkers, isn't it?

      1. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

        Well, Fonz apparently drives a wood burning car and has to keep an oppressed class individual to feed the burner...

    5. PM   11 years ago

      The trigger warning should have been at the top. I scanned the image for about 2 minutes looking for Mexicans and ass sex before I scrolled down.

      1. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

        I was triggered by the presence of a trigger warning.

      2. MSimon   11 years ago

        I was looking for Top Hats, Top Men, and monocles.

    6. Almanian - Woodchipper   11 years ago

      Superb.

    7. Charles Easterly   11 years ago

      I enjoyed your cartoon Hyp.

    8. WTF   11 years ago

      Shit, that's funnier than anything I've seen from Bok or Payne.

      1. AlmightyJB   11 years ago

        I concur

    9. mr lizard   11 years ago

      That's a hot steamy cup of subtlety right there.

    10. Aloysious   11 years ago

      Nice.

    11. MSimon   11 years ago

      Is that Branch - Davidian?

      1. EDG chippin' WUD   11 years ago

        Narrows, gaze, etc.

      2. Charles Easterly   11 years ago

        No - those types of branches are set afire while still connected to their trees, so they will burn whilst still living.

    12. gaijin   11 years ago

      I see what you did there...or did I?

    13. SIV   11 years ago

      That's great. Crying Nick is just the right touch.

    14. All-Seeing Monocle   11 years ago

      Solid work Sir. I liked the labeling of the quote balloon, should have labeled the label.

      Overall rating: [redacted]

    15. Don'tTreadOnMeChipper   11 years ago

      That is awesome! Well done!

    16. bacon-magic   11 years ago

      Please do some more. I'm a big fan of anything Looney Tunes...

    17. Lord at War   11 years ago

      I don't know... looked pretty Payneful to me.

  6. Hugh Akston   11 years ago

    Why would John Inman wear such a ridiculous hat just to buy personal data from the Chinese?

    1. UnCivilServant   11 years ago

      It was a precondition of doing business - they wanted to make the experience as humiliating as possible for their own amusement

      1. Hugh Akston   11 years ago

        I guess you could say it was him that got served.

  7. StMack   11 years ago

    I'm sure if any congressional oversight committee seriously wanted to know what was on Hillary's email server the Chinese could supply that as well.

  8. Almanian - Woodchipper   11 years ago

    Ross Perot (as another has noted) - did not know he was still doing standup. Glad he can still get work.

    Awful. Therefore - perfect. Happy Fucking Friday, Reasonoids. May a US judge run your life through a woodchipper, and throw you in jail to be ass raped by pot-infused Mexicans.

    Also -

    *SLAP!!!!* with a woodchipper, of course, you lazy fucks.

    1. invisible furry hand   11 years ago

      *slap!*

      1. WTF   11 years ago

        *SLAP!*

        1. John Galt   11 years ago

          *SLAP!!*

        2. John Galt   11 years ago

          Text size tag is kaput..

          1. darkflame   11 years ago

            Who is john galt? We're gonna need another subpoena over here.

            1. John Galt   11 years ago

              With my handle I'm sure I've been closely scrutinized here by big brother since at least the first couple days after Obama's inauguration.

    2. Slammer's Chipper Wood   11 years ago

      Why would he draw a whole second guy, when all he needed was a comma or an ellipsis?

      *HYPERBOLIC SLAP*

      1. Almanian - Woodchipper   11 years ago

        Man, I miss Trig and Pre-Calc.

        1. Heroic Mulatto   11 years ago

          Here

        2. Slammer's Chipper Wood   11 years ago

          Triggernometry still scares me

          1. Swiss Servator, Vorladung?   11 years ago

            You require a trig(ger) warning?

            1. db   11 years ago

              What's Romansh for wood chipper?

      2. John Galt   11 years ago

        Piece work?

  9. John Galt   11 years ago

    Bok funking the Universe one cartoon at a time.

  10. american socialist   11 years ago

    ... I would say though that given the penchant of right-wingers to do things like blow up federal buildings that perhaps I am being to blas

    1. american socialist   11 years ago

      ...too

      Jesus, I need to stop writing to libertarians on the can.

      1. darkflame   11 years ago

        Wait, you do that also?

    2. fleshy wavefunction   11 years ago

      e.g. Weather Underground?

      1. american socialist   11 years ago

        That's ol' skool'-- in response to, in their defense, a genocidal war. The new Skool' is worried about how we should all be able to acquire arsenals in our homes so we can take on the federal government in a firefight for liberty... And abortion doctors

  11. Ron   11 years ago

    Actually they ( the fed's ) will just force your telcom and internet companies to do it for them thus saving the government money.

  12. modurhead   11 years ago

    china is like a clintonreaganbush wet dream, no EPA, no unalienable rights, no unions,no party choice and censored internet, its a business mans paradise.

  13. Bodica Slayer of Drones   11 years ago

    A better Friday Cartoon Funny would be a Federal attorney shredding the Bill of Rights through the woodchipper.

    Or a wise-ass libertarian taking a subpeona through a woodchipper.

  14. buybuydandavis   11 years ago

    Actually, they'll just use the telecoms to collect and store your data.

  15. kotihepur   11 years ago

    Google pay 97$ per hour my last pay check was $8500 working 1o hours a week online. My younger brother friend has been averaging 12k for months now and he works about 22 hours a week. I cant believe how easy it was once I tried it out.
    This is wha- I do...... ?????? http://www.netcash5.com
