Play Shades of Grey in My Black & White Strip Cartoon

Today this post will be certified as 100% scat free! Except for that last line...so this post is more like 99% scat free.

There has been a lot of fuss lately about certain groups of people who got upset about some cartoons that were published. I will have to support this group to a certain extent. Cartoons are offensive in most shapes and forms. For example, that Cathy really must tick off feminists. With her constant wistful nature of longing for a man to love her, desire to lose weight but tormented by chocolate, and being beaten by a pimp for stashing cash as a hooker down on 9 Chickweed Lane. Her friends Luann and Nancy run off when the beating starts. Where is Patricia Ireland when Cathy needs her? Hell, where is Kathy Ireland? If she stops by make sure she is wearing a swimming suit. Kathy not Patricia.

The Wizard of Id, B.C., Beetle Bailey, and Herman have all run their term and need to be retired. These comics are an offense to all young people and to all old people with Alzheimer’s who can't understand the jokes yet giggle incessantly. It is time to legalize comic euthanasia and put us all out of our misery.

Don't get me started on Ziggy. That is a total offense to all short, fat, and bald people who have delightful thoughts all day. I would think that Charlie Brown would start a jihad against that bastard because they look so much alike. Charlie would grab his friends Linus, Schroeder, and Pig Pen then put black hoods around their faces and bomb packs around their waists then head to Ziggy's bus stop, cafe, open air market, or wedding at a seaside resort.

Which brings me to another point. Isn't it about time that Peppermint Patty and Marcie finally declare, in public, their lesbian love affair? This is offensive to all lesbians that have come out of the closet and probably to most closets...especially walk-in closets.

I hate to say it, but the Holy Grail and holy hand grenade of comics, Dilbert, is also very offensive. Although it is based 99.9% in fact almost all CEO's of major corporations are offended by the whole 'pointy haired boss' stereotype. Recently they had a million CEO march on Washington D.C. to voice their displeasure. Unfortunately only one CEO showed up while the others were on vacation, playing golf, giving themselves bonuses, kissing stockholder butt, laying off people they never met, and involved in all sorts of sexual perversion with ground hogs. Which is pretty difficult to do all at once if you think about it.

In my humble opinion (IMHO for my peeps) the only non-offensive comic character is Opus.




One more thing. Don't forget that today is Global Don't Piss Off an Islamic Radical Day. Wish your closest Islamic Radical a wonderful day by sending flowers and a nice card with caricatures of all their holy prophets. They'll love it...really.
