At last, something not only humourous and entertaining, but also intellectually clever in the process. Thanks a bunch.
I don’t get the 2nd one (the 2 birds and the gray thing). Otherwise, I like it.
Two birds, one stone
MAJOR boring…
Come on, plenty funny. Most of them are puns, drawn cleverly. The praying mantis one of them missing the head.
“I don’t get the 2nd one (the 2 birds and the gray thing). Otherwise, I like it.”
It’s a stone with two birds. Think of the old adage.
2nd one is a fat ball, a type of bird food
The saying is “Kill two birds with one stone”. The stone is threatening to kill the two birds.
C’mon, nobody is going to acknowledge the dung beetles? They deserve recognition. Lol. And the praying mantis… I laughed too hard at that one. It doesn’t take much to amuse me. 🤷🏼♀️
Very funny. I bought a copy of the book.
Good job !
Silly people , ” kill two birds with one stone “
I just found out that my Birthday falls on the same day I was born. How cool is that?
precious
Nope, not funny…totally squaresville as a matter of fact….study GARY LARSON for awhile then try again.
Eat shite and die, 1,000,000 E. coli can’t be wrong!!
I like this person’s work alot. Especially the clever word play and puns. But I thought the stone was a potato, so it took me awhile there..as for studying Larsen, he’s in a crazy class of his own, nobody can touch him. Stick to your own precious style and punny work, it’s really also in a class of its own. More dog ones please…
Brilliant!
Hit or miss. Some are cute/funny; others meh. I don’t get the praying mantis one. 🤔
The dog talking to the guy on the toilet, absolutely hilarious.
The “kids” don’t get, “kill two birds with one stone.”
I’m laff in my arse off!!! Brilliant
Brilliantly funny. Too bad ya’ have to be “older” to get the stone/2 birds adage.
That’s not a trans butterfly, so the joke falls flat. A trans butterfly would be better represented by a caterpillar in a butterfly costume. Otherwise, the butterfly IS identifying aligned with its genetics. Sad and clueless is right. Missed the main point of transphobia: not going along with other people’s cosplay.
Playing mantises– females eat the male’s during/after sex
Praying mantises– females eat the male’s during/after sex
Appropriate that the second one in the “Transphobia” cartoon is a snail.
I like a joke that takes a little effort to get. Otherwise whatever.
Every trans I’ve ever encountered is terrible. The worst ones are usually from older Chryslers and the occasional Jatco JF011E.
condescending leftist horseshit… might as well watch stephen colbert… but even he gets funny once in a blue moon… not this.
I couldn’t do any better, thus I don’t publish but I can have an opinion and little humor here.
Often times, the comments are as entertaining as the comics.
much like new hampshire in the spring, snowflakes show up at the strangest times
