Squirtin' Milk-Funny

It was a stellar day for the funnies, one of the better Sundays in recent memory, involving not just smiles and giggles, but full-on, squirtin'milk-out-the-nose chuckling. Okay, so not actual milk, but if I had been drinking milk, there would have been a mess.

This, thanks to "Pearls Before Swine.":



Oh. My. God. This guy's insane, but funny as hell.

"Opus" was a real head-scratcher, but not so much for its assertion that there are no female animal cartoon characters ("adjunct girlfriends don't count"), but for the eye-popping collage of presumably Alpha-Male toons ranging from Foghorn Leghorn and Boo-Boo Bear to Spongebob Squarepants and Jiminy Cricket. The question in my head was "man, did he have to get licensing for all that? And how much did it cost him? And was it worth it?" If nothing else, it got me puzzling over if maybe there WAS a female toon somewhere that wasn't the girlfriend of a more popular toon. Lola Bunny. Bugs wanted her, but she was waaay too cool for him. Pay up.
