This reminds me of a teacher who used to sing that song with us in class.
The school was in Germany.
The class was Latin lessons.
We were in 12th grade.
She was 1 year from retirement and gave zero fucks.A translation into Latin doesn’t seem to scan with the tune (caveat: translation software used)… So she was singing in English? In Germany? During Latin class?
Yep. That’s definitely without a care in the world.
Did she do “If you’re happy and you know it” for an encore?
Yes, we sang in English.
As an encore, she sat on the window sill in the sun for 10 minutes, to demonstrate her new self-tinting glasses.Absolutely demented.
The style is upsetting.
I love it
It seems way too elaborate for such a simple comic.
Reminds me of old Mad Magazine, when they’d parody something they’d draw famous faces in detail but on a much more cartoony body. Definitely a bit jarring, but I’d take it over another stick figure any day.
Or like Ren and Stimpy for the closeups.
Point to the horses or pumpkins analogs instead?
Dullahan inclusion now!
I mean, you still have shoulders, knees, and toes!
Muzzy: just give a clock to eat and go away…
Is there a credit I’m missing?
Bottom right panel
Is this some boomer shit I’m too woke to understand?
It’s pretty self-explanatory, even if you don’t know the common children’s tune or the reference to the headless horseman.
You’re right, I apologise. I said understand when it would probably have been more accurate to is the word appreciate.
All good, easily forgiven. I found your comment somewhat amusing anyway due to the woke overtones of the cartoon
I thought the comic was making fun of wokeness, as a reducto ad absurdum
I see how, it’s not unreasonable :)
I took it at face value, but particularly enjoyed the absurdity of a situation that couldn’t happen; that such an innocuous song might get cancelled for being non-inclusive. A comment on the times, perhaps, but I think more reflective than judgemental
To you and me, headless horsemen are fairy tales. To a conservative, xenogenders are fairy tales. I think this comic was made by someone who genuinely feels the way this comic makes you and me feel.
