Well, That Didn't Take Long

So Michael Jackson died yesterday. Along with Farrah Fawcett, I hear. I don't really have much to say about either, except these losses are coming uncomfortably close to my own generation. Guess I'd better start scanning the obituaries for my friends ( Read more... )

Heehee. That's pretty quick turnaround, yes indeed.

OMG, two posts in a month! :D

I dunno...that comic seems just a little tasteless, tho its not particularly mean. Maybe its the timing, maybe its the bland and obvious joke, maybe its the complete lack of gravity...or maybe its all of the above.

Really??? (peers) OH, yes!! So, didja vote up my Failblog submission? :)

Yes, it's probably mostly the timing. I don't know that I'd call the joke that obvious, but it is pretty punful. These guys actually do quite a few of these terrible puns, but I think the timely (almost too timely) nature of this one is almost a first.

BTW, li'l mea culpa on the OP: That strip went up the day AFTER MJ died. Oops.

I don't remember if I did or not. I think I tried and the Failblog site wouldn't cooperate.
