What should be a plain silhouette of a rhinoceros in the moonlight instead appears as a hodgepodge of animal parts strewn together at odd angles. The upper-crust suggestion of the rhinoceros being “in repose” treats it as if it is a high-class work of impressionist modern art. The fact that it looks like it was drawn by a child adds to the ultimate humor of the strip.

*sigh*

I think it is simpler than that: Let's put all the pointy stuff inside our inflatable floating device.

Looking at the panel, I can hear John Williams's music

Before multi channel tv and live streamings not all weekly games, if any, were on tv. I remember as a kid on game afternoonsa that you could hear the radio from many apartments all on the same station, the announcer is all excited and then the whole block cheering or crying on a goal or miss. Today you can still hear it when a national or international game is on live tv, but not the weekly league games. I'm feeling old.

Do people still listen to sports on the radio?

Is that some reference to the 1976/8 Breakout video game?

Round or square, some problems are universal.

The trope of a dying man in the desert seeing an oasis mirage, while eagles are waiting to feed on his corpse. Here the eagles are disappointed to see just a mirage of a tasty corpse.

Is there a way to disable this behaviour, marking the whole thread as unread? Better if it can be done to a given post.
