Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal by Zach Weinersmith for September 16, 2015

Truth in advertising. Can’t get better than that.

What is too short to be functional?

Just out of curiosity, why the tan lines on the guy’s neck and arms? He seems a Mr. Stud type who would parade around in Speedos. .And “Tyrannosaurus Sex” was how Ted Kennedy described himself at one point, so that phrase already has a bad connotation to me. .Geez, and then there’s that image of Ted Kennedy in Speedos now stuck in my head. I think Tom Wolfe illustrated him that way years ago.

He resembles the boss from “Basic Instructions.”

Isn’t that David Crosby impregnating yet another woman?

“Uh, he has a job where he works outside in a t-shirt. If you’ve never seen this sort of tan, you’ve had an easy life.”.I knew that. I had a big yard with about 5 acres of grass to cut plus a large garden. I used to work outside with my shirt off for hours at a time and get really brown, back when I had a muscular physique worthy of consideration. .The character seemed the type to flaunt it and to hell with skin cancer. I do worry about cancer now, and work with a tee shirt and get the tan line effect. It looks dorky, unless once again I am out of touch with social norms. I thought tanning booths were still popular..(sigh) Most likely out of touch once again.

I just came across this by accident. I googled “Smith” and this was in the line-up. I’m not criticizing or being prudish, but I am going to say this. This is a pretty suggestive, even kind of “racy” for a comic site that kids read. My point being, if posters use the d or s 4 letter words, they can be banned. But this is okay I guess. I’m just saying, double standards I guess. :-)
