Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for July 09, 2021

I had never heard of “overnight oats” before this.

What would I do without comics to keep me current?

His standard pick-up line:

Nothing is better for thee than me.

WTF are “overnight oats”? You know what, never mind. I won’t even bother looking it up: it sounds like some trendy new food craze, so I’ll go with that.

I didn’t know that the Quakers were surfers.

Creepy, don’t let him near the family.

Eh? I don’t gets it.

If he’s a real Quaker, it should be all good (safe).

If not, call 9-1-1 now.

I like Quaker Oh’ts, too.

The man on the Quaker oats package looks like my grandfather in a powdered wig. Now every time I see him I think of grandpa.

Overnight oats are soaked in liquid. Hemp milk is a trendy option.

You’re going to be mush in the morning.

I buy Coach’s Oats from Costco. I’ll never touch Quaker Oats again.

Jokes don’t work without being based on a universally-known concept.
