He’s going to have a headache if he goes around once.

He’s a sitting…err…standing duck!

Wonder if he’s hinged to reset each time around?

And isn’t “fun” what it’s really all about?

This comic would work without the caption, too.

A new meaning to “sitting duck” !

South Carolina has now made the firing squad and electric chair as an option for death penalty cases.

NRA commercial?

Who says there’s no entertainment in death?

Putting the “fun” in funeral.

Okay, I’ll admit a lot has to go wrong in my life for me to be in that situation, but if it were me, I’d shoot the bird.

Shouldn’t the birds be wearing blindfolds?

“So General, I take it that you are firing me?”

“Something like that… you’re just missing a preposition! As soon as I finish tying you up, you’ll have about a minute to figure out what it is! Heh-heh!”

“WAIT! You’re firing “AT” me?!”

“Wow, that was fast! So being blindfolded and tied to a pole didn’t tip you off, but the preposition you got!?!?”

Talk about adding insult to injury!

I have to admit I laughed out loud at this. Find your fun where you can!

More sporting chance one might say……

And if they run out of bullets they still have the bayonets? How cruel!

Good thing this is pre-Bleeb, I imagine a few of the shooters would have gone for him.

And the winner gets a Kewpie doll.

It’s also more exciting for you, because if you make around five times we let you go.

Oh, that’s cold. That’s just cold.

The cruelty is the point.
