Frazz by Jef Mallett for August 21, 2011

What’s with the ghost horn?

@Alun RundleIt relates to the old poem:Beans, beans, the musical fruitThe more you eat the more you toot…

I wouldn’t glance. What’s this new style of wearing PJs everywhere?

I wouldn’t either, I am a older college student and what these girls were to classes sometimes is ridiculous!

The horn, the horn! Why the horn?

I figured the horn was a clever way of depicting a passing motorist honking at him.

The horn is the old man passing gas!!!!

Ha ha. At least the ol’ guy has tone!

I think the horn shows that the old guy doesn’t care what he just did. While everyone else around him is horrified at what Frazz is wearing, the old man could care less including what is coming out of his rear.

Thanks! I was lost. I did not see the tiny finger picking his nose and thought the child was hiding his face from Frazz so none of it made sense to me. I miss the actual PAPER funnies where I could SEE better.

Thank you so much. Because here is the way I originally interpreted it…. P1: Frazz did something to offend the little boy, so the little boy sticks his finger in his nose to deride Frazz. P2: The man in the tie offended the old man, so the old man toots to heckle the man in the tie. Not the first time a Frazz has confused me. Thank you for showing me the error of my ways.

It’s a Euphonium.

What’s with the horn in the second panel? What am I missing here?

Already answered in the previous comments George – old man is tooting.

How sad that most of the comments are about the fart, and none of them are about Frazz’s statement. Too much of our behavior is dictated by fear of what others will think if we do what we like, as long as no one is harmed.
