What was that your Mitt Romney stated today? Something about 47% of Americans? As an outsider, I’m not trying to politicise this – it’s just that this is so delicious that this ‘toon had been written, drawn and submitted before Mitt dropped his pearl of wisdom………………still funny ’cos it’s true, well done John & Scott
finally something I can understand on this comic strip. That show should NEVER have seen the light of day, talk about stupid……..I am from the South and I know NO ONE that is that stupid and backwoods hick.
I haven’t even watched the show. I recoil from the promos. Why would I want to watch that? Reality TV seems to on a strange bent lately, trying to find dumber and dumber hicks. The promos for Swamp People actually look scary. If you had shown just that clip at a drive-in in the 50’s, people would have been clinging to each other and weeping in fear.
Honey GOO BOO is the stupid of all stupids.That goes for her family too. I am from the South and THEY are they are the stupid ones ..we are not dumb and resent this show.
It’s a little scary with when you guys give her something to say that might make sense to us. (Sometimes the stray arrow hits the target.) We start to question our own thinking. Plus with the viewing angle you have us looking up to her… This only adds to the fealing.
BTW… what’s up with the angle on this one? It’s different and an interesting vantage point (with the hope that Caroline might pass it later)… but it looks kind of cool for the perspective issue.
Wow, a lame political name-calling fest came out of this? Congrats to all the name-callers for failing to reference one fact. I guess the usual “discussion” in the Doonesbury comments moved elsewhere since the strips there have been apolitical for a week or so…
Now, I was expecting somebody to make comments about iPhone zombies or Fandroids being Rita’s target audience… Let the smartphone holy wars begin!
Chris’ son was having a real go ’round with his visiting aunt about that. He believes reality shows are real, she insisted they were faked. But it comes back to the old question- can even the most honest shows actually be real, or does the presence of cameras and microphones alter the reality it purports to show- and how?
All I can say is, Honey Boo Boo is already a little BRAT, and I never say that about kids, and it isn’t her fault anyway. Imagine what she will grow into as a fu—ed up teenager?

Ain’t that the truth, Rita? We humans are stupid enough to fall for one stupid/bad thing in our lives.

I actually think that might work.

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again, Rita is not stupid. She just has very specific goals….

She should be advertising on the Real Housewives series as well. Add in Jerry Springer and Maury, and they will make MILLIONS!
