Have to keep up Appearances!

There doesn’t seem to be anything within Duke’s price range.

Say, is Honey still in the picture, or is she now history???!!!

This story arc is way too political for me. /s Someone wrote that this strip is 100% political and boy, were they totally ………… wrong.

Did you somehow miss the Enron scandal or weren’t you born yet?

Gotta give Tiff credit for being able to remember where all the “Just Stuff” came from.

Note the copyright is 2002 — this isn’t about recent politics, but it sure looks familiar.

The clock shows about 5:50, not noon!

I used the “Contact Us” feature at the bottom of the screen to beseech GoComics to reinstate comments on the editorial cartoons now that the election is over. I’m reproducing below their response to me (my emphasis added) so that other people won’t bug them about it as well:

As of July 17, 2024, GocComics will no longer offer commenting on political cartoons. Our goal is to foster an engaged, thoughtful community. However, maintaining a respectful environment has become increasingly difficult given the divisive nature of certain topics and the tendencies of some to provoke controversy as the 2024 election approaches.

On top of this, GoComics uses an outdated commenting tool that lacks the capability to effectively moderate the comments and ensure compliance with the site’s commenting policy.

Given these circumstances, we’ve made the difficult decision to remove commenting from political cartoons. This is likely not a permanent measure—we hope to reinstate comments in 2025 with an improved commenting platform.

We appreciate your understanding as we work to uphold the integrity of the GoComics community.

Is this storyline intended to make my skin itch?—Or is the carpet infested with fleas?

Schedules to keep.

When are they going to auction off the Gold Toilets??
