365 Days of Laughter

I have a New Yorker cartoon 365 day calendar. I love ripping the cartoons off, sometimes they actually make my day. Granted, not all of them are funny, but some of them are awesome. (I swear, the cartoons are half the reason I buy the magazine. Ahem, I mean, no--I love the magazine. It's a veritable symphony of literary genius.) The best bit is that you can always find cartoons that apply to anyone--usually when I rip one off and have a giggle, I'm thinking of someone. And so it ends up being the perfect thing to paste in a card! I mean, half the fun of a card is the stuff you can stick inside it--New Yorkers are absolutely perfect for this. These are a few of my favourites I collected from May-September 2009 (it's always great when you've been away for a while and then you get to come back and rip 60 of them off. So invigorating.)...
Reminds me of one of my best guy friends. I just look at it and think he would say something like that. Or worse.
Ditto for this one. Haha. ;)
Sorry you can't read this one very well, but it says...

Hot Dog Stand Guy: You know, I 've got an MBA from Harvard. I'm selling these as a hoot!
Guy Buying Hotdog: Well, ha-ha-HA, because I'm only eating this ironically.

As someone who comes from a small liberal arts college that loves being pretentious and has half its population hail from New York City, I feel this is very appropriate. And true. ;)
This is hilarious, especially since I was a praying mantis last year for Hallowe'en. Although I was definitely not as epic as she is.

  1. Wait...so you're telling me you didn't say that to A-Gianelli after the Halloween poetry reading?!?! Let's not be liars here...
