(11,344 posts)it's just funny how the "degenerates of the lounge" were the exiled back in the day. meta made us loungers look good!
the rest of the post and replies made me giggle. the poster didn't know what kali was laughing at and calpeggy, nice as always, points out a better term to use. it's ironic and hilarious.

(29,414 posts)I'm kind of glad I never was able to get into the story by reading the book (I found it duller than Steinbeck, and that's impressive!)

(53,339 posts)I'm a sucker for Snoopy jokes. I remember an old Snoopy cartoon (and I don't know if it was done by Shulz or somebody else) in which Snoopy says, "It warms the cookies of my heart."

(56,912 posts)"It warms the cookies of my heart."
that would make a good sigline, methinks.

(53,339 posts)I used to make booklets of them to send to my friends for Christmas. I'd make a personalized hardstock cover. i.e., for dog owners, I'd use a cartoon of a dog peeing his name in the snow in front of a house with his owner telling him, "Stop showing off, Goldenterrier (or something like that)" and substitute my dog's name and post my friend's house number and their dog's name on the "Beware of..." sign in front.
It was fun while it lasted...

(56,912 posts)COMIC LEGEND: Mort Walker frequently would create racy versions of his Beetle Bailey comic strip as a gag.
STATUS: True
Mort Walker has been working in comics for more than SIXTY YEARS. He is one of the legends of the business. His work on his creation Beetle Bailey and Hi and Lois have made him one of the most popular cartoonists of the past century.
Just this week I spotlighted some of his legendary first moments from Beetle Bailey in When We First Met.
Now, die hard fans of Mort Walker know that he has had this really funny habit over the years, a habit that was actually turned into a comic book in Sweden back in the mid-1990s.
You see, Walker liked to draw racy versions of Beetle Bailey as sketches to amuse himself and his friends.
