I feel like the last 2 frames are missing a subscript

I don't think a caption would improve the vampire panel, the joke is pretty self evident.

Yeah those are some goofy ass shoes

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What shoes?

Those are shoe-pants.

From what I can tell, he's got no pants, and has heels glued to the bottom of his feet

This has such a tom the dancing bug feel. Love the hunter deer one.

The moose one gave me Far Side memories. Actually most of them did.

I really don't get the bottom-right one

The artist just thought if cows made tools they'd be primitive and weird-looking.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

you read my mind. I had the exact thought:

is this the cow tools of today

The kid's been breaking the windows one-by-one with a paddle ball.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's a literally interpretation, but what is the joke? That even with the ball being on a string the kid still found a way to break all the windows?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

my guess is an arcade game where you break all the windows, kid saw it and did it irl?
honestly I don't understand like 50% of the comics here, I just see pixels and laugh 😅

As a deer hunter I accept the deer’s proposal. Lotta stress put on that shot, go ahead.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

i get the vampire one but what's with the others?

The invisible man is upset because his hot bar crush doesn't know he exists (how could she, the dude's invisible)

Hunters enjoy the sport of hunting. It would take the fun away if the animal killed itself. The deer is running a lose-lose gambit by killing itself

Kid loves smashing windows or sumn

I missed it the first time too, but that isn't what he's saying. She probably doesn't even know I don't exist. It's got a double-negative. If you cancel them out, you get: "She probably ~~doesn't even~~ know(s) I ~~don't~~ exist."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

you cannot just cancel out negations like that

he does not exist and she doesn't know it

This reminds me of Shrek when Pinocchio gets around lying by saying "I don't know where he's not," but if you think about it for one second you'll see that knowing where someone is also means you know where they aren't at. So it's still a lie.

maybe they're in a quantum superposition, you can never be sure

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then you don't know where he is!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

no, if you know one of the places where he is you can just observe him and he will be there and then you know exactly where he is and is not

But you can't just magically remotely view somewhere you can't see.

I interpret it as her being unaware of his nonexsistence.
