Snark It Up, FuzzBall!

aka, “All’s well that ends well!”

TA-DA! *

(* in the Bandar tongue)

And sometimes…I make myself laugh:

Of course, you know all the smirkiness will not lead to a happy ending…

…no matter how reprehensible (*coff*FunkyWinkerbean*coff*) the comic or its (*coff*LesMoore*coff*hack*gag*) its characters are.

And if the kitty is close by, I still might read it…

And evidently The Author has made the trek up Mt. Kilimanjaro, which I guess follows the old saw “Write/draw/exploit what you know.”

I wish I could quit Funky Winkerbean, but then Somebody introduces a little black kitten that somehow stowed away in a tourist’s bags all the way to Kenya. Dammit.

Yay! We’ve escaped a week or so of Les’ whining and/or pun-making and/or altitude sickness hallucinating!  Do we deserve a reward?  Damn straight!

Yeah, well, it’s a nice thought.

So, Funky buys a new car, and Les suddenly appears back in Westview (from Africa.  from somewhere on Mt. Kilamanjaro.) to say something snarky.   O tempore! O mores! O consistency!

Oh, well, I figure it can’t be that much of a spoiler…and anyway, it’s already 26 May in over half the world (probably the half that is blissfully free of  Funky Winkerbean in syndication).

It’s been an exciting Prom Week, hasn’t it?

And now…it’s that most magical and wonderful and memory-making of times (hey, I’m making this up as I go along, since I never went to a prom…I did go to a Gold and Green Ball once (nice choice of colors), which was sponsored by the local LDS Stake and was actually a lot of fun–wonder what happened to Larry Blackburn…probably married a nice Mormon girl…wonder if he’s on Facebook)…the Crowning of the Prom King and Prom King!

Oh, heck.  So much for stalling.

Anyway, after much speculation (most of it snarky) from the folks at The Comics Curmudgeon, the obvious vote is obvious.

The less obvious ones are funnier…

Funky Winkerbean and Luann cut to the chase in topics ripped from the headlines! Same-sex couples attending the prom! Frivolous lawsuits! 21st Century adaptations of Of Mice and Men!

My God…it’s like I never have to listen to the news again to be so well-informed!

I. Am. So. Excited.

I. Am. Still. Excited.

Or, the only reason I continue to mash-up crappy comic strips like Funky Winkerbean is because so many folks at The Comics Curmudgeon have such good ‘n’ snarky ideas…

Oh, yeah, he’s She Who Must Not Be Named’s husband…
