Whoa, Diversity Lane. Flashbacks.

That cartoon about the city banning baggy pants just reminded me how stupid people can be over the dumbest little things. There was an arcade in the town I went to college in that had a big sign that said "PULL UP YOUR PANTS BEFORE YOU COME IN". Is sagging really that offensive to people?

Close to nobody actually cares about sagging pants, except perhaps as a symbol of how black urban youth are hopeless degenerates. There was just a wave of dumb cartoons based on a dumb song someone did on American Idol.

Just pour it directly into your gaping mouth-hole you decadent slut
If you work in a middle or high school, you'll quickly be trained to care about sagging pants. Most schools have "no sagging" as a rule, though how well it's enforced varies from place to place. Last time I told a (black) student to pull his pants up, he responded "well, you know what 'saggin' spelled backwards is." This led to an awkward silence once I realized what he was saying.

Pretty sure if this happened he would spend at least a month making cartoons about how the bacon deodorant corporate empire is now out for his fictional duck blood.

It's been a steady grow, but I think around the first 'noble American cartoonist' type comic he did he plumped up the little Kelly more for extra contrast.

:thurman: The second one in particular is just amazing.

Anyway, here's my local cartoonist's 2013 in review:



Most of these are German politicians, but there's a couple of international regulars in there as well. Also, I missed this beautiful mess when it was new:



Joseph: "What are we going to have for dinner tonight?!"
Mary: "Potato salad with sausages, of course - like every year!!" (that's a traditional Christmas Eve thing in Germany)

Those animals are high as gently caress.

This reminds me that Rall a little bit ago wrote up a blog post about how Obama is ignorant and lazy. Those were exactly the words he used--ignorant and lazy. And he has no idea why people think he's racist.

Edit: and he looks like an ape.

Between that and complaining about Obama requiring sleep, Rall sure has gotten weird about his whining lately. Even bringing up drones for the millionth time would be better than "how dare the president sleep instead of staying up 24/7 to work"..

What's the story with these Libyan/Hilary cartoons?

A Certified Jerk
How's this for vintage editorial cartoons? These are all drawn by George Herriman, who is best known for Krazy Kat. These ran in the Los Angeles Examiner some 100 years ago.

As you can see, Garge (that was his nickname) pretty much drew these cartoons freehand. Like he just filled whatever blank spot was on his paper. If available, I'll just copy and paste the explanations from the blog I'm taking this from.





quote:

Tuesday, May 19 1908 -- The statewide Democratic convention is now in session, and the news Herriman reports is that Gavin McNab, previously considered a shoe-in to continue as head of the California Democrats, has been dumped in favor of Theodore A. Bell. It seems McNab has been tainted with (probably true) rumors of being in the pay of the railroads and other interests, and of having run the Democratic party as an ethically impious organization.

Theodore Bell, a young fresh face in the party, is hot on reform of all kinds. Though not one of the vocal rabble-rouser who got McNab into hot water, he is believed to have done some back-room pulling of strings to get the dismissal of McNab into motion.



quote:

Saturday, May 16 1908 -- While the Democratic convention last week descended into a wild melee, it seems like the Republican convention operated a lot smoother. Despite the disappointing news that Teddy Roosevelt would not run again -- he had made that rash promise years earlier and very much regretted it -- the GOPers seemed to be ready to unite behind Teddy's hand-picked successor, William H. Taft. And that would be another decision that Teddy would come to regret ...


quote:

Sunday, May 10 1908 -- I think Herriman left this local Democratic Party meeting early. His sketches of the attendees, at which delegates were selected for the national convention, indicates that he saw little of interest. A couple quick sketches of the more picturesque in attendance and he skedaddled outta there.

After Herriman bowed out things got more interesting. Some sort of feud boiled over between a pair of members. As nominations were made for new vice presidents of the club, one nominee was accused of not upholding the ideals of democracy. The accuser became the accused as he was in turn charged with being a gambler. Sparks really flew, with lots of yelling and threats of violence. Great fodder for a cartoon had Herriman just stuck around.

The report by David Kirkpatrick, The Times’s Cairo bureau chief, and his team turned up no evidence that Al Qaeda or another international terrorist group had any role in the assault, as Republicans have insisted without proof for more than a year. The report concluded that the attack was led by fighters who had benefited directly from NATO’s air power and other support during the uprising against Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi and that it was fueled, in large part, by anger at an American-made video denigrating Islam.

The right is saying the New York Times is simply lying to prop up Hillary for '16.
