This used to be a nice family blog until that naked foul-mouthed ursine started appearing here. Whatever next? Rupert the bear sporting a erection?
Yours,
Disenchanted of St Kilda.
Thanks Nabs,
That was the only thing funny about Ned.
Fred's comment on my comment is in no way a reflection on what my original comment was commmentin on.
For what it's worth, I can't always say Wicking's gags always hit my g-spot (but some have though) but I always do like the low key but smouldering exasparation his characters always seem radiate from the eyeballs out. Scott Adams and Ron Tanberg also pull off well this subtle but very effective trick of making the eyes carry a emotional punchline along with the written one.
