I don’t know if you ever heard of the famous day when the old New Yorker cartoonists (young back then) got together while the then editor was on vacation and decided to try to see who could do the dumbest cartoon ever, and the winner was Crawford, with this one, and which I was sorry I couldn’t have the original of (it was sold!):
Even when he was dying in the hospital, we would still find ourselves using the caption from that cartoon, it had become part of our vocabulary forever. I still hear it in my mind whenever I offer someone a seat.
Excellent theme and execution, everyone! I have a tangential theme to suggest: cartoons that no one else seems to get. And then don't explain them! For kicks!
