I have been getting a tremendous amount of emails with ideas and thoughts for blog topics. This idea actually came from an email with a number of funny comics (thanks SY). Let me qualify what I just said. I think they are funny and hope you do as well. Everyone loves to laugh and have a quick chuckle.
I think they are all funny and very clever. My two favorites are the stray bar and the men at work sign. If you could see my face I am still smiling. My favorite comic is the "men at work" sign. I have seen that sign hundreds of times and never thought about it saying people at work or team at work…so the caption under it WOMEN WORK ALL THE TIME–MEN HAVE TO PUT UP SIGNS WHEN THEY WORK is very funny!
- Which one is your favorite?
I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Jennifer Stocks says:
I like the Men At Work sign, but the one with the nails made me laugh out loud. It is so amazing that someone could take something as mundane as hammering a nail and make it funny.
Merrill Shugoll says:
Merrill, I really needed chuckles today. You made my day. Thanks! They are all wonderful and I find it hard to single out one as my favorite. However, if you forced me to pick out the one or two I liked the best, I would have to pick the Men at Work one and the one about the ‘Nails”. I think the one about the “nails” is so goofy that it’s hysterical.
Ginger Blazier says:
They are all too cute!!! I love the turtle/snail one and the stray bar. This started my day off well – thanks for sharing, Merrill. This might be a good idea for Fridays on a regular basis! Maybe contributions from fellow bloggers?
Hope you all have an eventful weekend,
Ginger
Lynn Stalone says:
Thanks, Merrill. I really needed this today. The Stray Bar is pretty funny, but I like the Tortoise & Snail best!
Merrill Dubrow says:
Ginger,
Glad you liked the cartoons – appreciate your idea to have them on a regular basis.
Enjoy the weekend.

Sounds like you needed a smile on your face. Glad it helped.

Thanks, MC for a great industry-related funny!
Peter Brownstein says:
All very funny, but like Jennifer, the one with the nails really cracked me up.
An idea for future topics – should there be an industry for editing menus of Chinese restaurants, or are misspellings and wierd word choices part of the charm? While on this subject, shouldn’t fortune cookies be called advice cookies since they usually contain advice and rarely contain fortunes?
Merrill Dubrow says:
Peter,
Thanks for your comments – that is very funny about the fortune cookies – I never really thought about that.

Khary Campbell says:
The “Stray Bar” comic made an instant laugh for me, the look on the dogs face is classic. The Nail one is pretty funny as well…. a great way to catch a quick laugh during the day! Thanks!
John Bell says:
The Maniac cartoon is the best one. But Merrill, as a blogger, you should really beware of violating copyrights laws and ask artists for permission to publish their work… and pay then them. Please don’t be a pirate. I’m sure Mark Parisi, Dan Reynolds aand Mike Baldwin would agree.
Merrill Dubrow says:
John,
Appreciate your comments. I am still really new at this blogging stuff and didn’t mean any harm or disrespect to you or any of the other artists. Moving forward we will be much more careful.
Thanks again for letting me know.
Merrill
