Special Laffalympics

TODAY'S STRIP

Not only has this recession hit the common folk hard, it's also afflicted our very own dear CJo, who can't afford to post here more than twice a month.

It's rather fortunate for him, however, since we're subjected to yet another Prickly City official thong-flag reference and Carmen's multiple-punctuated exclamations. But seriously, folks.Prickly City's wikipedia entry notes that it exists in the genre of humor; so what's so funny about 'thongs'?

You know what I think would work much better: merkins. Now that's a funny/vaguely dirty sounding word. What's more, according to the American Heritage Dictionary, merkin derives from an "[a]lteration of obsolete malkin, lower-class woman, mop, from Middle English..." so there's the added fun of picking on the immigrant-bashing daughter of illegal aliens, Michelle Maglalang.
