More Sex for Mastodons (Issue 0002) -- Representative sample?

 

  

Reader Comments...
 

Why did that lady decapitate those three chimps? What's funny about that?

Why are the skull's eyes bloodshot in the second frame, but normal in the first frame? What's funny about that?

Dude, this is hysterical. You're hysterical.

I never knew.

John, I am wordshy: "South Park meets Dilbert"

I may want to syndicate this strip on my usability sites. I could use it to replace my anti-war banner before my 24 hours run out.

How much would it cost me?
Would I have to link the strip to a page of your choice?
Could you publish a copy of the latest strip named "latest.gif", as this would allow me to link to the latest strip without having to change my html.

I think you should delete each strip from your site after 24 hours.

Um, I'm not finding this terribly funny. Sorry if I offended you.

What does the title mean? "More sex for mastadons"?

Ohhh Myyyy Gooooooddddd, now the ending to the new version of "Planet Of The Apes" makes perfect sense to me!!!!!!

Exactly Mac :) 10 points.

"If you left a hundred monkeys in front of a hundred typewriters for a hundred years eventually you'd manage to get a Shakespearean sonnet."

Could the same be said about a "heuristic evaluation"?

Perhaps the joke is in the title... the word 'sex' being included so that everyone stops visiting WebWord out of fear that their employer's monitoring software will raise a red flag. Ha ha! Good one.

Okay, this new strip clears everything up. From the last strip, I thought you were trying to be funny and just not succeeding. Now I see that you aren't trying to be funny at all.

I mean in the first frame you speak in the future tense. In the second frame, you speak in the past. And the third is to showcase some chimps.

I'm kidding. I think you're trying to say that testing was done on the site using chimps and a guy sitting in a television control booth. Because web developers are always testing their sites on animals and TV producers. I get it. Keep the laughs coming!
