This one is pretty funny imo.
Unexpected reply paired with making fun of the army.
It wasn’t the fact that he has a pair of feet sticking out of this head that was the problem for the army, it was that they where flat and he couldn’t march on them.
Probably also resonated a little bit more with people in 1988 since many had directly experienced the Vietnam War draft.
Not having to go to Vietnam was a big relief for a lot of people.
Yepp, that also works. Always cool when something can be funny in many different ways.
My take. Most people get uncomfortable when you stare at them eating.
People generally don’t look at other people eating for that reason, but they’ve probably done that to the dog.
You’ve been making the poor dog uncomfortable for years, but it’s mans best friend so its let it go.
Fair enough:) I recon a non insignificant amount of dogs would probably be confused about this comic strip too - if asked.
