What's the funniest single panel cartoon you've ever seen?

This one was in ***Hustler **magazine back in the late '70s or early '80s. The guy has his hands about three feet apart, like a fisherman bragging about his big catch, and the wife is just slouching back in her easy chair with her nose buried in a magazine.

Or so I remember.

*No, I’ve never bought a copy of ***Hustler ***myself, but I have seen its contents on occasion.

They’re renting the premises, and the landlord can’t be bothered to disconnect it? :dubious: :confused:

… And it’s clear that the turd is his, still in the toilet, and he’s proud of it. It’s not like there’s a photo in the paper or something.

As I say, it’s typical ******Hustler ******humor.

I’m a lampoon fan, a Kliban fan etc. I even liked Dennis the Menace single panels. But I can’t see where the superlative wit comes in here. If you look at the back of the New Yorker, they have a contest for cartoon captions. Sorry, but I have rarely seen an entry in those that wasn’t better than almost any of these. Really.

Ok; fair enough if you don’t care for Larson, Addams, Thurber, and some of the others posted, and prefer Dennis the Menace and whatever else. But what’s the point in coming into the thread just to tell everyone else how much their contributions suck?

That’s a classic in our house, too. “Dinner’s getting cold honey ! Are you coming or is someone wrong on the Internet again?”

This comic has been hanging on my fridge door for years and I still get a little chuckle out of it. It’s a cat saying (or IS it? You never know with cats! ) to a woman: “Cats can’t talk, Harriet. You’re losing your mind.”

Someecards are fun, too. My favourite. “I tried to form a gang once, but it turned into a book club”.

Yoo Hoo!

Farmer Dan’s airplane rides

So true, so true.

Close, but no cigar.

IMHO, the best Dennis the Menace cartoons occurred when they were inadvertently crossed with The Far Side.

Good thing I read though the entire thread before posting. This one was mine.

This took me a long time to figure out since I didn’t ride city buses growing up.

Another Far Side one:

We see what is supposed to be “god” as a small child. He has just tried to create his first chicken.

[spoiler]It didn’t work…

The chicken has just exploded!

Feathers are drifting all through the room…

The (understated) look on the kid’s face is priceless.[/spoiler]

?? as well.

All I see is maybe the juxtaposition of the brightly lit bus with the music blaring going to pick up people (or somethings?) at the cemetery.

Maybe he’s dropping off a bus full of ghosts.

Oh good, nobody else gets it either.

I can’t even see what’s going on in that picture. Is there something hearse-like about the bus? Is that a person waiting on the sidewalk on the left?

There is a bus stop at the entrance to the cemetery, and the buzzer is notifying the driver that a passenger wishes to alight at said bus stop.

Took me ten seconds, but then again I’m a huge Charles Addams fan.

Oh geez. I get it.

That’s not music blaring. It’s the chime, because somebody has pulled the stop cord.
