Not “worst” in terms of quality (it gave us “shrinkage”, after all), but the one episode that offended me personally was **The Hamptons** , where George tricks a Jewish girl into eating lobster.

I’m not Jewish, and I loves me some lobster, but to me this went way beyond normal gang jerkishness.

I don’t know that one. But I just can’t help putting this one in too. It’s from the competition. (It had no caption before a reader provided it)

A drum majorette is in full regalia and twirling a baton, in the middle of the desert, followed by two suitably dehydrated men crawling. One says “Love the Pomp. Not crazy about the circumstance”

That’s on the “Ziggy BYOB” level. :rolleyes:

Thanks. I had a tough day, and now I can’t stop chortling.

Who leaves a country packed with ponies to move to a non-pony country?..
