I don't geddit.
Fidel Castro created a country where every adult sounds like a muted trombone.
Ohhh, now I get it! I get jokes.
Or rather as JFK was to Che and Fidel.
Che was as bad at politics as Woodstock is at flying.
Fidel is as believable a soldier as Snoopy is a pilot.
Kennedy's political abilities were as modest as Schultz's artistic ones.
Yet without Kennedy - no Fidel, and without Fidel no Che.
I guess I don't quite get it. I think it should be funny, but I must be missing something here, probably with regard to the Peanuts background info. (I must admit that I don't often read the strip and most of my knowledge of the Peanuts-world comes from the TV specials during Christmas and Halloween. Sorry, Paul.)
It's intellectual waffling about comic books. Be glad you don't "get" it...
Um, when I took the SAT, you needed more information than that to complete a syllogism.
Maybe there's, like, new math or something.
No, I don't get it either, but I'm happy to have an opportunity to say I think it's pretty creepy having Peanuts still in the comics section EIGHT years after Charles Schulz's death...
This is hands-down the most stupid thing anybody has posted on Slog in a very long time. And that includes Mudede, which is saying a lot.
@8:
you GOT IT. charles schulz's empire soldiers on despite his death, so does fidel's.
its not even that tasteless.
perhaps we're reading into this too much. Charles Schulz created Snoopy. Fidel put Cuba on the map. Simple enuf.
I'm pretty sure #10 has it.
wow. not entertaining.
like, at all.
