Title: Is it funny? Does it suck? Did I waste my time posting it?
Post by: PYLdude on June 17, 2008, 02:23:20 AM

Came across this reading the Daily News today...couldn't help but get a chuckle out of it.

Also, probably despite my better judgment, I decide why not post it here and see what everybody thinks of it.

Monday's Chuckle Bros. strip, with a not-so-subtle reference to a classic show... (http://\"http://www.creators.com/comics/chuckle-bros/20665.html\")

I didn't think that was funny at all.  The set-up was too obvious.  If it was a bit more subtle, I can understand, but "sigh", no good.

I got a good laugh out of it, but to be honest I think they could have skipped the logo and it would have been slightly more subtle.

Just sayin', that's all!

There is no way Joe Average gets the joke if you do that.

I chuckled. Unfortunately, Lemon's right.

Yes, he is.

I think if you left the other sign in, you might still be able to get the joke across...but it would require a little too much thought on most people's parts.
