Really funny. Funny in a very "off" way, if that makes sense. Why can't I live in my dream world where alternative weekly papers have that kind of sensibility? ..I did have an idea a while for a concentration camp gag having to with a "complaints" box.
It's hard to say. I guess it's in the text, maybe. the language in a couple of them sounds like it's from a non-native English speaker; "I can not even hear myself think", for instance. that plays to the "unbalanced mind" that's evident in the drawing.
Seriously, this may be a HUGE delusion of mine, but i tend to think my weird english grammar enrichs my comics,(besidesleaving aside the OBVIOUS errors) i'm a big fan of Herriman patois and of early cajun music...talk about garbled dialects!

Somehow the "monster" in the "...Looks new..." panel makes me think only of George Bush. really funny, man.

Thanks pals

Jason: it's the 'lil beady eyes that give him the "Bush look"
Luke, if you have a minute, could you help me to pinpoint the quality of the "Off"?
Off because of the black humor or Off because they seem the product of a slightly unbalanced mind? both?
Or it is unpointpointable?

Aahh...the charms of an unbalanced mind!
