History

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

Oh man. It clicked eventually, and when it did I chuckled heartily.

Looks like the dude is wearing blackface so his boss fired him.

The paint makes him look like he has blackface which is extremely offensive and often leads to people losing their jobs.

The first prank with the binoculars is an old, classic prank of putting black paint on the eye holes so it makes two circles on the person’s eyes who wears them. So he was one-upping the prank by tricking the guy into looking through a hole that would paint his entire face black.

Black paint or shoe polish?

And probably the only time I'm going to laugh at a blackface joke.
