Things I Want to Punch in the Face: New Yorker cartoons
I hate New Yorker cartoons. Like Jen, I think they’re dumber than dumb, and I hate when people tell me I’m just not getting them. There’s nothing to get, people.
That said, I do often love the articles. But I’ll skip the NYer entirely if I’m even remotely grumpy. Between the cartoons and their outrageously pretentious style of putting umlauts where they don’t belong, I’d rather pick dirt from under my fingernails.
