Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 16, 2010

“Yo, Caller! Imma let you finish, but Crazy Frog had the best ringtone of all time!”

Who’d want to call a jerk?

Telemarketers!! Which doesn’t invalidate baslim’s statement.

Kanye West. A true jerk.

GBT must have been sick, or this was submitted around Carnival time.

G.B. Trudeau gets some weeks off during the year, and the syndicate runs re-runs (“Flashbacks”). Doesn’t Mark’s silhouette look rather devilish in panel three?

Better yet, outsource Sarah Palin!

wait till Thudpucker gets to the “near-death helicopter story”, so Mark’s dime can drop re. “making an impact”.

Sometimes the jerk is called because he’s the only (readily available) resource for his particular product or service.

Or he’s a relative.

Toby Keith ring tones all taken?

When it comes to this comic, I really enjoy the segments with Havoc and his (dare I say?) “sidekick”, Jeff.

But I can’t deny the things Thudpucker said in panel 3 make good sense. Your ringtone does tell those who hear it a little something about yourself.

I should know: A now-retired co-worker’s favourite ringtone is the Batman theme song (remember Adam West and Burt Ward?). When we heard that, there was no question whose phone that was.

My ringtone is the “Internationale”, the anthem of the Socialist Party. And yeah, it does say something about me.
