Rubes by Leigh Rubin for October 04, 2021

Seems that even fictional cops park in crosswalks and in front of fire hydrants.

“I’m sorry officer. But the sign only said ‘STOP’. It did not say ‘SMELL’. Since it did not say ‘Stop AND Smell’, I thought it would be wrong to smell them. I now understand that it’s a crime to NOT smell the roses.”

My alarm clock put a pot of Folgers for me as I’m sleeping…..

This one stinks.

With all the dogs in the neighbourhood that fragrance ain’t as fragrant as it could be

“A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.”

Must be Portland.

From a tiny letter change doth a great comic grow.

Tough to fine a rose with aroma any more. They’re out there but far fewer than before. It’s been bred out of them, I think. Or the aliens have stolen it. The Internet isn’t clear on that.

I absolutely love it! Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone would stop and do that?

good one, thanks leigh

So she’s supposed to obstruct traffic.

They need bicycle cops to petal around that.

Sorry, Cartoonist, but you worked too hard for this. Not funny
