Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for August 08, 2011

Yikes! Scary!

He died as he lived … lazy, buzzed and zoned out in front of the TV.

Put a Pabst Blue Ribbon in his hand…………….

he stoped loving her today.

Assuming the can on the TV is an empty and the one at his right hand is nearly so, a good question might be “WHERE’S THE CAN?” (and Kreole, a PBR would be my choice of beverage on the long, dry road south…)

He never looked so much like himself.

That’s the unliving room.

@Coyote- Good one. Haven’t been there or done that- yet.

He looks pretty comfy.

That’s just creepy…

Where’s the remote?

A new trend.

Bury me not on the lone prairieGive me a comfy chair and my color t.v.Put a cold drink near to my handFor my journey to that promised landHave all my friends come to seeTell them the drinks are on meHave me carried by six men, good and trueTo the place where I’ll pass from viewAnd as you throw the ground on top of mePlease on my grave, don’t you pee.

That is one creepy, scary viewing!!!

Nothing on but “Six Feet Under.”

Getting there, is half the fun.

Nirvania?

Anyone who watched TV was already dead from the neck up.

Can’t look both, dignified and natural. Pick one or the other.

Maybe Wiley is contemplating his own mortality.

Must be C-SPAN 2 on the tube.

The ultimate man cave!

Pretty good, wndrwrhg!

Not so natural! He still has his clothes on.

old jewish solution for living to a ripe old age: “…don’t stop breathing.”

The heads of most deceased persons are usually at the other end of the caskets. Apparently most of these cartoonists have attended very few funerals.

DOGSNIFF Have some respect. We buried members of the band and the fans.on that long strange trip. I myself might have died of overwork had I not chosen to follow the band. The only illusion/dellusion was when we spoke of our day jobs. The Dead is dead, long live the Dead. Wanna buy some beads, man.

Copy and paste to my will…

At least when they close the lid he’ll finally have a flat screen.

The idea of getting this strip on a T-shirt (right-hand sidebar) is interesting — it’d make a great gift for a mortician! Although I doubt he’d wear it to work…

The women will harp up to and past the very end.

Wonder what dead people watch.

The Walking Dead,True Blood,Vampire Diaries,Deadwood,NBC’s new fall comedies…

I know I only have a decade or 2 left, but I’m determined to enjoy what I have left. I watch lots of TV when I’m home all recorded in advance except for morning news (so I can pause while I do something that precludes watching, like writing this and parts of my workout where I’m on my back).

Another great Non Sequitur on funerals and absurdity! This makes the Death Cartoon Collection on The Family Plot Blog: http://thefamilyplot.wordpress.com/category/death-cartoons/

Where’s the bong?

Me too—LOL.

He needs both the TV and the beer to find his way to Heaven. “Go towards the Lite…”

Hmmm? Casket position reversed…..

That’s it- I’m changing the instructions for my funeral service…
