Truly enjoyed this comic strip. Its witty with multiple "in-between the lines" humor that allows for multiple readings. I re-read it a few times and found numerous literary functions (i.e. alliteration) and other comedic hyperbolic innuendos. The content is also suprisingly very applicable to our contemporary times demonstrating that along certain subject lines very little has changed. This allows for the reading to be extremely relatable in its form and function.
