She forgot to factor in density.

hmm i got my doubts

Time for someone to go a diet…or to quit walking on frozen lakes.

“Have you ever met my neighbor, “Jenny Craig?”

They may have changed her name; but she is still F.B.

The ice didn’t have a chance

If she wore high heels, she’d find oil.

why wasn’t this a joke about a portly GUY?!

And it wasn’t an fair (equal) comparison:

The dinosaur’s weight is supported by 4 larger feet compared to her 2.

Looks like that ice is maybe 4 inches thick at the most. That must have been a very light weight dinosaur on a diet.

It’s a comic. No other choice, really.

The heliumsaurus was not nearly as heavy as it looked.

Because!

On lake ice its all about weight distribution and location of springs .

About an inch and a half will do. You can check the thickness by looking for cracks. But maybe wear a life jacket.

Cawk?

Poor fat broad! At least it wasn’t deep….

It may be because of the proportions of the feet!

At least the ice broke in the shallow end. Evidently, her feet were acclimated to the cold so she’s only upset over getting wet feet. Oooo, I hate that.

Orrr… ☺

Somebody should tell her that her crack is showing!!

And That’s why they call her “The Fat Broad” !!

A likely excuse!

That’s a lake???

The ice thickness wasn’t all that it was cracked up to be.

That last line will one day evolve into its application to jars.

Lucky for her the water isn’t very deep.

C’mon, she’s not fat, just pleasantly obtuse…

I’m guessing the dinosaur had better weight distribution.

It would have been funnier if the blonde had fallen through. Then it would have been a joke about making assumptions rather than about weight. Punching up is always cleverer than punching down.

What ever happened to the word voluptuous?

She should get a refund for that tummy tuck

Yeah, THAT’S the reason.

I find it sad that people’s “humor” has gotten to the point that they can no longer just read a comic, and take it at face value, instead of dissecting it, and attempting to interpret what the cartoonists are saying. Why even bother reading comics if your humor is that non-existent, or you are trying to interpret it to your own way of thinking?
