Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for January 30, 2010

How come the poor iceburg never got no notoriety?

It was a victim of it’s acting ability – it was a ham burg.

That theory’s unsinkable.

IF AL GORE HAD BEEN BORN BEFORE 1912 GLOBAL WARMING COULD HAVE SAVED THE TITANIC!

AL 154…Good point.

AL154 Not only that, but there would be world peace, no famine, and a woman would be president of GM ( well, maybe IBM)

Oh, the ice-related gags are really floe-ing today! Can we put a freeze on them, please?

California is the Titanic, a sinking ship.

No way! I know there are a few more groaners out there waiting to be let loose. Also, I like AL154’s and Lewreader,s points, but don’t forget that the lame will walk, the blind will see…

The ship was Titanic. The iceberg is titanic.

Okay, Wiley… did you just make a mistake or are you being really, really sneaky here…

Your “Titanic” has only three funnels. The real Titanic had four… except that one of them was a dummy, added just for aesthetic balance. So… did you draw three because you didn’t look it up, or because you wanted to see if any of us knew the Titanic only had three functional smokestacks?

A few of days ago it was Noah’s Ark, now the Titanic… Wiley, what’s up with the big boat conspiracy theories this week? Planning a cruise? XD

Ok, I know everyone who survived is long since gone and we can’t go back, but I’ve always wondered; how come if they knew getting in the water would be bad, they didn’t all climb onto something that was floating in the water… like a huge chunk of ice?!?!

Probably those huge chunks of ice were slippery and hard to get a hold of let alone climb up on.

Unless Wiley’s keel is made of lead, his ship would be upside-down anyway with that amount of draft

The iceberg did get notoriety, they named a lettuce after it :)

AL154, you’re making that “genius” button look bad.

Hand it back in to gocomics please.

Okay, Metaphor Squad, get those deck chairs ready!

Pathos Platoon, cue the orchestra.

And would somebody go below decks and see wtf all that shooting is about?!

That iceberg suffered meltdown.

Is that ship biggest? No, I think it looks too small to go on and near the iceberg.

if you read the headlines….the titanic was hit by an iceberg. so the iceberg is the bad guy, and got plenty on notoriety. with the water temps of the winter seas, people had about 3 to 5 minutes to survive. no chance to even get to something afloat.

According to White Star Line advertising, the iceberg should have sunk, so did it give birth to tort lawyers and product liability?

bleeep the iceberg, full speed ahead wot!

Nothing trite about that big hunk of ice they could become a dead metaphor

@grazer, I think you’ve pointed out the tip of the mountain.

I thought the Titanic had 4 smoke stacks?

This was a classic comic strip–probably one of the best of the year!

poor taste. people died. who would joke about the twin towers?

poor taste. people died. who would joke about the twin towers?

The Titanic sank April 15, 1912, give us some time before we joke about the twin towers openly in this country.

Like this is the first time the Titanic has ever been joked about? Please…

The S.S. Obama, staying the course.

staying the course was bush…
