Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for June 27, 2021

Ooooo….crossover!!!

Follow code red. Drown the fink and take over the kingdom.

War averted by first responders …

… risking their lives …

… by spraying the king.

“Wrong strip” ROFLOL

Next panel, fire fighters hung upside down in the King’s dungeon!

Yeah! That will calm him down…..

And here I always thought that the King of Id was a drip.

Presumably the idea is that the cool water will cool down the hothead enough to stop him taking out his anger on his country and another country.

“We” or “he” started a war?

Fink is all washed up …

So hosing him down doesn´t make him angry, good to know.

(finds parts of the cartoon involving these pieces of dialogue to have had been unnecessary: “WRONG STRIP”; “AGAIN”)

George Bush played golf?

Can Wizard experts explain this? It looks like one of the firemen ran to the scene carrying a rolled up fire hose. But he never connected it to the water tank, so how did he get water pressure?

Ant And The Ardvark. That was a funny cartoon!!!

Good thing for Id that the Fink doesn’t play golf too often.

Now we know how WWI started…

The last four years the code’s color was ORANGE

Am I crazy or do those guys look like Doozers?

Any time I think I might try golf, I remember the boss I had would come to work on Monday and be an absolute terror to deal with until Wednesday – screaming at everyone (except his boss, of course), swearing, arguing for no reason, name-calling, threatening, assigning ridiculous crappy duties, etc., every time he played poorly on Sunday – which was more often than not; 2/3 to 3/4 of the time. Liked my job otherwise, but hated that jerk’s behavior so much that I took a lower paying job to get away. Funny, but the week I told him I was quitting, he had some eye infection and couldn’t play. He was so nice and said what a great employee I was and how I’d be missed.

I think being sprayed with a firehose would make him lose his temper too.

We all know what “Code Green” means at Disneyland, don’t we? That was actually my first thought on reading this.

The King is somehow distantly related to the 45th President, right?

In my mind’s eye I picture the whole fire department hanging upside down in the dungeon.
