Mike du Jour by Mike Lester for May 12, 2023

Just aim at that wall over there and floor it!

Some of the sensors are in different locations. Some female crash test dummies are “pregnant” with different weight and sensor placements.

Were they allowed to get pregnant or made to get pregnant?

And they ask for directions……..

And after the crash they say “see, I told you to watch that semi!”.

Bravo!

They pretend to be female by wearing wigs and dresses.

What about directions? Huh? Why do the male dummies think they know it all? They’re afraid to admit they don’t know it all!

LMAO.

Must be referring to my late, sainted mother, The Queen of the Backseat Drivers. Claimed that after she’d worked a couple of years in the Connecticut State Motor Vehicle Accident Division, back in the 1930s, she’d never wanted to get a driver’s license … but she was an expert on telling everyone else how to drive.

The difference is simple. Like husbands everywhere the Male crash test dummy, died before the female crash test dummy, because he wanted to!

Such bravery from a comic strip! Good Show Mr. Lester. I read it, laughed and I thought I should return to write this positive comment. This simple, funny comic that plays on the age-old stereotype that women are not considered to be especially gifted drivers, however they personally identify as gifted navigators, is the innocent humor being attacked daily…so again…good show. Speaking unofficially; your fans appreciate your trust.

Having worked with dummies (crash test that is) for a number of years I can attest to the fact that neither of them can drive. However, the other dummies…

Most crash-test dummies are considered non-binary (except the digital ones).

Good one…

I thought this kind of misogynistic attempts at “humor” died 20 years ago.

Even a crash-test dummy could see how sexist this is.

Stupid and sexist stereotypes. I do not see anything funny in this comic.
