Reality Check by Dave Whamond for July 13, 2024

Okay, I get Newton and the apple, but does PAF mean something?

That’s how he invented calculus.

Bah. This guy gets credit he no deserves. Because gravity really discover by cat called Issac Mew Ton who is first one to shove theengs off a table.

I don’t see how that helped him develop his fig-based brand of cookies!

I see, now. After this happened, he just googled “gravity”, and published the results.

Which came first – the Newton or the Apple? The Fruit or the Computer? The Laptop or the Headache?

Must be an (S)macintosh

This is a very grave situation.

How ‘bout a good “boink” instead of “paf”? Can’t go wrong with a well timed boink!

Why does Newton have an X on his shirt? Oh, I see… Ralph thinks Newton’s a twit.

that’s gonna leave a mark…

Oh, the mavity!

Maybe PAF is a coded message about where Dave’s captors are keeping him and why there have been two Days by Dave without Dave this week. Or maybe Dave just likes messing with us.

Yo Isaac, the laptop goes on top of your lap… not your head!

I mean, it’s right there in the name!

You’re welcome.

Ouch!

When a renfair happens close to Cupertino.

Is the tree grinning?

I guess Dave only took the “Day” off today

Those dang I Pads!

EUREKA!

Don Martin sound effect alert:

PAF was used by Don in Mad Magazine #70, dated April 1962. It’s the sound effect of a huge extension-arm-launched boxing glove hitting a Doctor in the face …!

( thanks to Doug Gilford, madcoversite . kom )

Hope he understood the gravity of the situation.

☺️☺️☺️

“paf”??… must be kinda like “bonk”, only different!

And Apple, LLC sent Isaac a bill for $11,000,000,000 for Patent Infringement.

Ain’t data shame!

Must be an Apple MacBook Air

First thing that came to mind when I saw the comic,

“In London lies a knight A Pope interred.

His labor’s fruit a Holy wrath incurred.

You seek the orb that ought be on his tomb.

It speaks of Rosy flesh and seeded womb."

For extra credit, can you name the source without looking it up on the Web?

Patent Applied for?
