Some are not funny at all (to me at least) and they are still poorly drawn in my opinion.<br />Sometimes I enjoy well drawn cartoons that make chuckle.<br />That doesn't happen too often.<br />If there were more periodical publications with a steady volume of cartoons in them, then maybe the New Yorker wouldn't be seen as the créme de la créme of cartooning.Garrinchahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16183683650517909755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25473451.post-69937737968953703082014-04-02T10:50:35.263-04:002014-04-02T10:50:35.263-04:00I thought I was the only one who didn't get th...I thought I was the only one who didn't get the New Yorker cartoon gags.

And I totally agree - this is all subjective.<br /><br />You know, this is one of those things that's easy to get caught up in.<br /><br />I tried the New Yorker for years, never got in, got a little bitter, came to terms with it, and now I'm a little comfier with my place in the world of cartooning.<br /><br />I looked at this week's cartoons and about half made me laugh. (Well, as much as a cartoonists laughs. It's actually more of a slight smile and nod of approval.) Some were quite good, and I thought some fell into that very NYery niche that I think can be overrated.<br /><br />Rall riles people up; it's what he does, he's good at it, and he must like the attention. Good for him I guess.<br /><br />Everyone gets their hackles up from time to time. But at the end of the day I find the people I respect/admire are the ones who just keep their mouths shut, their heads down, and do the work.<br /><br />Move along people, nothing to see here...Mark Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05839199259226381830noreply@blogger.com
