What a strange cartoon...

Thoughts?

obviously just another fat hater. Hopefully in the cartoon one fell on him!

Not just another fat hater, but another lousy cartoonist. Horribly drawn, and a lousy joke. I'm ashamed of him.

Erm, I'm not quite sure what to make of that. Was it just a random thought on the part of the cartoonist, or was it intended to illustrate a point? If the latter, then I think he/she has probably failed.

I actually think it's funny.

I don't know if it's actually fat hate or not, but I never understand cartoons so I'm the wrong person to ask.

I did notice that many of the rocks and mushrooms are awfully phallic.

Obviously the artist hasn't had any FORMAL cartoon training.

Everybody knows that when fatties fall from the sky, they don't go splat with all that mess. They BOUNCE! Duh!

Seriously, some people and their lack of ACME training it bewilders the mind!

Truthfully though sometimes art is like poetry, up for interpretation and we give the artist either too much or too little credit. I was never good at poetry and my art pretty much says what it says..."Fat girls are hot, the end".

My interpretation of the cartoon --

Life is difficult for thin, hip, smart people. You're just walking along, reading your book, and before you know it some freak weather system has sucked all the fatties out of the trailer park and is raining them down on your head. You'll probably die.

Lesson? Stay away from fat people because, aside from having no reason to exist other than as the butt of mean yet HI-larious jokes and, of course, being the cause of global warming, they will likely crush you.

Have at it!

Free Thinker seems to have the depth and breadth of it.

All I could see was a prophecy; a plague of fatties will destoy your peace of mind and all you have to protect yourself is knowledge (represented by the book).

Maybe he's saying that gravity is harder on fat people.
