I’m fabulous. I’m an incredible dresser, I’ve got buckets of money, I’m a hoot-and-a-half and I’ve got a killer rack.

Genuinely Poor

Reposting because I've added a kicker panel. Thanks to @schraubd.bsky.social for the suggestion!

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

This cartoon has four panels. Each panel shows two men: A not-wealthy looking man with shaggy hair and some stubble, and a bald man in glasses, wearing a business suit and tie. Each panel shows them at a sidewalk with grass growing in the background.

PANEL 1

Shaggy is wearing a wrinkled collared shirt and jeans. Necktie is wearing a gray suit with a tie with a dot pattern.

It’s bright daytime. Shaggy, with his back turned to Necktie, is looking at and poking a smartphone, and, in the helpful way people so often do in the first panel of my cartoons, talking aloud to himself. Necktie is turning to look at, and yell at, Shaggy.

SHAGGY: I can’t find a job and I’m out of money… Time to google “food stamps.”

NECKTIE: Food stamps are for people who are genuinely poor. If you were poor, you wouldn’t own a smartphone, would you?

PANEL 2

A caption says “one week later.”

From the light, it appears to be early evening. Shaggy is wearing a plaid shirt and Black pants, and has a backpack; Necktie is wearing a pinstripe suit and a tie with horizontal stripes.

Shaggy is looking worried and has a hand on his chest; Necktie is sternly talking to, and pointing at, Shaggy.

SHAGGY: I sold my phone, but now I’m out of money again.

NECKTIE: So sell your car. No one who owns a car is poor.

PANEL 3

A caption says “one month later.”

The same two men, on a similar patch of sidewalk. Shaggy is sitting on the curb, slumping. Necktie looks very cheerful.

SHAGGY: Now I’ve got no money for food, no phone for job hunting, and no car to get to a job!

NECKTIE: Excellent! Now you’re genuinely poor!

PANEL 4

The same scene, a moment later. Shaggy, looking hopeful. Necktie grins.

SHAGGY: So now you’re okay with me getting food stamps?

NECKTIE: Nope!

TINY KICKER PANEL UNDER THE CARTOON

Shaggy is talking to Barry the Cartoonist.

SHAGGY: So how do I get food stamps, anyway?

BARRY: Call them for an appointment, then drive to their office to apply.

MAGA is crashing out harder over Trump putting a Qatari military base in the US than they ever did over him being all over the Epstein files

And he’s a dancing machine. Passersby are either delighted or just move on like they see dancing frogs on Clark Street every day.
