Nor do I think juvenile humor is funny. I just happened to write a cartoon about some upper-class people saying fart in a particular context and I thought it was funny. But changing the word ruins the gag. Just to clarify. <br />@other Anonymous...you are not crazy, that is a piece of pie. I often put one in my cartoons.

I think a <i>little</i> blood on the finger would've been okay, though, and funny. I'll never understand "family" newspapers who run so many comic strips that are all about how horrible and oppressive it is to be in families.Lois2037https://www.blogger.com/profile/04776736493772592187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-89571009575506455462010-02-05T17:11:46.428-08:002010-02-05T17:11:46.428-08:00If you can't use the word "fart" per...If you can't use the word "fart" perhaps a descriptive version such as "butt-burp"?

There are so many uptight people in the U.S. that consider words like "fart" to be verging on profanity that they (the editors) would be swamped with complaints. It wouldn't happen in big cities, but the rest of the country can be amazingly "backwoods". I know it's silly, but that's America.Pirarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02340738828876740970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-7121137442093816272010-02-05T13:42:12.738-08:002010-02-05T13:42:12.738-08:00"Fart" is prohibited?
