Cartoons I don't get

[NancyNGA]

There are so many, where to start? Can anyone explain this one? Maybe it's not supposed to be funny?

(I believe it's from The New Yorker. Inside joke?)

 

[Buckeye]

Cowboy hats, Texans, Texas two-step is a dance, Cowboy shrink. I think there's a joke in there somewhere. I dunno.

 

[SeaBreeze]

Two step vs 12 step (AA - Alcoholics Anonymous), not a side splitter, but I think that's the gist of it.

I thought it was kind of cute The New Yorker does brainy cartoons...I dunno is that the word I'm looking for?

 

[NancyNGA]

Thanks Hoot N Annie and SeaBreeze. I get it. Yes, brainy is a good word, fur. Never heard of the two-step before.

Apparently Tom Delay did it one time on Dancing with the Stars.

I went to college the first time in Temple Tx in the early 80's, the two step was the dance.

Yep, the wife and I do the 2 step..Not fancy but we enjoy the way we do it..

Why do some men say "the wife" but women never say "the husband"?

Women do say "hubby", which I think sounds awful.

 

[NancyNGA]

My grandmother used to say "the old man." My grandfather said, "the old lady." :shrug:

True, some do.

Here is another one I don't get, but it's still funny, to me. (If it is X-rated, please delete ASAP )

 

[tnthomas]

Wow, I got no clue. :shrug:

Here's one I like:

 

[NancyNGA]

I don't get it, either.

 

[Pappy]

Nope.....:why:

 

[NancyNGA]

Maybe it's another dance step thing, or....

[BTW: Swing the lead (British & Australian old-fashioned) to pretend to be ill so that you do not have to work]

Or, maybe we're overthinking
