Odd to think that this is one of the most adult strips in the entire Little Dee series. :)
I enjoy writing nugget jokes like this. The tennis is mentioned in a list of throw-away silliness, but then it shows up again in the punchline. Ah, the craft of humor. I love it.
I like the typically Ted sweet-tooth answer of “Swedish Desserts”.
Hmmm, “whacked” hard enough to be implanted into a stone wall? That’s gotta hurt.
@War Pig, I spent many Saturday morning hours as a child loving the Coyote and Road Runner cartoons more than any other. :)
Never underestimate the importance of jokes only adults can comprehend. When Sesame Street was translated, underestimate it they did; as a result Sesame Street practically unknown in non-English speaking countries.
Heh, @Frank, I didn’t mean that the joke was complex (is that what you mean?), but that it involved suggested kissies.
@Christopher. Oh, me too. Anvils off telephone wires, jet engines with handle bars, Vitamin ABCDEFGH-ETC, spinning spiked mace tops, dynamite sticks with needle noses and wings, massive Rube Goldberg contraptions that only guaranteed a larger whuppin’ for old Wile E. And the “scientific” names for them; “Hot Roddicus Supersonicus”, “Famishus Vulgari”, etc.
One thing about old Wile E Coyote (Super Genius), is that he was TOUGH. He could take more abuse than an M-1 tank.
Another fave was the Tasmania Devil (early on) mostly against Bugs Bunny. “Why for you bury me in the cold, cold ground?” ROAR!
