Are there not other options, unless you have a dead battery in your remote and you're stuck in your chair? <br /><br />Let's just grant ducky license for one moment to critique the state of television. Does this not sound like the laziest, cliched form of criticism one could possibly shit out onto the comics page? Seriously, this sounds like a joke that Arsenio Hall used in his monologue about twenty years ago. Even if they still feature paternity testing segments on daytime television, to joke about it is played out, worn out, wrung dry of any humor. <br /><br />Bruce Tinsley is a character from a tv show. One of those dim bulbs, convinced of their own intelligence, with no self awareness. "I'm doing a series of strips about my unemployed alter ego. I'll spend a week plucking this string about his politically motivated dismissal because of those darned P.C. police that cause all the ills of right-thinking types like me. Now what? Hmmm, what do unemployed people do? I know, they sit on the couch and watch tv all day! There's another weeks worth of jokes right there. Baby daddy drama. Side effects of prescription drugs. Something about Oprah. Gosh those women love her. It's like a cult! That's gold, right there. Gold! I wonder if they give out Pulitzers for this stuff? Honey, do they give out Pulitzers for these funny drawings I do?

I will be handed a contract any moment now, and then I will be paid money to whine about how lazy all you welfare queens are, cry about the "liberal" media, and bemoan the death of truthful reporting, personal responsibility, and the American work ethic. ...Look for work?
