Beer Goggles In The Funny Pages

December 31, 2008 By Jay Brooks

A friend sent me this comic strip from Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn. It exploits the concept of beer goggles for comedic effect. The strip ran four days ago on 12.27.

 
There’s a line in another comic strip, a favorite of mine — Bizarro by Dan Piraro — that this comic made me immediately think of. It goes something like this. There are three people, each espousing their philosophy relating to glass that’s half liquid, half air. “As a pessimist, I say ‘the glass is half-empty,’ as a optimist, I say ‘the glass is half-full,” as an optometrist, ‘I say what the heck difference does it make?'”
