In honor of the Olympics (yes, I know track and field is in the summer Olympics)
Mitch4 sends this in: “Probably no longer an in-joke of lawyers, but it used to be said of a good prosecutor that they “could get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich”.”
Dirk the Daring sends this in as a possible Arlo: “Perhaps the first panel deserves an Arlo award. It stopped me for a moment before I got to the second panel. I would have trouble believing this is accidental.”

From Dirk the Daring:
Though I still think it sounds like a song, I sure don’t recognize anything specific. Googling suggests that “lyrical and edible” refers to “the sensory and creative pairing of cannabis edibles with music to enhance experiences, or to tangible, artistic food items”, which I’m pretty sure isn’t what this is about!
Jack Applin sends in this language question: “Heart figures that her team might be able to achieve third place. Tall girl says “we might place”. To me, to “place” as a verb means to come in second (horse racing: 1st/2nd/3rd = win/place/show). Did tall girl truly think that their team might come in second, or is she using “place” to mean any of 1st/2nd/3rd place?”
Joshua K. and Hinches both sent this in: “This appears to be a joke about redaction or censorship, but it would seem like it would need to have *some* visible text to make sense.” and “Is this supposed to be some sort of political statement? What an I missing, besides all the dialogue??
Was this an earlier Sunday Wizard of Id at one time?
Jack Applin sends this in. “Chicken tenders are food. Also, “tender” means to offer, as tender a bid. I live in Colorado, but the strip taught me that corruption in South Africa is rampant. Do the foolish Floyd & Julius think that bids for public works are for sale, instead of a fair bidding process?”
Dan Sachs sends this in: “Huh?”
Not so much an LOL, as food for thought.
Usual John sends part of this series: “In this series, Spud is performing for the Maclellans at breakfast.”
Spud, a neighborhood friend of Wallace, is breaking out of his usual shyness.
Boise Ed sends this in: “I couldn’t pass up submitting this as an “oy.” It’s right there in the punch line.”
An OY by definition.
(Would Apple TV be an OY by high definition?)
Mitch4 sends this in: “Yes, this pun also tickled my funny bone! (And is even a trifle topical, for the “returning to the office” news theme.)”
A nod to the Winter Olympics:
Seattle sends this in: “Not too familiar with Plato & Socrates, but I believe it was hemlock that did one of them in. Five beers? I’ve got nothing…”
