Meanwhile, in a universe where Dada rules the funnies

In such a universe founded on absurdism and lack of meaning, the following comic would be appropriate:

Mother Goose and Grimm 7/18/08:
But, of course, this is not that world. Maybe the Mother Goose and Grimms of our two worlds got switched. I guess in the Dada-verse, amongst their funny page made of ice with frozen anchovies used as a crude writing representation, have, somewhere tucked beneath the Garfield where Jon just vomits for 3-panels (it's a week long series) is a Mother Goose and Grimm where the sheep dog makes another bad sheep pun, ala the rest of the week. Maybe that single moment of idiotic lucidity will tear down their entire anarchy as they realize life can have meaning. Cities will begin to grow, communication will become easier, art will find purpose, and at the center of it all will be a sheep pun made in a newspaper.

Either that or this was just a really bad strip.
