12:59 this strip is actually from a belgian comic called "imbattable" (unbeatable) wich was translated to "mister invincible". It credits itself as only being possible in comics as the superhero's sole power is the ability to go through panels. It's actually pretty original and quite smart with the usage of this power and others like it.
5:43 So, he gave up smoking at 45, stopped drinking at 59, gave up red meat (probably went on a low cholesterol diet) at 69, and died at 77. That actually sounds totally reasonable.
Yeah, I mean, once you get to that kind of age, that's probably where you start seeing the consequences of your life choices. It's easy to think your body can take anything while you're still in your 20's or early 30's.
I like how the narrators all end up sharing a little bit about themselves with each meme, it’s like they’re having a conversation with me and it’s very comforting
And then there's robin just forcing his teat down your throat and you can't help but sucking on for dear life. Not because you have to, but because you want to.
i actually hate that, im just trying to watch memes (this channel has a good selection and i refuse to actually use reddit) and every 5 minutes its like "when i was seven i was forced to eat dog food 😔😔😔"
13:26 this is from a french comic called "invincible". Basically, the main characters have powers that can only work from a comic perspective. It can be confusing at times, but it is extremely creative. It was created in 2013 and gets a new issue every now and then

That's your subjective opinion; I'm sure there are Gen Z's who would disagree with you. HUmor is subjective and relative what you think is good humor differs from person to person and what is consider funny changes from generation to generation. For example Archie Bunker is a character from All In The Family that's extremely racist and people found it funny in the 70s. That wouldn't fly these days because people are less racially insensitive these days then they were in the 70s. @@osheridan

7:39 One of my mom's (many) cats, Max, had horribly mutilated his claws by constantly trying to sharpen them in wooden shelves that were far too tough to run them through. He just kept making them worse and putting them in more pain, which made him want to sharpen more to get rid of that pain. He was much more lively after he got declawed and I'm sure he's happier for it. These medical procedures exist for the purpose of improving the animals' lives; not for your selfish desire to stop getting pricked by your cat. Besides, cats can not only bite you, but can also punch you, so you are not any safer from their wrath for longer than a month, anyway.
I can understand that, but I still feel like it’s not a good thing to do in most cases. Like, it’s basically removing their fingers. I can’t imagine how miserable it would make a cat who didn’t need it.
@@nopenopity-nope6621 Yeah, but assuming that everyone who does it is just tired of their cat clawing stuff isn't right either. There are rare circumstances where declawing is right, even if it is inhumane the majority of the time.
sometimes we need to amputate a person's legs due to medical reasons, but we don't just remove the legs because we are tired of putting on shoes everyday. same reasons on why a cat needs to be declawed.
@@ryanclemons1 Oh, right, just predict that he would start sharpening on bed frames, shelves, and the insides of the walls out of nowhere after he's already lived with her for over three years and done no such thing. Hell, she had that furniture ten years before she had Max, but yeah, replace it *_after_* he's already permanently and irreparably ripped his claws apart.
@ashleyjohnson1407 Cool pointing out suflur hexaflouride is pretty cool. The heaviest non-toxic gas, perflourobutane, makes your voice even lower. They are both non-toxic, but it is actually bit difficult to get them out of your lungs due to their weight, creating a risk of suffocation if you are not careful.
7:40 Okay funny as the comic is fr don't declaw your cats. It's a surgical procedure which removes *part of their toe,* the entire first knuckle in fact. Not to mention if your cat somehow gets outside (don't think you're immune the occasional accident, it can happen whether you let them out or a guest or child did), they will be missing their main line of defense. Not only this, but studies have found cats that are declawed are more likely to experience depression and anxiety, wobbly balance etc, they are *genuinely distressed and hindered* by their lack of claws and toes. And other than this there is a possibility the claw will still grow despite missing the first knuckle or anywhere for the claw to *come out* and will keep growing continually so you'll have to take your cat to the vet again to what may look like a painful tumor in their paw removed. Don't look up pictures, I assure you that you do NOT wanna see what it looks like. Downright nauseating. I've heard people argue that declawing isn't any different from spaying or neutering, but the fact is it simply isn't the same at all. There are far more cons to leaving them in tact when you don't intend to breed them than getting them 'fixed'. There are a decent amount of health issues that crop up, not to mention their lifespan can be shortened by sexual activity. It's not just beneficial to the owner to get them spayed/neutered, but declawing is a purely selfish and superficial procedure people make when they don't want to deal with issues they really should have known very well they'd have to deal with when purchasing or adopting their kitty. Female cats particularly can have their health impacted by pregnancies, and male cats experience *more anxiety* when not neutered. They are more territorial, more stressed, and more likely to spray around the house outside the litterbox than a neutered cat, which doesn't have all those hormones driving them to freak out about every strange cat they might so much as smell through the door.
5:57 I remember a story about my great grandma who lived to 87. Her doctor was really surprised when he found after effects of tuberculosis on some rutinal check up. It's bc my great grandma had no medical record of tuberculosis so he asked her about it. She replied that she indeed had tuberculosis during ww1 but figured it wasn't severe enough to make a trip to the doctor dueing ongoing fighting in our town. Other than that she had a stroke and broke her leg (she was cleaning windows when the stroke happened), recovered fully from both and died of old age a few years later
That's not really why it's a problem though, they are only in pain if your vet sucks and like with any other surgery it can cause infections, taking care of it appropriately is necessary. The problem is that when declawing your cat you are amputating the outer most bone in their paws for each claw, it's like cutting off the part of our fingers with nails on. It changes how they can walk. It literally disfigures your poor cat. That's why it's animal cruelty, not because surgeries cause pain...
Declawing is roughly equivalent to removing the cat's first knuckle. If you wouldn't partially amputate every finger on someone's hands for wrecking a couch, you wouldn't declaw a cat.
it's a surgery, like if there's something horribly wrong with the claw. similar to how appendages can require amputation. it's not something you just do for the hell of it
I like this subreddit because it reminds me of my aunt, she’s the wisest and nicest person you’ll ever meet, she took care of me when my mother wouldn’t. Love you, aunt Debbie.
I've got a real soft spot for comics like these. years ago I would bring the daily newspaper to an elderly couple that lived across the street, and they would save the comics for me as a reward.
12:10 traditionally, Hanukkah isn’t a holiday, it’s a festival of lights, i don’t get presents on Hanukkah, i do get chocolate coins and play fun games tho
9:01 yes having a cat that makes robbers stuck to the couch would be nice but what are the cops gonna do? Make him _stand up_ and put his hands behind his back?
5:57 for me it's my great aunt. She's still alive (87) and she is morbidly obese, smokes two packs a day, and is constantly drinking wine. I don't know how she's still alive. She outlived both her sisters who had healthier lifestyles, the youngest (my grandma) who stopped smoking at 30 something, but still got lung cancer and died at 69 (nice), and the middle sister having some disease (I forgot what it was) and pretty much starved to death from it, at 71.
If you liked that comic with the kitty and invincible, there's a whole two tomes (48pages) of him! His superpower is seeing and going through the comic borders. There's a lot of other characters with power involving pages, words and perspective. The creator is a genius, check it out!
I dont know about a movie, but there was an episode of one of the many "Twilight Zone" knock-offs where a scientist creates nanites to fix all flaws in his biology, and the nanites decided that "not having eyes in the back of his head" was a flaw, so they fixed that. Other things that were flaws included not having defensive stinging cells like a man-o-war
At 9:30 "That Guy" is actually a genius. He says that, they argue a bit, and then leave. But the whole thing was staged and acted out, so that the cops look for someone who looks like the bank teller.
I love the far side collections. I have all of them & read them anytime I'm at my grannies house. Now most jokes are funny some are confusing & others you don't get but the ones you do get are hilarious. I feel like this sub reddit is mostly filled with the far side things.
6:45 Ok so the actual joke in why did the chicken cross the road is that it's an anti joke (where you think its setting up to a punchline and is to be expected but it's actually not and the suddenness or unexpectedness makes you laugh) Where someone would ask you why you think the chicken cross the road and you're expecting some bullshizz and whatnot but its actually just a simple "oh, to get to the other side" For example Knock knock Whos there Adam Adam who And adam suddenly bursts into sobs as he realizes his mother's dementia is getting worse

7:39 To be clear, any Leslie Nielsen film that’s a comedy is good. If I remember right, he used to be more typecast as the leading man in serious/romance movies. Airplane! was his first comedy movie and what started his career as a comedy actor. I think they got him for that movie partially because they wanted someone who audiences would associate with being serious.

About counting sheep, I have tried it, doesn't really work for me, cause then I have to keep track of what number I'm on and that just keeps me up. What does work is just imagining sheep jumping over a fence and going 'sheep... sheep.... sheep...' as a way to occupy my mind to keep it from wandering and the repetition helps calm me down.
"Counting sheep" was meant for farmers, to think of their livestock and list their names for example, since most people dont have sheep, the modern equivalent would be like "count all the levels on that videogame you like" or "remember the full names of the characters from that cool book"
i'm one of the early millennials pioneers (when internet was introduced during my teen years, but a bit earlier for me since my father telecommuted for his job), and i literally grew up reading these in the newspaper comics, even Mad Magazine when it was still around, so they bring fond memories to me :3 webcomics can be hit or miss, i'll admit, but it's so wonderful we're still carrying on the tradition of illustrated cartoons while adding a new generation of humor. true evolution of the meme behavior.
At 10:10 The whole point is to get you to focus on that one thing. It's meant to be so mundane that you get bored and fall asleep. If you are thinking of anything else, it ruins it.
Hey Robin, you might be thinking of an episode of The Outer Limits from the late 90s where a dude grew eyes on the back of his head because nanobots in his body were trying to improve him.

5:59 I had a grandfather who was the driver for the Time/Life photographer and was both at Hiroshima and Nagasaki right after they went off and he ended up living the longest of all my grandparents
that "died anyway" one is ringing very true to me currently because my mom is the epitome of healthy living, walks like 2 miles a day, is vegan, just a really healthy person. and yet, she was closest to dying from some heart problems when me and my siblings all thought she would outlive our overweight dad by several years.

10:27 it's the Zoo Wee Mama squirrel ordered off Wish
2:57 the Chemical Engineer one could be replaced with “mixing fluids” “contaminated fluids” or “wrong fluid has been put in the car.”
7:46 I COMPLETELY AGREE. DECLAWING CAN BE CONSIDERED ABUSE AS IT PUTS YOUR CAT IN A LOT OF PAIN AND CAN LEAD TO INFECTIONS.
That's not really why it's a problem though, they are only in pain if your vet sucks and like with any other surgery it can cause infections, taking care of it appropriately is necessary. The problem is that when declawing your cat you are amputating the outer most bone in their paws for each claw, it's like cutting off the part of our fingers with nails on. It changes how they can walk. It literally disfigures your poor cat. That's why it's animal cruelty, not because surgeries cause pain...
Declawing is roughly equivalent to removing the cat's first knuckle. If you wouldn't partially amputate every finger on someone's hands for wrecking a couch, you wouldn't declaw a cat.
@@cassandra2860 exactly
it's a surgery, like if there's something horribly wrong with the claw. similar to how appendages can require amputation. it's not something you just do for the hell of it
It’s like someone taking a child’s knowledge of how to read.
I like this subreddit because it reminds me of my aunt, she’s the wisest and nicest person you’ll ever meet, she took care of me when my mother wouldn’t. Love you, aunt Debbie.
I've got a real soft spot for comics like these. years ago I would bring the daily newspaper to an elderly couple that lived across the street, and they would save the comics for me as a reward.
12:10 traditionally, Hanukkah isn’t a holiday, it’s a festival of lights, i don’t get presents on Hanukkah, i do get chocolate coins and play fun games tho
It’s a tradition more than a holiday at this point
@@R0DBS it was never a holiday, it’s a festival
9:10 Bold of you to assume the police could get the cat off
The cats like Thor's hammer, only the worthy can lift the cat
Very poor choice of words.
@@laurentfabron bruh naw
fun fact: a lot of dogs actually don't attack intruders if they havent been trained to
Hearing Robin say “boobin” made my entire life😂
4:48 imagine a carwash company trains a bunch of pigeons to fly around and deliberately crap on windows.
9:01 yes having a cat that makes robbers stuck to the couch would be nice but what are the cops gonna do? Make him _stand up_ and put his hands behind his back?
5:57 for me it's my great aunt. She's still alive (87) and she is morbidly obese, smokes two packs a day, and is constantly drinking wine. I don't know how she's still alive. She outlived both her sisters who had healthier lifestyles, the youngest (my grandma) who stopped smoking at 30 something, but still got lung cancer and died at 69 (nice), and the middle sister having some disease (I forgot what it was) and pretty much starved to death from it, at 71.
2:15 lol the duck song in 5 seconds
🎶 the duck walked up to the lemonade stand🎶
good boomer humor as its own sub? huh, never thought of that idea
If you liked that comic with the kitty and invincible, there's a whole two tomes (48pages) of him! His superpower is seeing and going through the comic borders. There's a lot of other characters with power involving pages, words and perspective. The creator is a genius, check it out!
I dont know about a movie, but there was an episode of one of the many "Twilight Zone" knock-offs where a scientist creates nanites to fix all flaws in his biology, and the nanites decided that "not having eyes in the back of his head" was a flaw, so they fixed that.
Other things that were flaws included not having defensive stinging cells like a man-o-war
At 9:30 "That Guy" is actually a genius. He says that, they argue a bit, and then leave. But the whole thing was staged and acted out, so that the cops look for someone who looks like the bank teller.
I love the far side collections. I have all of them & read them anytime I'm at my grannies house. Now most jokes are funny some are confusing & others you don't get but the ones you do get are hilarious. I feel like this sub reddit is mostly filled with the far side things.

Ok so the actual joke in why did the chicken cross the road is that it's an anti joke (where you think its setting up to a punchline and is to be expected but it's actually not and the suddenness or unexpectedness makes you laugh)
Where someone would ask you why you think the chicken cross the road and you're expecting some bullshizz and whatnot but its actually just a simple "oh, to get to the other side"
For example
Knock knock
Whos there
Adam
Adam who
And adam suddenly bursts into sobs as he realizes his mother's dementia is getting worse
I thought the joke was that he got hit by a car and thus went to "the other side"
@@osheridan I too was also confused by the chicken joke until I learned what an antijoke meme is and also came upon antijoke memes with the logo of a chicken and everything just connected ykno?
I was today years old when I learned what the punchline actually meant.
7:39 To be clear, any Leslie Nielsen film that’s a comedy is good. If I remember right, he used to be more typecast as the leading man in serious/romance movies. Airplane! was his first comedy movie and what started his career as a comedy actor. I think they got him for that movie partially because they wanted someone who audiences would associate with being serious.
In regards to 5:15-6:00 into the video, my grandmother smoked packs upon packs of cigarettes and she lived to be 90, she passed due to her age but at legit the LAST steps of her life, she developed lung cancer, while already passing
@namelessartvoid2253 That is some mad life skills. I wish I could just make my health issues wait until I was already dying.
1:00
Edit along with the snappy dialogue legit convinced me to stay the whole video. And I barely watch videos like this anymore! 😂
10:45 OMG its the TF2 Sniper
It's no accident that most of these are Gary Larson comics and rightfully so.
I loved this! Sometimes I just want some wholesome silly laughs. Thanks EmKay!
HAHAHA... Robin modelling the merch is a thing of pure Beauty...
11:35 I think the joke is that stairway to heaven is a led Zeppelin song and highway to hell is ac/DC (and now I feel old so thx)
13:51
There is a song about that
Sweet bod - Lemon Demon
That sexy sweet solution 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😘😘🤤🤤🤤😋😋😋😋😋
2:06 ah yes,the duck song,a classic one
0:25 pumpkin butt
8:25 plot twist
9:53 if you take off the first 3 panels it becomes gen z humor
13:18 I have actually read the book where this is from. He is Mr. Invincible and his superpower is going through the comic panels and being french.
My grandmother had polio as a child and late stage Alzheimer's and breast cancer later in life and lived to be 80 years old.
i love how half of these are from far side 12:27
10:17 my brain thinks that the act of counting is important when I try to count sheeps. So when I am almoat falling asleep I'm jolted awake be the feeling that I am forgetting something and need to be awake.
I'm kinda mad he didn't start singing the duck song at the comic where the duck was asking for grapes.
"Then he waddled away, waddle waddle! Til the very next day!"
cuz the comic is a ripoff and he didn't know
10:35 Holy shit it's Sniper from Team Fortress 2
Hes about to bludgeon his wife to death with a golf trophy
I read that as „from Team Fortnite 2“ and had an out-of-body experience
1:59 I love how someone just redrew the Duck Song in a comic format
The funny thing is, it looks like it's at a bar or something... I don't drink, but the bottles in the background look like wine bottles which is in fact grapes
@@savannahwestover7144 I kind of love that, thank you for pointing that out /gen
@@RikkiLove0317 You’re welcome!
8:34 Chris Cringle, the OG Lumberjack. Gathering wood, be made toys. Another actual alternative for coal, was actually used as prank for gathering candy. That day is October 31st. Combustion of bag with a Big Surprise!
Superman gave a legit question, and Wonder Woman gave him a legit answer. Between the two of them, he's had an easier time then she when you look at their comic histories.
Theres acomic of a little girl avoiding her mom in the other room by passing the cookie jar to herself in another panel. When her mom confronted her she asked how, and it was revealed that the mom was reading the comic in the newspaper
12:00 as a Chicagoian, we are definitely going to try that shit now
8:13 If anyone doesn't know, salt kills slugs
i use emkay to sleep at night, thank you for your service lads
2:28, I believe that you might be thinking of Swat Cats
10:04 hire someone with insomnia.
Lol
I thought I would give this subreddit a try, the first post blew all the expectations I had out of the water. I'm glad I found this genre of humor
my favourite narrators are robin, jack, lexy, and damien because all of them are my favourite
About counting sheep, I have tried it, doesn't really work for me, cause then I have to keep track of what number I'm on and that just keeps me up. What does work is just imagining sheep jumping over a fence and going 'sheep... sheep.... sheep...' as a way to occupy my mind to keep it from wandering and the repetition helps calm me down.
Hearing The Far Side described as boomer humor made my soul hurt.
"Counting sheep" was meant for farmers, to think of their livestock and list their names for example, since most people dont have sheep, the modern equivalent would be like "count all the levels on that videogame you like" or "remember the full names of the characters from that cool book"
i'm one of the early millennials pioneers (when internet was introduced during my teen years, but a bit earlier for me since my father telecommuted for his job), and i literally grew up reading these in the newspaper comics, even Mad Magazine when it was still around, so they bring fond memories to me :3
webcomics can be hit or miss, i'll admit, but it's so wonderful we're still carrying on the tradition of illustrated cartoons while adding a new generation of humor. true evolution of the meme behavior.
I love these, it connects me to the old sense of humor without the risk of baggage
At 10:10 The whole point is to get you to focus on that one thing. It's meant to be so mundane that you get bored and fall asleep. If you are thinking of anything else, it ruins it.
Hey Robin, you might be thinking of an episode of The Outer Limits from the late 90s where a dude grew eyes on the back of his head because nanobots in his body were trying to improve him.
It's one of the best episodes of the series and has stuck in my brain for over twenty years.
There's also an episode of the Dick Van Dyke show. In Rob's dream Laura grows eyes in the back of her head and looses her thumbs
@@lynneconklin917 Why didn't she just tighten them again?
3:00 Usually dead or low batteries is a reason for the standard vehicle to not start or a faulty starter. It's also possible that something could be wrong with the spark plugs or a blown ignition fuse. I am a bit rusty on my automotive knowledge, it's been a few months since lasting fixing a car.
3:04 There can be instances when there are impurities in the gas and the car has to be given a fuel treatment for it to work.
Robin, why the hell are you so damn handsome? I think it's the bisexuality. Most bisexual people are smokin', including me. We need our own island. Also, glad that you got something to read that didn't make you angry, though I bet that they thought it would.
"Got any grapes? " "No!" *And he waddle away🎵*
6:28 My family starved to death after i spent all my money on Emkay merch. 10/10, would buy again 😁👍

Have a lady that comes to our senior center (i volunteer), at 108. She ears like a horse- all the desserts, and sweets. And a LOT. She never says a word. Comes in, eats like, 3 to 4 servings of everything, leaves. Its crazy.
12:19 actually, wonder woman's weakness is impalement, and bullets would pierce her.

2:45 - Are the keys in? Is there any gas?
The only time our car decided to die, was because of bad gasoline. It was the first day of the roadtrip. So, yeah, the 'gas impurity' is possible
0:07 MAN I JUST GOT MY WISDOM TEETH TAKEN OUT TOO
5:59 I had a grandfather who was the driver for the Time/Life photographer and was both at Hiroshima and Nagasaki right after they went off and he ended up living the longest of all my grandparents
that "died anyway" one is ringing very true to me currently because my mom is the epitome of healthy living, walks like 2 miles a day, is vegan, just a really healthy person. and yet, she was closest to dying from some heart problems when me and my siblings all thought she would outlive our overweight dad by several years.
10:50 snipers a good job mate
