It's not funny when it happens to you

In today's Los Angeles Times comics pages, there are two strips that involve a living creature being washed after another living creature went to the bathroom on its head. That's quite an amazing coincidence, beating even the day a couple of years ago when two strips featured a joke involving one animal having to be in a carrier in the cargo area of an airplane while another rode as a passenger.

The washing up was happening today in "Frazz" (boy vs. guinea pig) and "Grand Avenue" (dog vs. bird). The simultaneous "animal in carrier" jokes were in "Mother Goose and Grimm" and "Citizen Dog," neither of which are in the L.A. Times anymore...which may spell doom for "Frazz" and "Grand Avenue."
