So funny story Timmy never fell down a well.... But there may have been a mine shaft.

I love that this reference still works even though this show was probably off the air even when I was old enough to remember it and I'm in my 50s.

I don't have the foggiest clue what this is referencing. This whole panel is just completely random to me.

The well deepens again. Actually more like a drainage ditch, swale, or culvert though (drainage engineers help me out here) and actually rather shallow.

I also need an explanation

See other thread attached to parent.

Funny that the artist kinda gave up on the “dog” when s/he got below the knee. Just slapped some human-like appendages on there. Can’t unsee it.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

Wouldn't this make more sense if the dog was behind the desk?

Ah the irish president at work!

[–] wieson@feddit.org 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That would be the Taoseach, I believe.

[–] EccTM@lemmy.ml 3 points 14 hours ago

We have both! The Taoiseach is like a prime minister, and then the President is more on the ceremonial side of things, a diplomat. Our current president, Michael D. Higgins, is known for having two huge Bernese Mountain Dogs that show up at lots of events.

I am planning to move to Ireland once I finish uni, and those names already scare me

Is this a jibe on the Furry community? I, don't get it.

Forget Timmy. It was time to make some cut to the personnel anyway.
