tea bagging it

This is a comic published in the biggest newspaper in finland. Dunnow if this kind of humour could fly for example in the states....

Well, I'd find you a comic strip called "Milton", but I haven't found it yet. I'll post up once I do, if I do.

That cartoon would probably not be found in the biggest newspapers in the USA. I haven't read the comics in newspapers here in a long time, but I don't believe they have changed much. They are pretty boring in my opinion.

By the way, any translation on the title and what is send in the last panel? Hehe, I'm not sure I quite get the joke completely.

We have plenty of alternative sources to go to if we want to read some edgier stuff.

Here is one of my favorites called Redmeat. It has some pretty twisted stuff sometimes. There are a bunch of different characters but my favorites are Milkman Dan and the little girl on his delivery route, Karen, who Dan likes to torment.

Well, no Milton yet, but here's something not found in newspapers that I think just about everyone knows.

Not in newspapers any longer but it was until the creator decided to end the strip. He's an interesting guy. Never sold out to cartoons, movies, merchandise of his strip and he could have made a lot of money doing so

The only other newspaper strip that I ever really liked was Bloom County / Outland. Some very good stuff there too.

Well he says "would you care for some bag tea?"
The artist usually combines bad taste and word plays. There was actually some controversy few months back when he published a strip about jews and fair trade. Kinda disappointed that he publicly apologized and the strip was removed from the web.

Heh, I've seen some redmeat strips. They're pretty twisted
