I hope to God that the punchline had nothing to do with that "Not Me!" character...

Did anyone ever used to read the online "Funny Pages" column in the Baltimore "City Paper"? It was these two people, who reviewed the comics page every week - absolutely great. (It's gone from the site now, and the archived pages have the images erased - but I bet the panel you refer to was there at one time.)

oh man, those were TOTALLY classic. was it even ever actually in the paper? I only ever saw it on the website, and assumed they just couldn't get the rights to use the images in the actual publication. thank you for reminding me about those, shame they're no longer archived.

FAMILY CIRCUS: Funny Paper spends the week wondering why the Dysfunctional Family Circus spoofsters even bother trying to improve on the original product. Monday, Jeffy confronts Daddy over the bathroom sink, asking for "some of that topping." Thursday, Dolly sees Daddy outside and asks Mommy how to "blow him a hug."

This is the one where Billy writes "9-11: A DATE WE'LL NEVER FORGET," right?

Sometimes we did better the originals, though

We all read American Psycho and thought "why did what's-his-name put all those product names in between the good scenes?" Bill Keane is back again to show the literary punks how it's done, and whether it's Dolly sealing up PJ's rear with a hot glue-gun to hide the evidence or Mommy forcing raw hunks of still-squirming Barfy down Jeffy's throat as the rest of the coven watches, horror piles upon horror at a relentless pace that can only presage an insanity plea at Keane's upcoming trial. Sensitive arty-farty types mince over this or that romantic suicide who leaves some fey scribblings to posterity: the blowtorch ferocity of Bill Keane, daring to live as he writes despite the possibility of execution or at least chemical castration, leaves weak-willed pansies in the dust. Illustrated.

Okay, I was really confused about how that comic would have been run ON 09/11, but I see that those are consecutive strips from 2002.

You can't convince me that today's strip wasn't about the anniversary:
