Jesus ‘n’ Mo ‘n’ the trots

9 thoughts on “Jesus ‘n’ Mo ‘n’ the trots”

1. Perhaps also a riff on how no one can spell that malady.

2. Hilarious and more subtle at the end – I’ve had trouble spelling unnecessary before, too.

3. I wonder if Mo had ‘said’ diarrhea would Jesus have understood?

   I have lived too long outside of the UK … my spelling is all mixed up.

4. But what in the world does it all have to do with the theme of the strip? Are the spelling issues supposed to be a subtle reference to the fine points of biblical exegesis? Or to excessive legalism? I doubt it. But then what’s the connection to Mo and Jesus?

   If I’m overlooking the obvious, like the rapidly aging old fart that I actually am, please break it to me gently.

   1. The cartoonist is taking a break from deep social commentary.

   2. I’m interpreting it to be a commentary on what passes for debates online these days, where people will frequently be sidetracked by opponents’ mispellings misspellings and minor grammatical issues to ‘prove’ that they are more intelligent and therefore correct. I could be wrong, though.

5. Mo could take some Imodium A.D. (anno Domini).

   1. Nice!

6. How do you hear a misspelling? Or is that the joke?
