As covert as this is; I am a bit concern you have “current”, followed by “extinct life”- especially when nameless (and I know it rhymes with brainless and gormless) leader is threatening the world with being an oxymoron. Your next play on words – the world on a rocket to ‘outer space’ 🙂

Thanks for sharing. You do not have a REBLOG Button, so I cannot reblog. I did follow on Twitter. Best wishes with your work.

  I thought the PRESS THIS button the same as REBLOG, but maybe I’m wrong.

The PRESS Button is to post on Twitter. REBLOG button posts your post to another WORDPRESS post to get more exposure. You do get credit. You may want to check out my WordPress account and have a look. Thanks. I like to keep Twitter and WordPress separate. MG WordPress: mgwells8.wordpress.com

    So I just checked into it and the REBLOG button only shows up (beside the LIKE button) if you click on the individual post. It doesn’t show up if you’re on the main page. At least that’s what happens on my end.

Right, the reblog button gives a link to the post on my own WordPress post, not the cartoon itself. Which is fine with me, my followers will click. 8)

This is hilarious. We just discussed oxymorons a few days ago in class, and now I see them everywhere. My teacher will be pleased to see this. Thanks for posting this!

Many öf these terms are perfectly acceptable usage, and to classify them as oxymoron’s seems to me a little wide of the mark. You need to aim your rapier more accurately.

Can I ask for permission to use this image for a l two day workshop I am leading with curators at a major museum? We want to use it as an example of their current and discuss why things must change.

  Provided the image is not altered in any manner, I am given credit as the artist and it is not being used for commercial purposes, you are free to use it in your workshop. John
