What’s the joke? I don’t get it! Are they going for heartwarming? Slice of life? I don’t even see where the humor is supposed to belong, unless you count the grin on the baby. He totally looks like he just filled his diaper, but I’m not sure that’s what they’re going for.

And for the record, this is the last time The Family circus was funny:
