the New Yorker COMICS

The first comic I found to be particularly clever was the comic on page 96, criticizing the healthcare system in the United States. The comic shows a man in a store trying to pick out a card, and the category, instead of "Get Better", is "Good luck with the American Health-Care System." This joke is not only true, but creative, as most of the time, we are wishing luck to people with hospitals that need better care and service.
The second comic I found humorous was the one questioning the idea of levitation. (pg. 106). A man walks down the street and is confused when he looks up and sees the door elevated on the wall reading "National Levitation Society." This is clever because most ideas about levitation seem to be impossible and take many hours of meditation and concentration and without spiritual beliefs, really is impossible.
Lastly, I enjoyed the cartoon that had a picture of a man impatiently glancing at his watch, while his wife was getting herself ready for an event by getting injections in her forehead. This not only critiques the modern society where every woman feels that it is necessary to fix every natural flaw, but also shows the necessity for a perfection a woman strives for.
