The new oddtodd cartoonI don't think that anyone has posted this yet. Oddtodd has released his newest cartoon. Man, I love that guy. He is da tits. (For those of you unfamiliar with that saying that means he is good/great/cool... you know, da tits.)

I am so saying "that's da tits!" from now on.

Actually the expression "tits" was used quite extensively in the late 70's by my peer group. eg., "Wow man. That was tits!"

Sorry aj100. Just had to claim some of my youthful identity back. I'm gettin' old over here ;)

Where are the MeFi police today? This isn't new.

It's interesting (but cool...er, tits) that "tits" is an expression for something good now...wasn't it used in a negative connotation at one point, as in something like "that guy's business went tits up"?

Whatever. It's all tits. We should probably talk about the link now, or something.

Hmm. I like da tits, but having tried it out on a few people there is confusion. They think I am saying something has gone tits up, which is not good. When I explain it actually means the dogs bollocks they look at me as if I'm John Gregory. Still love it though.

The cartoon is good, but the song Gene Hackman -- found near the bottom of his downloads page -- is genius.

Don't talk to me about Gene Hackman.
