SUNDAY FUNNIES: WEEKEND PUPDATE: APRIL 2026

 AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR WEEKEND PUPDATE
WITH YOUR HOST KODA CANINE.

Hello Everybody!
I’m Koda Canine, and can we start the weekend all over again? I was not ready.

Our top story:
Police are still looking for the thieves that robbed the music store and got away with the Lute.

Chefs want to remind everyone that contrary to popular belief, putting popcorn kernels in your pancake batter doesn't make the pancake flip by itself.

Scientists have discovered that it isn’t the clothes dryer that causes your clothing to no longer fit. It’s the refrigerator.

New research shows that six out of seven dwarfs aren’t happy.

And now, a word from our sponsor.

Now, back to what passes for the news.
Authorities are skeptical about the man who claims he was kidnapped by mimes who did unspeakable things to him.

If you’re refrigerator is running, don’t just sit there reading this. Go catch it!

Now it’s time for my editorial.
After "forgiveness is the best thing,” what comes second? I’m not sure, but that’s the most searched question on the Internet.

And finally: 
You look in the mirror and sometimes see a mess of a human being. But you don't see the lives you touched or the people you saved. You don't see the love you've given freely or the extraordinary memories you've made. You are a book of beautiful moments and feelings. Keep adding new pages to that book.

On that note♫, take care.
STAY SAFE!
Have a great week and please be back next weekend for more Sunday Funnies.
For Weekend Pupdate, I’m Koda Canine.

NEXT SUNDAY: PIPER D. KATT'S CELEBRITY CITINGS.

SUNDAY FUNNIES: WAXY'S FAMILY ALBUMS (funny pictures)

Very photogenic
Hello Everybody! Waxy Dragon here!

I've been wracking my brains, trying to come up with something special for this week's installment of The Sunday Funnies, and all I got was a headache.

Seriously though, I thought I'd go through my photo albums and show you some funny pictures.
Ready?


Grandma Dragon is a fan of William Shakespeare. Some of us think she might be old enough to have actually met the Bard, but it be impolite to ask whether or not that's actually true.

Anyway, Grandma loves this one she took on a trip through Europe once, but I'm too young to actually get the joke.


On the left is a picture of Uncle Lazy in his cave.

His real name is Archibald, but nobody actually calls him that.

Yes, the lens cap was off the camera when I shot the image, but my Uncle lives up to his name and never bothers to light any candles.

Then again, considering how bad he is at cleaning, that's probably a good thing.


On the right is a picture of my cousins from the distant Hydra side of the family.

For some reason, most of my family doesn't talk about them much, but they're nice once you get to know them.

It's tough to do anything with them though. It takes them forever to come to an agreement on any decision for some reason.

This is my cousin Sally on the left.

She's always bragging about her fancy clothes, but I don't see what's so special about them myself.

Well, that's all the time and space I have for now.
Have a great week everybody and please be back here again next weekend for more Sunday Funnies!—wd.
