Might as well put a person in the picture. Soon as it hit's 30 or lower people dress like it's 0 or below around here (SW Ohio), just to go out and get in to the car they remotely started & warmed up, drive to the convenience store, then walk 10 feet to the door. Ugh

Here's another.

This is a well-known meme...haven't seen it in cartoon form.

What does it say about us?

There is no doubt that our parents and our grandparents were far tougher than we are.

Not even close...

Josephbleau म्हणाले...

That’s about right. And the decendants of ww2 vets living in Broolkyn

There's no rear legs on dog blankets. Peeing has to work cleanly.

Wolves didn’t learn to weave and knit. Fortunately for the New Yorker, their descendants did, and their peers learned to code.

What's emanating from your penumbra म्हणाले...

Part of the feminization of society.

Some people get these dogs just so they can dress them up in cool outfits.

Picture describes the readers of the New Yorker in general.

Howard म्हणाले...

At least it's not one of those infernal doodle dogs.

i have a cousin, that's Always Posting caring concerned stuff on facebook
stuff like:
"It's cold out there! if you leave your pets out tonight; make Sure you stay out with them!"

She's convinced that it is Cruel, and MEAN! to leave a dog out in the snow...
Makes you think, that she hasn't met many dogs

What IS cruel (imho) is leaving dogs out In The Summer. Dogs Need AC more than people do

Leland म्हणाले...

their ancestors did... Ugh

Now do one of a man wearing a mask and the text: "descendent of warriors, walking in a mildly infectious environment".

A few years ago, some group conducted a protest campaign against a local business that sold pure-bred puppies. As this campaign developed, one of the issues became that some of the puppies were kept overnight in a truck when the weather outside was as low as 40 degrees.

The local newspaper ran several articles about this protest campaign, and each article mentioned the issue about the puppies being outside in cool weather.

I wrote a letter to the editor pointing out that puppies living in nature thrive in much colder weather.

The newspaper published my letter. A few days later, the newspaper published another letter responding to mine. The response letter insisted that puppies might be uncomfortable when the temperature was only 40 degrees.

Indoors in winter my family’s dogs seemed to wilt at room temperature. They would sit by the dog door where it was cooler and stick their nose out from time to time…

I take it this is a metaphor for the human condition. Or the cartoonist is just telling us he went to San Francisco, California.

I’ m amazed that “The New Yorker” still publishes mildly humorous cartoons with a gentle satirical edge. I subscribed to the magazine in the 80’ and 90’s, but stopped when it veered sharply left and dropped the E.B. White style of writing. I think the cartoon probably reflects a cultural theme in the New York, Connecticut, New Jersey area. Where I live in Minnesota, where it can be brutally cold in January and February, it makes sense to use dog coats. We did that with our little Yorkie, who had to sometimes relieve himself at 20 below or lower. But in New York or Connecticut this seems like an affectation. It’s common in my region to see men in stores wearing shorts In brutally cold weather. I call this Minnesota macho. People here still walk their dogs on very cold days. I think the cartoon probably depicts a regional
cultural pattern.

Our ancestors swung naked through the trees. What's the point?

'...it makes sense to use dog coats. We did that with our little Yorkie, who had to sometimes relieve himself at 20 below or lower.'

I think the broader point is that 'little Yorkies' could never exist in the natural world before humans bred them into existence.

Still an average Sunday for me...

We were wolves, once. Wild, cunning, self-sufficient. Then we discovered that you have couches. (From a meme)

n.n म्हणाले...

Urbanized covariant in climate change.

My dog has very short hair. (Also is extremely smart and good-looking with a dynamite personality.). The last few days, walks have almost made it to the end of the driveway. Then she pees and trots back to the back door.

Don't Forget the Thumbs! Can't operate a can opener without Thumbs!!
There are strong indications that Dogs decision to domesticate humans was chiefly because of Thumbs

Like a Yorkie, but with less insulation, our twenty pound dackel short hair gets pretty damn cold in the winter, and on the cold, windy days he gets a chic little jacket over his harness when we go out. And he burrows under various blankets and throws if no warm lap is available.

In high summer he has to be allowed outside only briefly, and watched that he doesn't bake himself on the hot brick patio.

This is not to imply that he lacks wolfish, predatory instincts, sharp teeth, and powerful jaws.

Same disappointment that grandpas feel when they see the grandson's man-bun.

Fritz म्हणाले...

My Siberian sneers.

Fernandinande said... [scroll up for the link] cute. Actually better.

IMHO, Dogs that need clothing to be outdoors in the winter, are not canines. They're household fetishes. Also, the New Yorker lost it sometime in the 60s and are now just getting by on a dwindling reputation.

Meade म्हणाले...

Good girl, Skye! 🐕

rehajm म्हणाले...

Burge’s “I think I’m going to kill myself” New Yorker caption still valid here…

Captain BillieBob म्हणाले...

Our dog loves the cold, hates the heat. Stays outside all day in the cold.

The dog in the picture is an accessory.

ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.

I got nothing against dogwear in general (if the dog doesn't mind) but what's with dog booties? (Booties, not boo-tays. You have a dirty mind.)
