Explain To Me Why This Is Funny

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. People who find the comics in The New Yorker funny deserve to be punched in the back of the head. I present to you this abject example of banality:

Seriously, Fuck The New Yorker

Seriously, fuck The New Yorker. Unless this is about that whole Haiti thing.

I have no idea what it means. Do they jump really high now in football? Is it about steroids? I thought that was a baseball thing.

No wait, I get it now. It’s about the health care legislation. Like the flying football player is all about the progressive changes the administration is wanting, and the curmudgeon on the ground is like those right wingers that prefer the old way of doing things. You know, where the maximum is done to punish the needy and the minimum is done to curtail the excesses of the upper-crust plutocracy that controls 95% of the nations wealth. Oh wait, that can’t be it — the NFL has private insurance.

Seriously, I’ll give anyone a coupon good for one free back rub* if they can explain to me why this is funny. I really want to know (mainly because if you tell me, it’s likely that you find this cartoon in some way amusing, and I can punch you in the back of the head).

*By “back rub” I mean handjob, and by “free” I mean $20.
