They don't have file cabinets on the Moon, they all use computers up there

Beetle Bailey, 9/25/24

Once upon a time, your average newspaper reader looked forward to the middle of the week with eager anticipation. That's because they knew that Wednesday was "Miss Buxley Wednesday," an opportunity to turn to the comics page and briefly become horny from looking at a crude drawing of an attractive blonde woman in a skimpy black dress. But then we all got older, especially the old man who was the blonde woman's boss, and while we're still going through the Wednesday motions, nobody's getting horny anymore, not really. Instead, he old man is getting exasperated by his subordinate, and the blonde woman, even more crudely drawn than before, is quietly typing away in the background, presumably grateful that nobody is getting horny at her.
