The December 6, 2023 F Minus cartoon by Tony Carrillo shows what might be a TED Talk speaker proclaiming:
“Hello, and welcome to my megahit sold-out lecture,
‘Everyone Who Disagrees with You Is a Liar or a Fool’.”
And the December 6, 2023 Pearls Before Swine cartoon by Stephan Pastis has the following four frames:
Rat: [Sitting behind the counter with a sign advertising Good Advice for Losers]
Goat: Do you honestly expect to attract customers with a sign like that?
Rat: [rewrites the sign]
Rat: [Sitting behind the counter with a sign now saying Great Advice for Losers]
A superlative like great always is better than merely saying good.
