A Tim Long of West Hollywood, California, “formerly of Toronto,” commends us for including Al Jaffee’s “Snobby Answers to Loser Questions” in the new Snob Comix! section of the site, but finds the cartoon wanting in comparison to its spiritual antecedent, Mr. Jaffee’s famous “Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions” in Mad magazine.

“The thing I miss,” writes Tim, “is the fourth, ‘blank,’ space in which readers can fill in their own ‘snappies.’ As a Canadian boy, I spent many happy hours writing my own acid rejoinders to questions like ‘Napoleon, are you invading Russia?’”

We’re thinking that there may be a memoir in you, Tim. Have you tried Knopf?
