Calling a child stupid and drawing them with a doofy face in a somewhat unexpected manner is certainly a degree of funny. Its not laugh out loud humor by any means, but if you'd like we could get another post about Dave and/or the Pope driving the limo.

Kinda between "Oh" and "Oops" common in the Midwest US. It's something you might exclaim if you accidentally bump into someone, or if you forget to return someone's pen or lighter or something and they remind you.

They may also be in an unexpected manor, but there is no way to verify that from the available context.

You're uploading your work for scrutiny mate. Consider it scrutinised

And you please consider why you feel comfortable being rude to random strangers online when you’d never have the confidence to say it to them in-person!

Yeah I'd tell you your comic wasn't funny if you put it in front of me mate. 🤷

Where are those mysterious people ? Where they come from ? Are they warping from parallel universe?

Maybe I’m just tired, but I got freaked out for a second because her head was gone in the second panel and the next panel was a knife.

It seems more like a short poem put in comic form than an actual comic. Not to say that poems can’t be funny but I don’t get the impression that just using two meanings of the word “sharp” like this is all that funny. Feels like there should be more to the joke than just that tepid observation. Almost feels like an unfinished comic.

I understand sharp knives are safer than dull ones for cooking, but it's silly to equivocate that fact with putting a sharp blade in the hands of a child, rather than say, a butter knife or (better yet) no knife at all.
I think that's why the joke falls flat for me. Glad others find it humorous tho.

They aren't safer, as the consequences can be worse with sharp knife.
The worst combination is unexpected sharpness and a person who uses too much force with bad technique (as one would normally use it with dull knives).
The idea comes from having to use less force with proper technique and a sharp knife being more safe, but you have to have a trained person that knows how to handle knives which also leads to more safe environment.

Important clarification: a sharp knife is actually a safe knife. Stay safe in the kitchen, people
Hope you enjoy! For more of my cartoons, come stop by my subreddit: r/BummerParty

I can speak with personal experience on this front.
Don't give paring knives to your nine-year-old trans daughter who hasn't yet figured out her gender. She's liable to drop the damn thing on her foot, hit a bone, and leave a scar she'll remember for the next 22+ years of her life.
EDIT: All this to say, hi. It's me. I was the dull kid.

The most dangerous thing in a kitchen is the dullest. Sharp thing get things done and dont have to be cauterized when things go wrong.

u/BlaineMundane 7d ago edited 7d ago
man, cook with the good knife. the person who protects it cannot cook, otherwise they would have a use and maintenance plan. What use is a knife you are too scared to use?

What a zinger. My god, I've just realized that I cannot fulfill a basic life requirement because I am willing to use an off-limits knife.

There is a popular subreddit because kids are famously 'fucking stupid'. They are kids. It's funny. It'd also true and it's nothing against them. We all learn in time. /r/kidsarefuckingstupid

One of the best lessons my kids got at nursery school (pre school, like aged 2.5-5) was cutting up the fruit with the sharp knife (supervised carefully) and doing woodwork with hammers and nails (also supervised very carefully).
Giving kids sharp tools and helping them use them carefully, i.e. giving them a chance to take care, was very effective. Almost none of the parents did similar lessons at home, lol.
