That rat sure does get some action

 

[Snarfington]

I laughed.

Also, I love how everyone in the museum audience seems to be interesting or distinguishable in some way. Nice attention to detail.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Uh, okay. I was hoping there was more to it than that.

When the character says "No one can know about this", he means "I don't want other dinosaurs finding out about this". It's a huge irony that not only did they fail to keep it private, but thousands of people see them millions of years later. It's also the law of unintended consequences; how could the dinosaurs possibly have foreseen this? There's also the element of how absurd it is that a museum would actually do an exhibit that consisted of dinosaurs humping. Like, you expect the museum to present sort of sterile, hands-off material in a serious kind of way, and here's the exhibit and it's, like, crazy popular and they just put it out there, no attempt to conceal it or clean it up. And look at the faces on everyone attending it, they're off the charts, this is a genuine phenomenon--like, even if this was just a regular dinosaur exhibit, that'd be one thing, but this is, based on the crowd in the third frame, something as popular as King Kong or something.

Also some of the crowd faces remind me of this terrible background art from Pinocchio:

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Why can't we know?


Also, good to see Baskins making a comeback. Well, pre-, since theres no monkey.

Nice catch.

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Perfection. The way this comic can be so macabre, but have such a silly punch-line is amazing.

Awesome, I like this one:

You're kidding, right?

 

[Guevara]

I like the art more than the jokes.

 

[Neuromancer]

Haha I liked this one

 

[victreeb3l]

this is hilarious lol

It isn't ironic because other dinosaurs didn't find out about it. Yes, people in a museum are having a laugh, and the museum setting exhibits just how public the dinosaur affair became, but in my mind, the fact that other dinosaurs didn't find out about their affair kind of makes the comic fall flat.

 

[3phemeral]

I think it's hilarious the way he drew the volcanic splashes.

 

[f0lken]

That rat sure does get some action

I had forgotten about this, is simply brutal

 

[Battersea Power Station]

Is Perry Bible Fellowship a series? I'll check it out. I like the faces of the dinosaurs in the first panel.

 

[Meier]

Here is a similar strip (in part) that he did in the past. Love this one.

 

[SnakeswithLasers]

You're kidding, right?

Got to be.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

The hot dino lady has sex with the ugly dino dork - just as long as he keeps quiet about it.
Unfortunately for her, their shameful copulation is memorized throug the ages.

 

[Clydefrog]

LOL it's a good one!

should have added feathers

 

[TheJollyCorner]

I like the kid laying on his back throwing a fit in the background (left side of the last panel).

 

[Dresden]

Eh, mediocre. PBF lost its edge.

 

[Suairyu]

Oh come on. Can you think of any other PBF comics where there's "more to it" than the obvious joke they're telling?

Plenty. Here's one posted by f0lken:

 

[3phemeral]

Plenty. Here's one posted by f0lken:

That's a bad example. Here's a better one:

Haven't really enjoyed a pbf comic since they were first discovered here.

 

[Munin]

Remember when PBF used to be funny?

 

[Suairyu]

That's a bad example. Here's a better one:

What would be the hidden layer of humour in the one you posted? Why is it a better example of extra depth than mine?

 

[zethren]

Clearly there is more thought put into most PBF strips than is on the surface. How are people surprised by that?

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Remember when PBF used to be funny?

you mean 2 hours ago?

 

[Juicy Bob]

1,2,3

 

[BorkBork]

It would be funnier if other dinosaur skeletons were all positioned to look at them doing it.

 

[Surface of Me]

Didn't even smirk.

I really can't imagine anyone finding this hilarious or being in actual tears from it, is NeoGAF doing one big meta-joke where people pretend to find new PBF strips funny?

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

lol

 

[Manaka]

Ha, because of this topic I clicked on "random" for a while and somehow I always missed the guy in the background, right side in this one:

[3phemeral]

The wife is bored of their relationship, screwed her husband over, but in the end, they're all still tools.

Not necessarily a hidden joke by any means, but the elements he used are well thought out and compliment the theme very tightly.

 

[Zeppu]

Thin, crooked, badly nailed nails.
Massive thick screw.

 

[Fusebox]

Looks like he died right at the moment of climax. Extra layer of funny.

 

[Angelus Errare]

That's a bad example.

What his was a GREAT example

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolidge_effect

 

[Kinyou]

Man, I sure love PBF

 

[Violet_0]

not really funny, but I love the details in the last panel

 

[AlexBasch]

Fucking Baskins.

 

[Lonestar]

PBF, and no mention of Facial Expressions???

 

[Majine]

Lol, I love PBF.

 

[Meier]

Good catch, I didn't even think about that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolidge_effect

Hah! Great added layer.

 

[AlexBasch]

I don't know why this kills me.

 

[scar tissue]

I thought the joke was that they were having gay sex, and therefore no-one could know.

Male/Female Parasaurolophus for reference:

 

[gutshot]

I sort of smirked at this.

Is there a reason every PBF comic gets its own GAF thread? I'm gonna start posting every new xkcd comic as its own thread.

 

[3phemeral]

Indeed. It seems I may have judged to soon.

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

I sort of smirked at this.

I'm guessing it's because new ones don't come very often.

 

[keyboardcat]

Pbf just isn't updated regularly enough for it to merit comedic genius. Sorry but that's just the way it is. Daily updates from stuff like amazingsuperheroes, xkcd and the like just provide better entertainment on a daily basis.

Holy shit

This changes everything!
