What you’re looking at

This page contains humorous anecdotes rather than political cartoons. The content includes: 1. **A dating joke** where a man's attempted kiss results in a slap, but the woman says she "kept my reputation" — implying the man's reputation (as a failed kisser) suffered instead. 2. **"Something to Worry About"** references the Folies Bergère in Paris, where performers wore only body paint rather than clothing — presented as scandalous news. 3. **A joke about insurance** with a French dancer, playing on the double meaning of "insured feet." 4. **A newspaper caption joke** about how photo captions say women are "20 years of age" rather than "was 20" — suggesting these women are no longer that age. The humor is lighthearted, focused on dating, fashion, and journalism conventions of the era.
