What you’re looking at

This page contains a collection of short jokes and humorous one-liners typical of 1920s satirical magazines, rather than political cartoons. The content includes: **"Let's Call It the Cockeyed Blues"** — a joke about cross-eyed girls, playing on the popular blues music genre. **"Honest, This Is True"** — a folk-style anecdote about someone named Fawcett visiting a cellar and finding it empty. **"Pathetic, Ye Gods, Too Pathetic"** — an ethnic joke featuring an Irishman and Scotchman at a bar, playing on stereotypes about drinking and money. **"Glorious Daze"** — humor about drunks on a train, with slurred speech representing intoxication. The jokes rely on period stereotypes, ethnic humor, and wordplay common to early 20th-century American comedy magazines.
