The real beauty was reading the entire comic first, and only then getting to the title

[–] EsteemedRectangle@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was confused at first

I thought all 6 was 1 joke, like the standard 1 joke per comic, right?

Then I saw the Stones, and thought the cadence was … 3 rows 3 jokes and the background colors are green (first row), grey (second row), and then … no I’m overthinking this

Then I saw Zeppelin in the 3rd row.

Oh, it’s 6 jokes!!!

Eventually I got all the jokes. So that’s my accomplishment for the day.

And why is the leopard shouting at the human skeletons?!?! LoL

I got to the 4th box and was so confused that I decided to read the title.

[–] AzuleBlade@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

My dumb brain read "brand names" (I guess that still makes sense, since a band's name is their brand) and I was thoroughly confused.

[–] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Omg I read the captions as lyrics and then whrn I got to the last one I realized what the point was. Derp.

Gd and dl i couldnt figure out thank you

[–] TheSealStartedIt@feddit.de 38 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I read the comic before the title. The story was very confusing..

I read the title as Brand Names and I was trying to figure out what the mystery brands were, until I realized it said bands.

[–] freamon@communick.news 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeesh. All you lot saying "The Doors" for the last panel - it's clearly "Two Door Cinema Club" (it was genuinely the first band that popped into my head when I saw the pic)

[–] Karlos_Cantana@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 year ago

I thought it was "Two Doors Down".

[–] IAmTheZeke@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I wish there were more commenters so someone else would have already asked for help on this one - but I get to be that dumb guy today. Rolling stones... What are the others

[–] IAmTheZeke@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Oh man I feel dumb. Thank you so much. Those are awesome

I kept getting stuck on 3 doors down as the last solution and couldn't think of any other door bands

[–] MJBrune@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, I thought it was 2 Doors Down then realized that band is called 3 Doors Down but then realized there is a obscure band called 2 Doors Down. Also, who are The Doors?

[–] Pseu@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The two songs I know of theirs are Riders on the Storm and Light My Fire.

[–] chahk@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Hello. I love you. Won't you tell me your name?

[–] robyoung@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Aha! Thank you. So there isn't a band called polite skeletons?

[–] Morcyphr@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks, I couldn't figure out the Def Leppard one.

[–] chahk@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

That one was the funniest.

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Deaf Leopard was formed 46 years ago in 1977.

[–] thismessisaplace@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well.. I was 9 when they formed. What's your point?

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Counting Crows

Rolling Stones

Grateful Dead

Def Leopard

Led Zeppelin

The Doors

Counting Crows seems a bit out of place among the others. They're all classic rock bands except Counting Crows.

Let's see what I can come up with....

[A pile of red peppers]

[A portrait of a family, but the children are being pointed at by arrows]

[A forest of anthropomorphic trees, screaming]

[A picture of heaven with an enlightened soul as the center piece]

[The word "avenge" writen on a piece of paper that is folded 7 times]

[A man jerking off]

Okay the crows one is stumping me but I know as soon as someone tells me I’m going to hate myself for not getting it.

It was nice seeing Jamie Hyneman's realisation when the mythbusters [Adam] proposed making a lead balloon that would actually float.

Here's another - [A lot of geckos. An unreasonable amount, if you will.]
