I’ve got the flu and cannot function. So here’s a flashback from ten years ago. Pray for me.

What they're saying...
Jesus & Mo (the characters) are absurd, blinkered, and oddly very sweet. J&M (the cartoon) is brilliant: sharp, delicious, irresistible.
Salman Rushdie
Jesus and Mo cartoons are wonderfully funny and true.
Richard Dawkins
Jesus and Mo make the world a better place, bless their little hearts.
Ophelia Benson
In a world defined by outrage and offence and liberal spinelessness, Jesus and Mo is a treasure, whose value we should never fail to recognize. Read them. Laugh. And think.
Kenan Malik
...a philosophical confrère.
Jerry Coyne
The brilliant, celebrated, freaking hilarious atheist comic strip ...
Greta Christina
...rays of sanity in a befuddled world.
Keri Hulme
The liveliest depictions of Muhammad currently available...
Malise Ruthven
J & Mo is the funniest and most consistently thought-provoking cartoon strip on the Net. In a saner world, it would run in a major newspaper.
Nelson Jones, Heresy Corner
Consistently amusing, frequently thought-provoking and often heart-warming.
New Humanist
Jesus & Mo is one of the most wonderful things on the internet..
JT Eberhard
Wittily captures much of the absurdity of religious apologetics.
Mano Singham
...wonderfully brilliant and witty.
Miranda Celeste Hale
Too good for words.
Maryam Namazie
The Eric and Ernie of monotheism.
Tom Holland
The most impious double act since Sodom and Gomorrah.
Andrew Copson, Chief Executive, BHA
I love jesusandmo.net cartoons - witty and sharp!
Katha Pollitt
Often hilarious, frequently wry, these cartoons do what all the best cartoons do: they tell the truth through humour.
Terry Sanderson, NSS President
...a wonderfully acid British cartoonist...
Nick Cohen
I love the scrappy mockery of Jesus and Mo. Freedom of speech includes the freedom to mock any person, any thing, any activity, and any belief -- and J&M stands up for this unflinchingly
Richard Stallman
...empowering, important and deeply progressive, not to mention hilarious...
Council of Ex-Muslims
Jesus & Mo is my go to example of how to do tasteful, beautiful religious satire.
Eiynah, Polite Conversations
...humor is humor and this cartoonist doesn't have it. Karl Giberson

Perhaps you are suffering from analogy.
Thoughts and Prayers… Thoughts & Prayers…
Have you tried blowing a hairdryer up your nose to kill the virus ?
I pray that our beloved author finds that his forced idleness leads to even greater inspiration to keep us all nourished in our spirits till kingdom come. For clarification, I use the term ‘pray’ to denote a heartfelt wish, i.e. metaphorically. The term ‘kingdom come’ is an anagram of ‘mocking mode’, so I am using an anagram as a metaphor for an analogy. Sorry to be so unclear.
Brainsmith – LOL!
Remember – you can’t spell “analogo” withut “a-n-a-l”.
Typo apology – “anology”.
Back in Junior High School, I once told an adult that I didn’t really believe in God, explaining that I was an “analgesic”, and only realized my error several days later. Ooops. However, I do still believe in headaches.
Author: I would pray for you, but because I am an atheist, God might actually punish you instead of helping you.
Good Job you weren’t infected with mancunian flu, you can tell it’s mancunian because under an electron microscope you can see the pathogen has a skin head and steelies to kick the fook out of your antibodies, GMO’s are no use against such determined pathogens….
I shall light a candle for you, beloved author, if I knew how to enter a Catholic church, or whatever the ceremony is. I just got over Covid last week, fortunately I had pretty much zero symptoms. Still, a week home from work is a week home from work.
Author: OtterBe suggests a hot toddy, or two, as a remedy for your flu. I seem to be recognised (rightly or wrongly) as the resident whisky expert in the old Cock and Bull pub, so a word of advice! A hot toddy, or two, is an excellent suggestion, but don’t waste a highly regarded (and expensive) single malt scotch whisky for toddy. A cheap popular blend, or supermarket own brand, will be just as effective – or not.
Perhaps your Patreon patrons could start up a special Author Whisky Fund.
I will sacrifice a virgin and ravish a goat to speed your recovery. I may have that backwards.
It’s metaphorically a metaphor for itself.
No, that’s nonsense. Really it’s metaphorically a metaphor for a metaphor for itself.
Rinse, lather, repeat to infinity.
A hod Toddy eh? Cheap whisky or Brandy does the trick, though a good sluice of Navy Rum is probably best…
Gets the little blighters pissed, so they can’t lace up their steelies…see innit…
Everclear or reagent grade alcohol with mixer of choice (avoid sugar if possible) works well and if doesn’t you won’t care.

RE:Bvereshagen
Is ravaging a virgin mean taking her (or his etcetera) virginity?
Ravishing is a euphemism for “Raping”…
Dear Author, please do recover from your flu. Get off your feet. Get some rest; I’m sending cots and chairs for you.
As SoG says, don’t squander your top shelf tipple on a hot toddy: savor that in good health with your senses fully functional.
So, I awoke this morning feverish and with a sore throat. As I can’t drink, I used a recipe from A Child’s Garden of Grass (now reprinted, I see—and available on Amazon) for a Honey Slide: brown a level tablespoon (book says 2, but weed is way stronger than 50 years ago) of well-cleaned weed in non-stick pan on medium-low, stirring quickly until it darkens & you just start getting whisks of smoke from it. Quickly remove from heat, then grind in mortar & pestle. Mix with a tablespoon of unpasteurized local honey, and swallow. Not a cure—but you ain’t care 😉
Feverish reading recommendation: 1601 by Mark Twain on Project Gutenberg. Perhaps not for those with delicate sensibilities, but I think you folk will enjoy it as much as I did. >remember that ‘y’ at the beginning back then was the ‘th’ sound, so ye -> the & yt is not yeet, but ‘that’.
Shit: I’m up to 101.7. Time for another slide and bed.
Be well, y’all
OtterBe: What’s 101.7? Blood Pressure? Heart rate? Pulse? Weight in pounds? Body mass in kg? Temperature in Fahrenheit? If it’s temperature in Celsius, you’re in a very bad way!
SoG,
Shame on me: numbers are no help without specifying what they represent. In this case, that’s my estimate of the liters of phlegm brought forth to that point. Still reading Mark Twain, so inclined to be even more chatty than usual, but I’ll spare y’all the gory details in case someone over there checks in on J&M during their elevenses: were I explicit, all appetite would flee in disgust.
Sputum….
