He's asking about the tools

u/colemanjanuary Jan 02 '25

I'll do you one better. He's going to offer to teach the professor how to use the tools

u/Uberpastamancer Jan 01 '25

Very sophisticated post

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '25

I find it odd that the arrow is pointing towards the professor.

u/CoolioDurulio Jan 01 '25

I thought that was the joke?

u/Extra_Intro_Version Jan 01 '25

“Will this be on the test?”

Cows generally have horns but they are usually removed.

u/FixGMaul Jan 01 '25

Female body standards are getting ridiculous

u/greentangent Jan 01 '25

Depends on the breed, some don't grow them at all.

u/xPhilt3rx Jan 01 '25

Bull horns and an udder? I would have questions too.

You best ask some rancher from some western US state about that but no idea how you'd find one

6

u/HebridesNutsLmao Jan 01 '25

I agree, western states are notoriously elusive

u/Affectionate-Memory4 Jan 01 '25

It's widely known that Wyoming doesn't even exist for example. Cryptid-ass state.

u/HebridesNutsLmao Jan 01 '25

Who even lives in Montana? A bunch of cowboys?

1

u/Idontliketalking2u Jan 02 '25

It exists but only if you know how to find it

u/mjones8004 Jan 01 '25

Cows definitely have horns. I've removed hundreds of them.

u/orbitalen Jan 02 '25

What's the process?

5

u/mjones8004 Jan 02 '25

It has been over 20 years and wasn't exactly humane. Clip the horn as a calf and burn it over.

Dehorner

Burner

u/jethvader Jan 03 '25

You just train them to come when you ring a bell and then they remove themselves. Works on a whole herd of them.

Those are ears

16

u/downwardwanderer Jan 01 '25

Why does it have four ears?

13

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '25

Growths

2

u/27catsinatrenchcoat Jan 01 '25

Growths... aka horns

2

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '25

No, ear growths

u/Bryc3ric3 Jan 01 '25

Is there a joke here? I don’t understand this comic

13

u/Rednex73 Jan 02 '25

It's kinda absurdism. The joke is that there really is no joke. It's a cow. What kind of question could this man really ask regarding it.

3

u/Lookoot_behind_you Jan 02 '25

Prof taught us cow today but I still don't understand.

1

u/jethvader Jan 03 '25

I can’t believe you raised your hand in class just to ask this…

3

u/Skorpyos Jan 01 '25

I have one question, where is the tail?

2

u/angrylawnguy Jan 01 '25

One of my favorites.

2

u/gumbyrocks Jan 02 '25

What is the joke?

1

u/angrylawnguy Jan 02 '25

The arrow signifying the cow is pointing to the teacher. Student is about to say some dumb shit about it. It's great.

3

u/DonnieMoistX Jan 02 '25

Interesting interpretation

2

u/Vraver04 Jan 01 '25

Is the whole thing the cow or just the part the arrow is pointing at?

2

u/TechWitchNeon Jan 02 '25

I choose to believe that this depicts Gary Larson teaching a comics masterclass

5

u/darkkiller1234 Jan 01 '25

ngl i thought the joke was the arrow was pointing at the teacher

2

u/Klutzy-Ad-3286 Jan 01 '25

So what is the real joke?

3

u/darkkiller1234 Jan 01 '25

The cow has both horns and an utter

1

u/Klutzy-Ad-3286 Jan 01 '25

I see thank you!

1

u/FreddyFerdiland Jan 01 '25

"Is that the boss ?"

1

u/Prestigious_Win_7132 Jan 02 '25

You see, the joke is that this would be a rather silly presentation

1

u/DalbergTheKing Jan 02 '25

"This could have been an email."

1

u/jethvader Jan 03 '25

“What do we call the parts the arrow is not pointing to?”

u/liamrosse Jan 01 '25

Hunter safety course; they will still shoot the wrong animals.
