Today’s cartoon, by Asher Perlman:

A man onstage in a tuxedo opens an envelope. Squares show the reactions of five audience members, one of whom is rising from his seat.

“And the Oscar goes to . . . Kendra’s new boyfriend, Jeremy, for his performance as Guy Who Is Interested in College Sports as Much as Her Father Is.”
