Uh, never ‘read’ Walt Kelly’s Pogo? Too late. I’ve been a fan since the first strip. Love it, but you’re funnier. Pogo makes me smile. You make me laugh out loud. It just dawned on me why alternative spellings are okay for Pogo, so, naturally, that makes them okay for you. Pay me no mind and carry on.
In one place I used to live, one of the neighborhood eccentrics was actually overly religious (as well as mentally challenged) and his “blessing” of passing cars looked too much like a Nazi salute. People nick-named him “Hitler” because so few people got it.
He means that you’re using the Jetpack plugin, and specifically the Photon feature, which serves images through WordPress.com. For example, here’s the URL for the above comic:
Adam, ask your website admin to disable the Photon module in the Jetpack plugin, he/she will know how. Of course, disabling it will put more strain on your server, so maybe you want to leave it on? Your call.
Adam, as a non-american, even as a non-canadian *gasp*, I must say you’re a valuable source of fun, pop-cultured and probably useless information. I’ve played skee-ball of course, but never heard its name till now.
Now I can brag in front of my girlfriend about this. Not sure if she’ll be proud of me, but I’ll gain a little smile un a world where little smiles matter
I don’t know why I love Hitler Bug’s stance in panel 2 so very much. If that had been the Nazi salute, think how funny the propaganda pics would have been.
In fairness, the “Nazi solute” was once considered a normal solute until the Nazis gave it a bad reputation, kinda like how the Swastika was actually a religious symbol for eastern religions long before Nazis made it look evil.
Hate to criticize, but you need some punctuation– possibly a dash– after “dunno” in panel 3, and it really should be “All right!” in panel 4.
Other than that, another twisted gem. What does your brain look like on the inside, Adam?
My friendly-motorist wave is more like the Queen’s.
“Alright” isn’t necessarily wrong – http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/alright
I think his “ALRIGHT” is just alright in that panel.
Yeah, I forgot a period, but I prefer to use “alright.”
I wish you wouldn’t, cuz it’s alwrong.
Do yourself a favor and never Walt Kelly’s Pogo.
Alright is perfectly alright. Even my spell check recognizes it.

Hitler may have been a Nazi, but he wasn’t a Grammar Nazi.
Beautiful Wisconsin by the sea.
Adam, if you and Hitler were buddies, he may probably want you to do the propaganda stuff for his next crusade?
That’d be a very interesting style of propaganda, I think!
I can picture “accidentally” hitting Hitler in the face with a skee-ball, it might be kinda satisfying in a strange way…
Hitler’s in Wisconsin because he likes cheese…and he’s a Packers fan.
Or he moved to Eau Claire. Not as much in the light mood, but we’ve had a Neo-Nazi problem over there.
You’d better beat him at skee-ball. Being buds with Hitler is one thing, but being worse than him? Dude.

Aawwww, ever since you started using wordpress to host the images, I can’t see them at work.
But fantastic comic as always!
I’ve always used WordPress.

I hope you guys don’t mind, I used Cody’s comment in a discussion on Quora of the pros and cons of the Jetpack plugin: https://www.quora.com/WordPress/What-do-you-think-of-Jetpack-for-Wordpress/answer/Odai-Athamneh
Make sure Hitler pays for the game. Playing is one thing, having to pay is completely wrong…
Skee ball with grenades!

Why is Hitler always such comedy ‘geld’?
Major Neuheim: [toasting at the last days of the war] To the Third Reich!
Private Schulz: [awkwardly] It was fun while it lasted?
I am offensive and I find this German.
xD

The salute used to be roman, actually. The swastika itself is a hindu symbol.
Go Packers!
Ha! Just a couple of weeks ago I was being roundly mocked by my friends for calling this gesture a mini-hitler-salute.
Also, stop stealing my thoughts.
I always knew those Wisconsin Nazis were up to no good.
It’s real bad in Eau Claire. I can’t even count how many times the neo-Nazis have been busted.
Hitler moments after the strip ends: “Wait… skee-ball… SKI-ball… that sounds too Polish, blech” <- Crisis averted
Wait, you live in Wisconsin? Awesome, I’m only a state away from a genius! Admittedly, I’m sure there are plenty here in MN too, but still…
If it’s any consolation, if Hitler was alive today he’d be old as balls – i.e, too old to start shit without a willing young henchman.
