Of local interest only. Who's Marion Barry?
Too specific.
Outdated subject.
Too local. Plus, J.Carter Brown's dead.
Too local. How many times are you going to use this gag?
Too local. Also, I'd lost it.
Too weird.

Old & Lost Almanacs
Here are a few Almanacs that, because it was a local, DC strip or for one reason or another was too outdated, have not been seen since their original publication in the Post. Hey, I got a million of these. My objections follow each image.
Strained humor, of local interest only.
Out of date.

"Too weird." This seems to be a new criterion for you. Quite frankly, I'm surprised you can tell the difference.
It's a matter of degree.
I'm with David Apatoff.
I like Richard Thompson Weird.
Speaking of local-interest cartoons, it's thanks to Miss Bliss's class visit to the National Gallery that I always stop and admire the ventilation system grilles when showing out-of-town guests around. And I've got a Ph.D. in art history, so they pay attention.
All highly accurate & drawn from life.
