In his work on the TV shows Soap and Saturday Night Live, his acting in the films Princess Bride, City Slickers, and When Harry Met Sally, in his books and plays, and as the host of nine Oscar Awards telecasts, he has made millions of people simultaneously laugh and think – and that’s not easy.

With his writing and illustrations published in more than 400 issues, Jaffee submitted more work to MAD magazine than any other contributor. And the inside back cover, that folded in to make a secret, editorial cartoon, that was Jaffee’s creation.

The iconic b/w photo of Al Jaffee (left) and Will Elder in the cafeteria of New York City's High School for Music and the Arts, 1936. These two became some of Mad Magazine's most prolific contributors.

An example of the "fold in," created by Al Jaffee. By folding the page(s) in (making the guideline arrows meet), it revealed a completely different - and usually quite snide - bonus comic.

It is the birthday of the cartoonist who created the "fold in." American original Al Jaffee was born on this day in 1921.

He began writing as a sports columnist and demonstrated a skill at satire that eventually endeared him to some of the most well-known authors of his time. Ernest Hemingway, Virginia Woolf, and F. Scott Fitzgerald praised his writing, possibly because Lardner wrote things like, “Mr. Fitzgerald is a novelist. Mrs. Fitzgerald is a novelty.”

It is the birthday of the author who wrote,
“Are you lost, Daddy?” I asked tenderly.
“Shut up,” he explained.”
-American storyteller extraordinaire Ring Lardner, born on this day in 1885

Twitter post from user "@MikeIrvo" who says quote "The Audio log you find in a trashed office in a sci-fi horror game:" to which they post a screencap of musk saying on Twitter about NeuraLink "The first human received an implant from NeuraLink yesterday and is recovering well. Initial results show promising neuron spike detection." This is a meme.

A meme image which displays an image of a CookOut sign which advertises a selection of their menu. " Dookie Cough Shakes Caramel Fudge Banana Peach " A social media user replies quote "Dookie Cough is how folks were dying on the Oregon Trail" The sign probably intended to spell "Cookie Dough" but spelled "Dookie Cough" instead.

My family crest is a potato masher.

I'm serious. If we had a banner to carry into battle, it would just be this [mimes holding up a potato masher] wavy metal thing on a stick. Our motto would be "Just Mash It Yourself, For God's Sake."

I was getting a record player down from a shelf and it dropped on my head!

But it didn't affect me.
It didn't affect me.
It didn't affect me.
It didn't affect me...

And there's the funny of the day!
