I loved that one! My boss made some comment about Waiting for Godot and then I described this cartoon to him. "And the banner says 'Beckett on Ice' and it's just too guys standing on the ice looking around". He chuckled confusedly like he didn't know who Samuel Beckett was or what Waiting for Godot is about. It's funny how Godot has become a detached from it's original meaning and now just floats around in the lexicon as shorthand for "boring existentialist modern play."
