Some of the funniest jokes begin with situations so ordinary that we barely notice how strange they really are. Cartoonist Jim Benton has built a career around spotting those everyday contradictions and turning them into clever, unexpected punchlines. With his instantly recognizable minimalist style and razor-sharp sense of humor, Benton pokes fun at modern relationships, social media, pets, office life, and the questionable decisions we all make.
His humor is clever without being complicated, sarcastic without feeling overly mean, and relatable enough to make readers think, “I’ve definitely done that.” After recently featuring another collection of Benton’s wonderfully offbeat cartoons, we were excited to return with even more of his work. Be sure to check out our previous feature as well, where you can find more comics and learn about the ideas behind his distinctive sense of humor.
Scroll down to enjoy the collection, upvote the cartoons that made you laugh the most, and let us know which familiar situation Benton captured a little too accurately.

Funny how netizens are always pointing out nepotism within acting circles, but never ever raise the issue of corporations. Who cares about some actor's kid while corporations are controlling our government?

"Daisy" (my dog) would tackle me every time I did that. Neighborhood kids used to love it!

Tourist season started two weeks ago in France and last week I saw a woman taking a picture of her ice cream. Her ice cream.

Why are those two looking at the aisle seat guy? Is he the one that was supposed to bring it? Is he the reason the plane's going to crash?

Just wear ear buds like I do. Keeps people at bay, and music staves off dementia for 40% of older people.

For most of my life, I would've agreed with the dog. But in retirement, I don't have to shovel, scrape, or carry a box of extra clothing, food, and blankets in the unforeseeable event I don't make it to my destination. I'm dreaming of winter when the neighborhood is quiet, and I don't have to put ice packs on my neck like I've had to do this summer through these heat waves.

And this is why cats are better companions. Cat people know their cats are @ssholes, and cats know their humans are @ssholes making it a mutual relationship.

Sounds like my mother. After years trying to get pregnant, she resented her role as a mother. Listening to her yapping about what she gave up to have kids was extremely annoying, but minor compared to the neglect and @buse she doled out.

As if dogs need permission to eat cat p00p. Think about that the next time your dog licks your face.

This might be going over my head, but wouldn't a cow eating a burger be a better choice? I don't know of any burger joint that sells lamb burgers.

I've known people who think it's not them because it's everyone else. I've admitted, here on BP, that I always blamed the idiot bosses who fired me until I realized that I was the common denominator. An epiphany.

Definitely run of the mill with a soupçon of twirpy, which will add more variety to his purchase.

Somewhere in the early 2000s, before various notable social media platforms began sucking our brains dry.
