I… Don’t get it. But please accept my upvote.
Before things like PowerPoint were invented presentations were done with projectors and slide decks. Each slide was on a piece of film and had to be interested into the slide deck one by one and in the correct orientation. It seems that whoever put the slides in put multiple ones upside down.
I appreciate the clarification zzz711 :) . I’m with accideath, however. I’m old enough to remember classic photo projectors, but I fail to see the punch line.
Maybe there’s a joke about the Air Force failing to distinguish between Up and Down? Or perhaps the leadership of a project involving such complex mechanics as Nuclear Warheads is not expected to be comically inept with a simple projector.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That was my first thought
I get that. I just don’t get why that’s funny. Have that with the vast majority of the farside cartoons. They always feel like they’re missing the punchline, to me.
The military is making WMDs but can’t get the slides presented properly.
If that’s it, it’s pretty good IMO.
Every time I see one of these in my feed I feel exactly the same. Even those that I understand the humor of, I find not particularly funny.
They have not aged well. 12 year found them endlessly hilarious.
I agree pretty strongly with this generally. The farside has a way of having jokes that are so simple on it’s face that I’m left thinking “surely I’ve missed something?” Usually it turns out that no, in fact, I got the joke and was just vastly underwhelmed.
For whatever reason I found this one to be mildly funny. Couldn’t tell you why. Perhaps it’s the idea that the people who built the atomic bomb weren’t that smart after all?
Take that, kangaroos.
