   Only 2 are shown as Yahtzees, since it takes five of a kind (perhaps one or more wasn’t available for posting).

   Nice appropriation of the gaming term to describe the tendency. Common associations are the low-hanging fruit (easily accessible) of editorial cartooning. While they may be less creative than more subtle associations, they are also probably most easily identifiable to a reader and thus can get a message across pretty effectively. I don’t see why editorial cartoonist would take offense identifying a Yahtzee, it’s not like a personal attack … just a fact.

   Then again, I didn’t expect 200 posts to the BC thread either! 😉
