Come on someone, put me out of my misery!
Well, all right, it's not that dramatic and certainly not serious. I'm just intrigued, in a totally light-hearted way.
So:
What on Earth is that Sandra & Woo cartoon at the head of the page about?
We see a young woman who, to use the correct, modern Claire in the Community lingo, seems to suffer from Acute Species Dysphoria; and her boyfriend, a nut-cake addict who believes he can cast magic spells with ordinary cutlery. I hope the so-called "religious right" don't get him - you know, the supposedly-grown-ups who had severe attacks of the vapours over the children's Harry Potter stories.
Go on - I don't get the joke! Does it refer to an American children's game or something?
:-)))
PS: Claire in the Community: a BBC Radio Four situation-comedy that started as, and still is, a newspaper cartoon strip, about a team of urban social-workers and their own personal problems, sorry, "issues". Claire is the team-leader who prissily spouts all the right PC / Sociology waffle but like the rest of the team, her private life is not much less mixed-up than those of their clients.

Very odd!
I asked originally in an entirely light-hearted manner, assuming it's meant to be there, but if others can't see it then I assume it's not something AnswerMug or one of its sponsors has added. Though if it was, it's hard to see its purpose, if indeed it has any: the picture and dialogue I see have no obvious joke, direction or point, though might be a sample from a longer cartoon-strip.
Where the Hell is it coming from, then?
On my display it's directly under the line starting "Discussion >> Question... " It's there every time I open AM, so it's not something that has just arrived.
Just as well I have not tried to see if any part of it is a link, in case it's actually an attack.
JA: any ideas?
I don't know if I can copy & paste the image here: let's try it.

Oh Ruddy 'Ell! On mine at least it filled the page below the cartoon with displayed code! It gives the source in that: something called "www - projectwonderful - com". I've managed to delete most of it, not only because it was clutter but also the "running" icon (little ring of dots) was operating in 2 or 3 places among it, rather worryingly. I'm beginning to think it's a virus-carrier of some sort. I'll set my security software going.....
