Question: Memorable cartoon?

I'm having trouble deciding which of my zillion photos should I frame. So I've decided to frame a nice cartoon/comic that will make me and most people laugh. Do you have a memorable cartoon you would like to see framed?

I really like the last Calvin & Hobbes strip, and about a million other C&H strips.

This one isn't funny, but more poignant and simple prose.

This penny arcade strip is a nice encapsulation of playing an old favourite game.

I also immediately thought of my favorite Calvin & Hobbes strip.

I have this xkcd on my wall and find it gets good reactions (though smiles, more than laughter). Lots of other xkcd strips might fit the bill, depending on your interests.

I'm a fan of Perry Bible Fellowship's Bear Boy, but Instant Bacon is probably more memorable and well-known.

Leunig is very frameable.

An inspirational C&H strip.

This Mutts strip has been hanging on our fridge forever, and I love it.

I'll nth calvin and hobbes, adding that my favorite strip is this one (text link, because I can't seem to find an image)

I would encourage you to reconsider a photo you've taken. Regardless of the one you select it'll have a personal story.

It is political and has a limited shelf-life but this cartoon is pretty rich. Another that seems to crop up on MeFi from time to time is funny and educational.

I think the final Calvin and Hobbes strip is a good choice, or something like this from Charlie Brown.

Both are pleasing pieces of art and good conversation starters.

I have this Little Dee in my craft room, and this one (also a Little Dee) in the hall on the way to the bathroom.

The nice thing about comics is that if you get a frame with a mat cut to standard comic size, you can rotate out as your mood sees fit. We've got a steady in and out of Get Fuzzy strips in our kitchen, depending on how we're both feeling.

I keep this Pictures For Sad Children as a (de?)motivational poster.

oh, and one more, because I love this question: Who washes their bath towels, anyway? (middle strip)
