Quote from Elaine in The Cartoon

Mr. Elinoff: Yeah, that's a rather clever jab at inter-office politics, don't you think?
Elaine: Yeah. But why is it that the animals enjoy reading the e-mail?
Mr. Elinoff: Well, Miss Benes cartoons are like gossamer and one doesn't dissect gossamer. [chuckles]
Elaine: Well, you don't have to dissect it if you could just tell me why this is supposed to be funny.
Mr. Elinoff: Oh, it's merely a commentary on contemporary mores.
Elaine: But what is the comment?
Mr. Elinoff: It's a slice of life.
Elaine: No, it isn't.
Mr. Elinoff: A pun?
Elaine: I don't think so.
Mr. Elinoff: Vorshtein?
Elaine: That's not a word. You have no idea what this means.
Mr. Elinoff: No.
Elaine: Then why did you print it?
Mr. Elinoff: I like the kitty.
Elaine: You know what? You people should be ashamed of yourselves. You know, you doodle a couple of bears at a cocktail party talking about the stock market, you think you're doing comedy.
Mr. Elinoff: Actually, that's not bad.
Elaine: Oh, really? Well, you know, I have others.
