Angriest Rice Cooker Director’s Cut 23–On Jazz

This rather minimalist comic is intended as a parody of the overuse of jazz as a metaphor for…well basically anything, often by people who know almost nothing about jazz. At least the rice cooker owns up to the fact that he doesn’t know anything about jazz. I will admit that I have been guilty of “jazz as metaphor” on several occasions. Other similar cliches include “X is like making a salad” and “X is like making love to a beautiful woman.” Although I have a hard time imagining anyone using that second one outside of dumb fiction.

Making rice is a lot like jazz. I mean, I assume.
