The Corpus Callosum

Yet Another Annoying Cartoon

We used to see a lot of cartoons that portray a psychiatrist’s
couch.  That is not so common anymore.  When we do see them,
they tend to be annoying.  This is no different, because it is so
unrealistic.

No psychiatrist would put the couch under the window like that. 
It would defeat the purpose of the couch.

    “I never got the hang of that Feng Shui stuff.”

    Wouldn’t that be Freud Shui?

    yikes, i never realised that couch placement in comics was sore a sore spot. I’ll keep this and other “freud shui” lessons in mind next time I illustrate a psych office!
