Humorous Argument

My example came from the comic strip B.C. The cartoon comments on one of the main criticisms that people have with natural gas drilling which is building too close to citizen's homes. The cartoon substitutes ants for people (source of the humor) and shows a gas drill being inserted into earth and the ants home. One of the ants then says "Guess it's time to move." This echoes the response of many who have seen unsightly gas rigs erected near their homes.
