History Redundancy / ComicStrips

** In [[https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1998/02/15 one strip]], Garfield is asleep when Jon wakes him up telling it's time for bed. Seconds after Garfield falls back asleep in bed, he realizes the redundancy and {{Dope Slap}}s Jon.

* ''ComicStrip/{{Cathy}}'' does this in spades. Often the sentences or entire speech balloons will be identical except for the operative noun, and possibly an adjective. This leads to what is, for a newspaper comic, [[WallsOfText a lot of words]].
* ''ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}}''
** Dilbert asks Wally if he wanted to join his project, the TTP project. "What does TTP stand for?" "It stands for '''T'''he '''T'''TP '''P'''roject." Wally decided he'd rather be Dilbert's [[TheRival arch nemesis]].
** There's a lot of jokes on how the bureaucratic monstrosity that is Dilbert's company is rife with literal redundant departments of redundancy. [[http://dilbert.com/2011-04-27/ This comic sums it up nicely]].

* In ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'', when Calvin tells Susie about his new club "Get Rid Of Slimy [=GirlS=]," when he hears her respond with "Slimy girls?" he responds with "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint I know that's redundant, but otherwise it doesn't spell anything.]]" Of course, this is only Calvin's interpretation of it, but it's still pretty funny.
* In ''ComicStrip/OorWullie'', PC Murdoch's CatchPhrase is "Name, address, and whaur d'ye bide?" (Scots for "where do you live?") Increasing the redundancy is that he's almost always asking this of Wullie, and already ''knows'' all this.
* ''ComicStrip/{{BC}}''. The [[https://johnhartstudios.com/bc/2013/09/25/wednesday_september_25_2013/ strip for September 25th 2013]] has a meeting of the Redundancy Department with Peter as the Speaker.
-->'''Peter''': First off, roll call will be followed by a brief head count, after which we can quickly take attendance. But first, let's just see who's here today.

** Other strips have Jon repeating what he's [[http://www.garfield.com/comics/vault.html?yr=1993&addr=930127 already]] [[http://www.garfield.com/comics/vault.html?yr=1993&addr=930202 said]].
*** [[http://www.garfield.com/comics/vault.html?yr=1981&addr=810204 So has Garfield.]]

* ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'', during an arc when he [[http://www.garfield.com/comics/vault.html?yr=1984&addr=841213 gets lost and meets his mom]] in the Italian restaurant where he was born: "It's all gone! Where's the pasta? The people? The pasta? The excitement? The pasta?"

* ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}} once asked Wally if he wanted to join his project, the TTP project. "What does TTP stand for?" "It stands for '''T'''he '''T'''TP '''P'''roject." Wally decided he'd rather be Dilbert's [[TheRival arch nemesis]].

* In ''Oor Wullie'', PC Murdoch's CatchPrase is "Name, address, and whaur d'ye bide?" (Scots for "where do you live?") Increasing the redundancy is that he's almost always asking this of Wullie, and already ''knows'' all this.
