YMMV / Blondie (1930)

• Accidental Innuendo: In one very old strip, Dagwood is explaining to Alexander about how to make a Dagwood Sandwich, explaining what each ingredient brings to the whole. He explains to Alexander that "The sausage makes it gay". Yes, Dagwood, I believe it would..... but not these days!
• Memetic Mutation: "Don't touch that dial!" originated as a Catchphrase that CBS announcer Hanley Stafford used to open the Blondie radio show each week.
• Older Than They Think: A few visual gags actually came from this:
  • The Dagwood Sandwich is the Trope Namer. A surprising amount of people think it came from Scooby-Doo.
  • The visual gag of someone carrying a bunch of boxes with only their legs visible in fact came from this comic strip.
• Parody Displacement: The strip started out as a parody of the many "pretty girl" melodramas (like Tillie the Toiler) that spread on the funny pages during the late 1920s and early 1930s, but became forgotten in the ensuing decades.
• Protagonist Title Fallacy: While the strip is named "Blondie", Dagwood is more often than not the centric character in a strip.
• Retroactive Recognition: "Blondie, stop this crazy thing!"^note That said, Penny Singleton originally started out as a film actress, which is what she was known for at the time, but is best remembered today for a role that some have suspected to be a Blondie Expy (additionally, her husband got fired and rehired almost if not just as often as Dagwood).
