see you in the funny papers

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-see you in the funny papers2.wav

Probably a humorous elaboration of see you or see you later (“a phrase used at parting, and not necessarily implying that the person being addressed will be seen later by the speaker”). The funny papers are the pages of a newspaper containing comic strips; the implication appears to be that the person addressed will do something ludicrous which will end up featured in a comic strip.

Bye, Bye, I'll see you in the funny papers. See?

1915 January 13, “The ‘fish’ and ‘whick’: Had a little conversation about the school work”, in W[illiam] Y[oast] Morgan, editor, The Hutchinson News, last edition, volume XXVIII, number 275, Hutchinson, Kan.: [s.n.], →OCLC, page 12, column 6:

"I'll see you in the funny papers." This is the remark that Alice White passed to Arthur Lake on the beach near Los Angeles last summer. It was a bit of current slang, but Alice little dreamed it would come true. But it has. A few months later Arthur was assigned to play the title role in First National Pictures' screen version of the famous funny paper comic, "Harold Teen." Miss White was given the role of Giggles in the picture.

Though [Russell] Myers puns a lot, it was interesting to note that when he said goodbye, he did not tack on the quip, "see you in the funny papers." He probably knows that everyone would.

A cyclic wheezing, groaning noise began as Vin approach the back wall. The vworp vworp noise was synchronized with a flashing blue light on top, as the gigantic three-dimensional holographic wall displayed a London 1950 police call box. Vin snatched the door open, stepping inside.

վայ

From Old Armenian վայ (vay). The adverbial usage is a semantic loan from Russian го́ре (góre).

Վայ, ի՞նչ արեց։

cry of distress, woe!; cry of negative amazement


վայ

PIE word
 *wáy
Borrowed from Parthian 𐫇𐫀𐫏 (wʾy /wāy/) or Middle Persian 𐫇𐫀𐫏 (wʾy /wāy/, “woe, woe to!”) (whence Persian وای (vây)), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *wáy. The attempts to treat վայ (vay) as an inheritance from Proto-Indo-European *wáy are unnecessary and irregular, as word-initial prevocalic *w- yields գ- (g-) in Armenian: compare գայլ (gayl), գառն (gaṙn), գետ (get) etc, whereas the Iranian borrowing is perfectly regular.
