Roz Chast, “Flavor of the Week.” The New Yorker, August 12, 2024. When asked about her cartoon, artist Roz Chast commented on how humor can be found in everyday situations, for example shopping at an ice cream parlor. “There are a lot of things I like about ice-cream stores aside from the ice cream itself. I like looking at the different colors and patterns of all the bins. I like comparing cones: wafer flat-bottom or pointy classic? And the names of the flavors: the more preposterous and baroque, the better.” Just as the cartoon above features a list of ice cream flavors, AntConc enables researchers to analyze names and patterns through word list analysis.
