How funny must a woman be to make it a comic strip?

I know you were being funny, but I'll be serious for a moment. When I looked up "strip" in the OED, it has 8 different citings, 4 for verbs and 4 for nouns. Of course many of the categories had dozens of sub-categories, such as "strip mall."

I hadn't realized how many meanings it has:

Verbs

1. To unclothe, denude

2. To move or pass swiftly

3. To extract (the milk from a cow's udder). Now spec. to extract the milk remaining in the udder after the normal milking, esp. by a particular movement of the hand

4. To cut into strips. Hence stripping

Nouns

1. ESTREPEMENT (U.S. law)

2. A narrow piece (primarily of textile material, paper, or the like; hence gen.) of approximately uniform breadth. pilaster strip (Arch.)

3. Tobacco-leaf with the stalk and midrib removed. Also strip-leaf.

4. STRIPE In some dialects of Scotland the form stripe in this sense is unknown in genuine vernacular speech; ‘strips’ is the only word, e.g. for the stripes of a tiger or a zebra.

This is no joke. I was at one time a stripper.

OK, it was an offset stripper (not a deformed nude), which is a term used in lithographic press preparation. But that's one def they left out.
