This might even work in English...

Easy one...

[sammy]

...I suppose this isn't too difficult either

I'm having a bit of trouble with the word, Menetkös..... I think it means, "Are you sure you are going?".... but I don't really get the joke...and why is he throwing his slipper....

I'm having a bit of trouble with the word, Menetkös..... I think it means, "Are you sure you are going?"

That’s what it nominally means, yes... but when said with an angry tone of voice it’s no longer a question. The meaning morphs into something like: “Now buzz off / get lost, will you!(?)”

Menetkös siitä! is a common idiom. (siitä = “from there”, “from the position/location where you’re currently standing”)

but I don't really get the joke...and why is he throwing his slipper.... :?

“Drive somebody home” (in your car or something) vs “drive somebody off/away and back to their home”.

[Pursuivant]

The joke is the dual etendre of the word "drive"...in English would be "I can give you a lift" and the last picture the old guy carrying him.

Today's comic was a bit trickier

säkki = “sack”... rather than “bag”

saatanallinen = literally “satanic” but the word can also be used for (rude) emphasis... in which case it could mean something like “humongous”, “unwieldy”, “outrageous”, depending on the subject matter. Compare to helvetillinen, “hellish” or jumalaton, “godless”, which are often used the same way.
