See you in the funny papers. 

Also ... See you in the funny pages.

Refers to the comics section of the newspaper. Was a light hearted way to say goodbye, see you later, in the 1920s through WWII. Not derogatory at all. Could be used with a friend or casual acquaintance. Just a breezy way to say our lives are crazy, like the characters in the comics. Our lives are funny/ironic/interesting I wouldn't be surprised if someone started writing a comic strip based on us. I'll see you around, just as likely in the funny pages as anywhere else.

Hey, see you in the funny papers.

An expression used to refer to a light (not a serious /deep)conversation a person had enjoyed with another person, as if to say" I quite enjoyed our conversation, its Great to steer away from deep serious talks so.....see you next time and we'll get another light conversation like the one we had "
