Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for April 29, 2010

Andy, you never let me down. By the way, since Flo is up couldn’t she get you a beer?

Yes she could, because she’s not going anywhere!

He has his priorities straight. It’s just that you’re not one of them.

Clark, am I to assume that you do not approve of Mr. Capp?

eh, could be.

\\//_

Don’t you think that’s a little harsh, clark?

If it weren’t for Andy, we wouldn’t have a comic strip.

It just touches your heart when two people have been together as long as Flo and Andy have been it’s a sign of their love that they still have little pet names for the other. Andy stopped her in her tracks, Flo is such a lucky lady!

Once again Flo’s rage issues get the better of her. World Cup only comes around every 4 years and as we all know Andy is full of national pride. Perhaps if Flo had her priorities straight she would see this and celebrate with Andy.

When will Flo learn to face up to her problems instead of always running away from them?

Flo should turn right around and watch the match on TV with Andy, rather than being to completely inflexible all of the time. Instead she will likely go home to “Mum” where they can both feed off of each others bitterness toward men, followed by an assortment of pastries.

When will she learn?

This one’s a classic. “Number One Whatsit”, indeed! Not quite in Steve Dallas’ or Limpid Lizard’s league as a lopsided romantic poet, but getting there…

Andy DOES have his priorities straight:

1: Beer 2: Footy (Soccer to us Yanks) 3: Having pocket money (here’s where Flo comes in)

Flo made the top three, so that should count for something.

Flo you will never leave Andy anyway you like giving him money to the pub gets him out of the house and you peace and quite for a while. Until he comes home loud and bad.

Ahem! Andy begs Flo to stay with him at their home. He doesn’t want her to leave him because he has no MONEY to buy a beer or go to the pub without MONEY. Sighhhh! Sheeshhhhh! Let Flo go to her mum’s home for a while till Andy has to think and straight up with his dumb priorites.

Andy Capp is the best satire on my daily comic circuit. Keep it up Reg, I love it.

“all sanity is lost.”

HE SCORES!!!!! no, not andy. it was a funny strip that had to catch up to me!
