Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for December 20, 2024

The cry of anguish (AAUGH!) is similar to the cry of Charlie Brown after Lucy pulls the football away from his kicking foot.

Don’t want to see what that bed looks like, either.

Look in the mirror Zoe. Tattletales are usually considered for the naughty list

too little, too late

Nice try Hammie!

BTW Hammie, Santa knows nobody’s perfect!

Had Congress gotten around to finalizing the NN List? Next year, Trump will refuse to sign…

It’s okay Hammie. It goes ‘in the bank’ for next year’s list. You just better hope it was really good, or you’ll be starting next year in a hole.

I think the deadline is Christmas eve.

Chill out, Hammie! There’s plenty of ways to have fun with a sack of coal! There… Um… Well, there’s… no that’s not it… Ugh… GAH! Forget it! Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time!

The kids are looking a bit jaundiced, they’re the same color as the furniture, which is almost the same shade as the wall…

Zoe you love o torment Hammie.

Zoe is going to have ‘egg on her face’ come Christmas morning and Hammie gets the last laugh.

When my sons were younger, they used to be able to tidy their rooms in 30 seconds. They’d just pile everything (read that as throw haphazardly) in the wardrobe out of sight. You just had to be careful opening the doors to the wardrobe afterwards.

Just kiss him, Zoe. It’s made him wash his face before.

I wasn’t going to like this, but that “30 seconds” did make me laugh.

You’re in the Danger Zone yourself, Zoe.

Nice try Hammie.

Did you discover the soap to wash with?
