Betty by Gary Delainey and Gerry Rasmussen for June 22, 2020

“A mother’s love”, even for a smart-ass son.

Snarky runs in this family.

Time and a mother’s love both seem pretty close to infinite to me though? Economics tells us that the price should be near zero.

Hey! We’re still in the shadow of Father’s Day – what about a father’s love?

LoL! Good one Junior! Way to wind her up! If Mamma ain’t happy, no one cares anyways.

I don’t know what the most “precious” commodity is, but I know what the most expensive thing is: printer ink.

Crème de la Mer?

Oxygen.. try getting along without it.

Yeah, nice if you can get it

These days, the most precious commodity is knowing who your father is…

If it is a commodity that means it is something bought and not freely given. Mother’s love is supposed to be unconditionally given otherwise it is not love. If Betty is in the business of selling her love to the highest bidder I do feel sorry for others around her.

Saw a report about a theft of Saffron (spice) in the UK. I don’t remember the value but that has to be high in the value ratings.

Every time Junior makes a totally disrespectful comment to his mother ( most days) makes me wonder what kind of life the guys who wrote this had – did they treat their moms this way and get away with it so think it’s funny – even for a comic, I don’t get it, this strip is more like a soap opera than a comic strip
