Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 30, 2013

Could’ a been a crab claw instead of a napkin.

Sell him the lobster roll for the price of the tuna melt. Just “customize” it while it’s still on the grill.

I’m kinda surprised he didn’t mention any other bodily openings…Hey, he had it coming..

somebodyshort, yeah, me too….The doctor gave me some suppositories one time. They tasted awful……., And for all the the good they did, I might as well have shoved them up my butt……

When I was young and naive my father-in-law remarked that Listerine was good for hemorrhoids. So I wiped… actually, it did clear them up within a day. Then he finished with the punchline- you’re supposed to gargle with it.

Does Eddie’s pipe do emoticons?

jreckard, good question…Hey everybody, how long has Eddie’s pipe been doing question marks and exclamation points? I caught last weeks, but I bet some went by that I didn’t notice..

She really needs to put up a sign that reads “No politicians and lawyers allowed”.

That guy sounds exactly like the arguments for border amnesty: Let them stay, it’ll be good for the economy, we’ll secure the border soon we promise, it’s better than doing nothing at all. Yeah right, I wasn’t born yesterday!

Customer sounds like a real estate agent. Show him the door (he’s probably got comps on the door, too).

Hey, if all he wants is a “seafood sandwich,” sell him the tuna and tell him it’s lobster.

Come to think of it, isn’t that the reasoning behind the “chained CPI” thing? (There. That should kick off the all-day political argument…)

It would depend on who was standing on who’s ground!

All of a sudden, I want a tuna fish sandwich. (I can’t afford the lobster roll.)

Nice.

Did you apply for the salesman job that was onoffer a few days ago? You sound like an aptcandidate.

Sooo,,, Wall Street traders eat at Flo’s?

I think Flo should consider putting Captain Eddie on the pay roll as a bouncer or at least a janitor…he can definitly clear the diner with a few choice words!

I really must visit that diner one day…

My wife and I visited the coast of Maine for 2 weeks in Aug. 2012 and LOVED the lobster rolls. Last year was a bumper crop for lobster, so they were around $6.75 to 8 bucks depending upon where we were. The lobster rolls were new to me (we’re from Orygun), so we had one practically every day. Sadly, can’t find them out here (lots of fresh salmon instead).

Flo and Eddie have everything under control when it comes to shyster customers. Good for them!

wish we could do that to those people who want to customize their sandwich at subway. jam those napkins in every cavity. and, waterboard them under soda machine.

@vwdualnomand

Well….that makes no sense as it’s Subway’s way of doing things that EVERY sandwich is prepared to the customer’s specifications/customizations.

caddy57. Everyone wants certain services from govt. Unfotunately, in order to accomplish this taxes must be paid. In this case, what the majority wants, everyone has to chip into pay for(that is what a republic is). There are many things that I think govt should not do, but I simply shut my mouth even tho I have been one of the 47% who don’t pay any income taxes since 1970 due to the fact that #1 I was sent to Vietnam on 12 Jan 70-soldiers in war zones pay no taxes-and #2 due to injuries suffered while on active duty, I have been receiving a 100% VA disability pension ever since-which is also non taxable) and I for one am pretty damn sick of the gop and their Authoritarian Followers bitching about something they know nothing about and apparently do not want to know 70% of the 47% pay payroll taxes-working full time minimum wage jobs 17% get social security as their sole income-they worked their entire lives at fairly low wage jobs the other 13% are students, social security disability, soldiers on active duty in a war zone and VA disability. mysources for this are; census bureau,urban institute,brookings institute, tax policy center. Because after romney made his infamous remark, which has been repeated constantly by almost every member of the gop, I decided to do what apparently the msm was incapable of doing. I looked it up. Took me all of about 10 min. Thus endeth my rant against gop Authoritarian Followers and the idiot msm where as always IOKIYAR.

Its annoying when people haggle at a business that does not haggle. Like the ad-lib. I’m sure it was the ‘family’ version that was given.

timbob, well put…Most of us here prefer not to go political,(Unless it happens to be about politics….Then we go bat crap crazy!) But once it turns that way, defend your ideas…Just don’t feed the trolls who try to make everything political……

Sorry to hear that, I liked Night-Gaunt49.But it seems as tho’ GuardSGT met a similar fate. Now if we could just get rid of Tucci.

You’ve gotta be kidding. Flo’s looks exactly like Barney’s Cove, or Lunt’s Lobster Pound and there ain’t no tuna anything on the menu..I do remember some years ago Red Lobster had to pull up stakes in Maine because they couldn’t cook like the locals..There’s a very old tale about a sharper insisting on a well below market value deal, and the old shrimper sold him the bait shrimp. Thurber Carnival has a variation of it.

I wouldn’t shed a tear for Sarge, but I’d be curious why NightGaunt would get banned.

re: Night-Gaunt49 … Hope you’re wrong, and he’s just out of town or something.

Always enjoy his posts.

“Nose?”

Looks like you have been reading Aunty Acid on GO Comics.

Flo’s expression in panel four is priceless.
