Transcript:
Jimbo: We'll never solve our money issues sitting at the kitchen table.
Jimbo: We need a new strategy...I'm open to suggestions.
Rose: Okay.
Jimbo: Do you really think moongazing will improve our finances?
Rose: No...just our attitudes!
Really. Tell us, please, which jobs are exclusively mens jobs in the 21st Century. Oh, sorry to have awakened you there in the 15th Century. Go back to sleepzzzzzzzzzzzzz
As Rose said, the moonlight won’t improve finances, but will improve attitudes. Someone who calls someone else a numbskull needs a lot of attitude improving, IMHO. It must be 5 oclock wherever you’re lurking; why not get started on an attitude improver right now? Buh-bye!
“Her job is in the home, not taking a man’s job away from other men so they can’t find jobs.”You forget to give the details: She should be barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen.Seriously, Hollie, wouldn’t you be more comfortable living under the Taliban in Afghanistan? It sounds like their oppressive treatment of women would be highly approved of by you.
This puts me in mind of a lovely Sunday strip (back before they included them—Pfui!) Rose was sitting on the hill in autumn twilight; Jimbo yelled out the window, “Rose, I’m missing some important documents—our statements of net worth!” Rose thought for a moment, then said, “Look in the shoebox wrapped with gold ribbon under the bed.” Jimbo pulled the box out, looked, and said, “These aren’t our statements of net worth! These are our old…love letters.” The final panel had them together on the hillside. “Find what you needed?” “Your directions were perfect!”

They should have left the paperwork indoors. Take a break from it and concentrate on one thing at a time.
@bpullin – Rose already has a full time job cleaning up after the cat.

Um, do you even read this strip? Since when is Rose lazy? “A man, he works from sun to sun, but a woman’s work is never done.”

There’s another alternative to Rose getting a job… cut back on expenses.
btw… who the heck does their finances on a calculator any more? Spreadsheets and Quicken folks…

Why do you people bother answering hollie2009ad when you know he/she is a Troll? Why don’t we all just Flag “its” comments?

Rose and Jimbo have such a sweet attitude (but even that sometimes needs a little tweek by some romantic time outdoors.

Please tell me this is a joke. Jobs don’t belong exclusively to men.
