The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for October 24, 2013

When you say you’re getting divorced, follow through, dag nabbit!!

Wait, this is Crustwood. Who looks stupid?

The problem is, everybody in this strip usually looks stupid.

x_Tech… great minds, and all….

So…. Joy wanted to tell Marlene to tell everybody that Jan looked stupid….

Meanwhile, Sue complains about Jan making her look stupid….and Joy and Verla ….well, they just look stupid on general principle..

It’s enough to make me drink an extra two cups of coffee.I’d eat one of those cute cupcakes, too….except I know where they’ve been.

Good Morning Crustwood!Two…. count them, TWO…. stars!

Leaky… where are you?

Lay off the cupcakes Joy, it looks like you gained a ton of weight!

Diarrhea of the mouth and constipation of the brain. There’s on’y one way to keep a secret—Keep it!

There is hope for Sue; the reconciliation probably won’t last.

Gossip makes everyone involved look stupid.

But the girls here thrive on it, nothing they say about anyone is true.

Most times it’s to hurt the person being talked about, so what’s the point?

But it is hard not to talk about people especially at work.gotta work on that one.

Wow! Sue IS stupid! She should be telling the stories about what led to the marital strife in the first place. (“And do you know what HE did? And you want to know what SHE said?”)Then there is the follow up on who gave in the most….Dang, girls, learn to gossip, will ya?

Gossip queens.

Sue has STP on her shirt…for her ‘motor mouth’?

I thought she was just being considerate with STD on her shirt. (Not that anyone would likely ever be in a position to be in danger. But you never know. There might be a blind man with no sense of smell.)

Am I nuts or is this a total rerun from a year or so ago?

@Susan, Leaky seemed to be getting bored here. It was fun when he made the digs (even some that were downright insulting). Having worked among engineers after raising 3 boys (and a girl who would not wear dresses after 2nd grade), I have thick skin for digs.

last I saw him was back around the time I posted photos of Debby and myself. It cannot be my imagination because at every age strangers were telling me of resemblance, but he was very insulting in the comparison images he provided.

I was just over at my oldest son’s FB page and see that he did the 20 pull-ups at the CO state fair to win a T shirt; proud of him @ 53.

Either the kitchen is getting smaller or the gals are putting on their winter bulk.
