The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for October 25, 2013

oh, what’s that tunel. Thank goodness that don’t have a smell phone

Lay it all out, don’t hold anything back, Joy.

Don’t ask for whom the bowl tolls.

The audio is out of sync in today’s panel. The phone is ringing after it’s been answered and Joy is poofing after she’s been fully evacuated.

Maybe for those committed to a 24/7/52 weight gain diet full evacuation is a long forgotten dream.

I think today’s Dinette Set really works if you imagine that Burl is Rod Serling.

Notice Joy said meeting and not a-meetin’. Classing it up.

The poor phone looks absolutely nonplussed.

Who wants to touch that telephone right now? Can germs travel thru the wires?

Even the Find-It moon is turned around so as not to be facing Joy.

Saturday is good cos there’s no TV show marked on their calendar…. which would, of course, have taken precedence over meeting their daughter’s boyfriend’s parents.

After all, they can do that any day… even after the kids get married… and if they don’t get married, they won’t have wasted time meeting his parents.

I mean, Full House is only on twice a week…. yes, they’re re-runs…. but they just can’t get enough of that cute little Olsen girl.I heard she had a twin sister…where is she?

GymShoe…. yesterday…. one star on the table, one on Joy’s blouse near the armpit.

The moon is melting. Others need to find it before it “POOFS” away.. Looks like she is scratching?? I would definitely not eat there now..

If my choices were a Jerry in a speedo panel or a fresh off the pot Joy panel I’d make sure I was in deep bossa nova lessons with Bobby Burgess and Sissy King.

Uncouth. This should be some meeting on Saturday.

After this visit, Patty’s new boyfriend will become her new ex-boyfriend. lol

AY-yi-yi……where’s the BB? Is part of Joy’s THONG showing?……or worse? .@gmforde: Ms. Larson owes us for today’s strip so she better show the meeting between families!

Good Grief, her pants are split, she has a terrible case of gas, and her plumbers crack is showing. this is a gross situation. Who is Patty’s new boyfriend, he better run now, sorry Patty.

WHAT THE HELL was Patty thinking? From now on, she’ll sure tell her boyfriends that she’s an orphan. “Yes. My parents were killed saving baby ducks from a rabid tiger. It was tragic, but I try to remember them fondly.”

Even I would be embarrassed to express to strangers that they caught me on the toilet (and I’d just let it ring and call back). That’s another reason for caller ID.@BAB, you’re fitting right in. If I were Susan or Marge, I’d gift you some of their Brain Bleach.

Could I have a double helping of the Brain Bleach, please?

Well, the boyfriend’s parents will be fore warned.

I still say Patty was swapped at birth with another child. There’s no WAY she’s related to those uncouth buffoons!

What was Jerry doing that he couldn’t answer the phone?

OMG I just had a terrible thought, what if Patty’s boyfriend’s parents are exactly like Burl and Joy! the grandchildren are DOOMED!

So was Burl just standing by the phone yelling for Joy to answer it, causing her to waddle over with the “job” only half done?

Just went online and paid my property tax for remainder of the year online _ getting easier all the time. Good night now!
