For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for April 28, 2014

Don’t test your mother on that one, Michael in the final panel.

Michael…you’re pushing it…especially if you are looking for your allowance! ;)

I guess he did not want his allowance that bad after all! LOL!!!

Isn’t it ironic that he grew up and became a book author…

Smart ass !!!!!! 8^(

Cute, Michael, but as I tell my kids, timing is important and now is not the time or place!

do not see where he was told to stay out. He was told not to barge in. He was probably walking fast and talking loud to his mom, that is disrespectful and obnoxious. He needs to learn manners and I think Elly is on spot in teaching him. And “NO mike you won’t get your allowance right now”

I’d send him home right now with no allowance. And when I got home he’d get a good talking to. But Elly the wimp will probably just hand it over to get rid of him.

Bah! In our county library the noise level approaches that of the high school football stadium on Friday night, and most of the racket is contributed by the library staff themselves. That said, Michael is still a little snot and deserves to leave the library just as broke as he was when he entered it.

Great set up for the punch line.

It brings to mind this hilarious bit from the Canadian TV series ‘Corner Gas’ when Brent visits Dog River’s tiny public library.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3caSxxSylQ
