For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for May 21, 2014

Oh, Oh, Annie…I thought you were PG! Personally, my hub prefers an extra 10-15 pounds…he likes curves not sticks. So, Elly, tell That to John! ;)

Annie you have curves and you look good. I think Elly could be mad at John for saying what he said

Men, NEVER try to “help” a woman.

Of course, when a strip show them at the beach, and John’s eyes are goggling out ogling the bikini-clad hotties, Elly’s not supposed to be upset because, in his opinion, her days as an attractive woman are behind her. I’m surprised he didn’t say " You’re not a woman, you’re a mom."

Oh, boy, that’s poking at the hornet’s nest with a Louisville Slugger, Think I’ll check back for responses you get later today…should be interesting.

Had to Google that (I knew the Lucky Strike reference) and came up with three possibilities…none of them particularly good.

I was perfectly happy at 120, but doing vegetarian for a year seems to have changed my metabolism for the better. I dropped to a morning weight of 106-110 and there it remains, even though I occasionally indulge (like the pizza and sugar soda I bought to support the youth group at square dance last night). I’m 108 this morning :-)

Of course, there would be a way for John to better appreciate Elly and ignore flaws. Join me on a deployment to Afghanistan! I guarantee after six months plus of dodging bullets, having to spend each waking moment worrying if you are going to be blown to pieces by an IED that each man returns home grateful to have a woman to come home to!

John could’ve said “look chunky in that swimsuit” but people think it’s funny to insult their loved ones

We men fade in value too.

I think there was a strip years later where April was in the school restroom thinking how ugly she looked with zits on her face. Meanwhile another girl is watching her, envious that April has curves while she’s so skinny.

Ellie if you have low self esteem don’t complain to your neighbor. I had a former supervisor who had a fat gut.When I went to visit my old office he gloated in my face that he had lost his gut and I was heavy. I shrugged my shoulders and smiled. He was mad as hell. Lesson to be learned. If you’re ugly and repulsive nothing will help you.

Gee,and no one’s chasing you down? Shocking!!!! (Eyeroll)

Have you ever noticed that those who insult your looks must not have any mirrors in their homes?
