Didn’t Arlo already have a heart attack some time ago, while Gene was still home? IIRC, JJ was relating his own recent experience at the time.

There are times when I was glad not to be around when the idiots who thought they did better got canned for doing worse; I would never know if I could resist the urge to gloat.

In other news, Janis has a job, which is rarely if ever mentioned or discussed. That ain’t normal.

Comic license allows for occasional shift of employment status as required by plot lines. No guarantee of consistent status is expressed or implied. For clarification, consult your local pundit comment posters. Results may vary. .But even when retired, “work” still means that place you used to have to go to.

She may not know the guy but she knows Sue and she cares about Sue.
She does have a life and it includes caring about her friends.

“d his last comment is truly sincere . . .”I think his comment is sarcastic and he knows good and well what he’s doing.

Whenever I say something absurd like that (I’m a really funny guy ) my wife says I shouldn’t put things like that “out there”, whatever that means.

Once my wife told me that the husband of someone she knew died after many long decades of marriage. I asked if the woman liked her now dead husband and my spouse became angry. I mean…the incident could have been a relief.

Someone from work called a co-worker to tell them someone they don’t even know had a heart attack, that is odd.People have heart attacks every day, you can’t make a fuss about all 7 billion strangers.
