Ellie just tried to protect very needy Connie from yet another mistake.
Unfortunately you really can’t protect people like that. Connie would see something “good” in even that BC pig farmer….. since he is (or was) male and single.
Connie is a lousy judge of men, and continues to make lousy choices concerning men (and her child for that matter), because she is always too desperate to see straight. If a woman dressed as a man came walking down the street, Connie would run out the door and throw herself at the person. It’s all she ever does. It’s why men run as fast as they can from her.
Ted is such a jerk that Connie would get all starry eyed, and stalk him for years once he started treating her like a servant.
I think they would serve each other right, but I don’t remember a Connie/Ted realtionship.
Well, at least Phil can rest easier now that Connie has someone else to stalk for a change!
Meanwhile, when Ted’s true chauvinistic colors come shining through and yet another one of Connie’s relationships go south, Elly can tell her “I told you from before the beginning what kind of guy he was!!!”

i don’t think elly would introduce ANY of her female friends to ted - fastest way to lose them…
ooops, forgot that there are still women who like that type of hominoidea.

Maybe Ted puts on a good game for the first impression, but then his true colors come out later. Walk slowly away from this situation, Elly.

Lot’s of discussion about Ted, nothing new.
Today’s strip tells us a lot more about what kind of girl Connie really is. One girls dirtbag is another girls “wonderful, fantastic, cute and sweet.”

Maybe Ellie is a workmate, while Connie needs to be on a pedestal.

I think Connie once said the same thing about Elly’s brother.

The last thing a pig like Ted wants is a “needy clinging vine”. Elly knows !

Spoiler alert: Isn’t this budding relationship the reason Connie moves away in a year or so?

Lawrence turns out just fine, so I’m not sure what you mean by the last dig.
