    Just smile and keep walking, Elly. School isn’t a spa day either, John.

    John escapes family life during his work day, so I don’t really see his point. Ellie has kid/baby talk all day long, and I can understand her desire for something more intellectual at times!

    It’s a joke people. Have none of you ever teased or joked with your loved one? Your bias towards Jon is remarkable. Remember though, Ellie is no saint either.

    The spam is bad enough, but honestly, I find all the complaints and or notice of flagging just as bad. So this is my last post about spam

    Yeah, so? It’s your turn to spend an evening with the kids, John.

    “Yeah, so? It’s your turn to spend an evening with the kids, John.”

    And your problem is? John is holding Lizzie, and has a smile on his face. Why do you people have an issue with John? He admits Ellie needs the “means of escape” and is helping her by spending an evening with the kids. So grow up!

    Maybe if nobody pay attention to spam and nobody look for it, they will stop…

    I did the same as Elli and it has been awfully… I am sooo tired all day long and of course in class time and the worst part is that I have to research and write in the middle of the night!! I am exhausted but I am happy.

    Just an update: I took action today with the appropriate persons. Now we will see if anything happens with the spam.

    If my memory serves me well, which it doesn’t always, it was not too long ago that Elly was being bashed, unmercifully sometimes in my opinion, in every strip. Now if John is bashed occasionally, almost everyone jumps to his defense. What gives? As for the spammers, if I happen to be logged in, I flag them, but I don’t make it a point to sign in to do it. I don’t know if more flaggers makes for a better chance of getting rid of them or not.

    Of course John knows Elly’s night course are a means of escape. He uses his job the same way. Thus the reason he is smiling. It looks like it’s all said in good fun, But Elly will be the typical woman and throw it out of proportion. I love the last frame, looks like Lizzie got a hold of Michael by his hair, lol. little siblings are sooooo much fun.

    The spam is gone, so flagging works

    I don’t think it was said in “good fun.” And I agree if it were Elly making a dirty comment at John, she would be the b–tch of the day.

    Flagging may work, but flogging would work better.
