Isn’t Lois cute! So pleased with her little joke. Why doesn’t Arnold get it?

The clue for 14-down on Arnie’s crossword puzzle was “plumber’s helper”.

Lois’ humor has plunged to even lower depths. But I still want to hear the joke.

I hope Arnie still has his eyes after removing that plunger.

“But Arnie, dear. Your face was made for plunging.”

How goes it, MUDD?

I don’t want to know here that plunger has been, ewww!

I do hope that the plunger is staying in place due to the suction of the cup and not because it was recently used as intended. I bet Arnie hopes the same thing.

You’ve plunged to an all new low.

Darn… I had something to say…

But I dozed off and plumb forgot.

 

Arnie actually looks to me like he enjoys Lois’ little jokes….

in fact, I’m thinking that’s not a used plunger….

it’s her special little joke plunger, that he bought her for her birthday….

to go with her joke rolling pin, and her rubber chicken.

 

When he says “not another plunger joke!”

I think he means “I can’t believe you thought of another one!”

It’s a compliment.

 

I’m pretty sure…. cos it’s like when people say to me,

“Oh Susan, not another pun!”

It means they like them…. right?

Um….er…. … right?

Love her expression.

Good morning Mudd.

“Look at me! I’m a unicorn!!” (And also possibly soon extinct.)

Lois seems inordinately pleased with herself. Arnie, not so much.

It was Arnold’s own fault. He told her his head was feeling a bit stuffy…

BTW, I’m not getting the physics of how his glasses escaped…

My queue still won’t load.

It did a couple of time yesterday, but after several attempts this morning, nothing.

Good morning Mudd.

happy sunday, Y’all
