Oh, too perfect. I wonder if he’s a bass now, too?

LMAO! A hair on his very chest. His testosterone level must have jumped up 50 points.

Methinks he has a bigger surprise in store.

I think a real man could have told her off a little more suavely. wndrwrthg, until he can do it with a little more maturity, he won’t be growing the other signs of manhood.

what would Ray C have said? I’m interested.

nisedc says: “what would Ray C have said? I’m interested.” I would’ve said, Get yer tongue outta my mouth, ‘cause I’m kissin’ you goodbye.” Woops, that doesn’t work over the phone. How about: “I liked you better before I knew you so well”? Unfortunately, I don’t know the history of their relationship, nisedc, other than what I saw last week, so it’s hard to say. I’m no prude, but no matter what she had done, I would try to be more grownup than he was. Any 8-year-old could’ve said what he said. I think her reaction to that would be, “What a childish jerk! I’m glad to be rid of him.” I would want her to hang up thinking maybe her behavior cost her something worthwhile. The decision to break it off is what made him a man, not the way he chose to do it. Not that any of us would want to be guilty of over-analyzing a comic strip. ;-) [Country song titles from http://www.anvari.org/fun/Misc/BestCountrySong_Titles.html]

Ray C, she used to date Lucas before Mona got to him (literally). Then, when things looked as though they could work out between Mona and Lucas, Tiffany started dating him again and they moved in together. During that time, she was constantly belittling him, and finally left him for a guy wearing a rolex she’d known for about two minutes. So yeah, I’d say he was subtle enough.

Thanks, RayC. I just wondered. having broken up with people and been broken up with both classily and not-classily (mostly not), I always wonder what other people do. I liked the “get yer tongue outta my mouth.” Funny is always best.
