Pluggers by Rick McKee for August 29, 2018

Garfield can so relate.

We call that “the organ recital.”

My brother likes to say, “Hey, you look like a million bucks—all green and wrinkly!”

We need a ‘like’ button for comics.

I had a habit of saying “how you doing”? My wife’s grandfather would have for an hour telling about how poorly he felt.

It’s not clear what terrifies pluggers more: emotional intimacy or any reminder of their own mortality.

My mind says come on kid and my body says listen stupid!

I live in a 55+ neighborhood. I get those anatomy lessons almost daily. I’ve learned so much that I really didn’t want to know.

I almost never discuss my physical ailments when greeting other survivors of the 20th century. It’s really none of their business. I wish they felt the same way.
