Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for September 26, 2018

Yep, that 1/2 pound makes a big difference.

It sure does. Look at that smile!

So much easier than “Does my bum look big in this?”

Scott Hoch still choked, don’t take the so-called “gimmies” for granted.

Arlo, are you saying she was fat?

It sounded like an appeasement comment to me…..or a ‘sell-out’….He said whatever he knew his wife wanted to hear…..so he wouldn’t get flack for being honest.

Too easy! “Wow! Why are you wearing those old, baggy clothes?”

Although my wife and I are thin, I want to go back to the days when thinness was associated with poverty and plumpness indicated prosperity.

“I can’t tell with your clothes on”

And it’s Arlo with the save!

Yes. Every once in awhile there’s a softball it they can still be tricky. There could be a trappy permission to a shopping spree embedded in that question. :o)

That one’s a LOT easier to handle than, “Didn’t you notice my new haircut…??”

You mean you thought I have been obviously fat??

Arlo better hope Janis does not think her feet have become smaller. Women’s shoe shopping is the worst!

It took him 30 years, but Arlo knows the answers now.

if Janis has tight fitting clothes or loose/baggy clothes, she is one good looking woman to look at. Any man would love her no matter what she wears. Plus to keep the peace better say the right things, otherwise your in the doghouse for sure.

Escaped and perjury trap

Why, no, that panel doesn’t make you look fat.

He got off easy on this one. An overly exuberant answer will usually invite a retort. In this case, as mentioned earlier, “so you think I was fat before?” He should’ve used the ole standard, “yes, dear”. It’s safer.

Honey you sure look thinner. How about we snuggle?

And she’s always looking great.
