Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 20, 2024

Sometimes, only elementary school insults will do.

she needs a refill of curses again

Did he clog up the toilet again?

And thus Melvin was forever known as Big Poop.

So … is she Mrs. Big Poopy Butt Man?

How our scrums and planning meetings ends

Melanie’s “Swear Jar” is bankrupt.

Ooooh. The gloves are off.

Effective communication is about the exchange of ideas, and I think she exchanged hers just fine.

Melvin really wishes that when Melanie gets mad at her husband she would take it out on him instead of walking five blocks and bursting into his house to take it out on him.

Oh dear, what did Ed do now.

Well, now! I think she’s upset with somebody.

Odd behavior, even for Ballard street.

See what happens when you call your spouse ‘Poopsy’ and ask them to get you a beer?

Good morning Balladeers!

Translation: “You left the seat up again!”

It Depends.

re: “Ballard Street has traditionally been a ‘politics-free’ zone.”

Sorry, P51. You’re correct. I deleted the comment.

Well, that was fast. The discussion had barely started!

Melanie’s either mightily cheesed off or she’s appealing to her hubby to transform into the world’s least likely superhero…

Big Poopy Butt Man!

Big Saggy Bottom Woman loses here temper!

When you’re down to those expressions the only thing left in your arsenal.. is the rolling pin.

I knew my second wife had reached that point when she called me “boring”. I have many undesirable qualities but no one has ever seriously considered me boring. :)

Clearly not something she’s familiar with.

Oh my, I first thought it was a ‘toon of Biden. Such language!

I think the last time she said something similar to that, she was 4…what goes around, comes around! Lol!

What about cotton headed ninny muggins?

Harold does deserve it, being the stupid head that he is.

This is the result of too many Police Squad movies. :)

Very concise description!

At least Melanie didn’t refer to him as a “bubble-headed booby.”

our buddy knows he’s really in trouble when melanie starts using the advanced vocabulary words… ☺

Melanie didn’t have far to go to reach this point.
