I came home from grade school and told my mother that our teacher had umpired the recess baseball game that day, “And when she signaled ’You’re out!’ her arm kept shaking.” I didn’t know (then) why Mom couldn’t stop laughing…
Arlo, this is no time to be a Joker. Don’t go outside to look at a Robin. Let Janis slide down the Batpole so both of you can enjoy the pleasures of the Batcave.
I’ve only heard bat wings, never bingo wings. Interesting. I don’t understand the bingo wings reference unless it means old ladies play bingo and they have this issue.
He would have done better to have taken a walk in a cow pasture. What would have stepped in there is nothing to what he stepped in when he admitted he’s noticed the flapdoodles.
When I was younger I called them KMart arms. That was where I usually saw them. I didn’t know they had the “batwings” name. I didn’t know they had a name other than upper arms. Live and learn!
Gah! I hate it when women complain about their looks to their spouse/boyfriend. Never discourage your husband from thinking you look good. He sees you through love’s eyes. Be grateful, be nice, say thank you, and make him happy.
If things keep going for a couple of years like they are now, there’s going to be an adolescent generation talking about how they got a glimpse of real chin “in the flesh”.

Janis is on a perpetual downer now. What happened to the cheerful, happy Janis?

And when she starts digging in the garden we know what she’s going to bury first.

Not as cute as “squirrel gliders”. There’s also “self-storing paraglide” or “back-up parachute” or “kite hangers”.
Aging can make you a one person improv show but not the time now for other anatomical changes. Save that for future quarantines.

Is it me – or is the strip becoming a bit sad? I don’t like how the two of them have been a bit too taken up with aging in the last few weeks.

He has visions of receiving her twin impressions, followed by a draining of his male essence…

Pretty sure it had nothing to do with anything relating to her arms.

I don’t think Arlo and Janis are on the same page (or subject). They are not referring to the same body part.

He could also just be happy for her that she gets to enjoy the nice weather.
