She has those plaid shorts in her hands in the last panel. At first, I thought her knitting had just changed colors. Then I saw her knitting in her lap. Obviously, she was sitting on the shorts while Earl was looking. Makes her final statement make more sense.
Once you reach A Certain Age, you’re freed from any pretense of ever being cool, and you can joyfully embrace your inner dork. It’s quite liberating, actually.

Nobody wants to see you in shorts Earl.

Earl doesn’t care…he doesn’t have to look at himself.

This is actually one time I’m with Opal. That’s a first for me.
Get some Cotton Dockers shorts. They are the shorts of summer.

Yeah, I could visualize Dangerfield wearing them.

He must read his own comic Earlwash, then he’d see himself. Also now I know about the inner dork. Funny! I wear high waters now with no shame.
