Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 14, 2020

The old tickle game. I used to play that with my kids at a certain age. Looks like out favorite coupe are regressing. 8^ )

Not quite as much fun as “Naked Lupin”, but not bad ; )

It’s nice to see that after all of these years Arlo still tickles her fancy.

She could have hid longer if she covered head, But not to much longer.

That third panel is certainly a thing,

Do you folks still wear red flannel over there? (Asks a Brit)

Arlo would be even happier if she bought sheets that matched her skin color, and blended in

Forget that, Arlo, just “get under the covers”…;)

@Sephten: The only reason for pyjamas is in case of fire. By the way, the P word does not pass GoComics spell checker.

Janis, are you happy? Perturbed? Let me guess, “Yes”, right?

Compliments to the colorist for paying attention. This strip must seem odd in a black-and-white newspaper.

Flannel sheets are “Da Bomb” in cold winter areas.

Cute!

Who said that? Show yourself!

Combine flannel PJs with flannel sheets and it is a struggle to turn over.

I love her panic at ‘Oh God he’s gone senile’ shifting to "oh you goof!’ That’s love.

My wife is not ticklish.

Reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Things_Not_Seen , great story

Thats what she thinks. Arlo, the rascal.

This is adorable!

Mrs. Baker and I still enjoy tickle fights, but she said I’m not allowed to share that information with you.

Love her laugh.

Come on Arlo, you can do a better job of finding her than that.

Tickles other stuff too.

Either JJ colored the strip himself, or major kudos are due to the colorist. It would have been quite easy for colorist to be in too much of a hurry to read the text, and have the PJs and sheets be of different hues.

panel three made my day

We have a plastic zip bag of change. I thought of turning it in. Problem is our on few trips to stores for food and prescriptions we pay self ring up and pay with credit card and we are mailing the few deposits we have to the bank with a SASE for the receipt to be returned to us. Turning in the change anyway would involved transactions face to face with people – who we are trying to avoid to stay healthy. (Though we probably will get stuck in late January or early February going to the bank to withdraw money from IRA to pay real estate taxes.)

This is adorable.

Great laugh, let it out Janis, it does the soul good!

That is so cool. I love their relationship.
