Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for September 16, 2012

More like a mute button, methinks. EYEROLL

I think the Delete button doesn’t get used anywhere near as often as it should be!

Yes there it is the ever-appearing apron….and the nagging. I suppose Dad is hiding at the table to keep his sanity.

As my husband would say, you can’t unring a bell! I sometimes wish that humans had a delete key…More people put their feet into their mouths a lot faster these days. Blah, blah, blah has taken on a whole new meaning. lol

I was with Mom right up until she merged into crazy-mode. Cathy should learn Mr. Spock’s Vulcan neck pinch. Or install an off switch on the back of her neck.

mollie05 I think Dad is safely at home. Out in public with the Mrs. would be asking for more trouble than the quiet little man can take on.

janinabarnes from overnight, my mom is right there with you. Used to drive her mad. Now he shops at LLBean and Lands’ End for certain clothes. It took a lot of fine-tuning to get there though. As for me and Aaron, Levis and Dockers take almost no effort at all. I won’t even mention women’s Size 0. (I think Aaron and lightenup talked about that a long while ago.)

Also Cathy’s mom, I use a text editor to put my thoughts down first, fix ovbious tpyos, and then copy/paste here. Makes me look less like a fool.

Morning Susan actually for Aaron, ‘sleeping late on Sunday’ means he can come home from working overnight Saturday, cliimb into bed around 7:30 or 8:00, and sleep until about 3:00. Most days are that way. The tricky bit is how to sleep on his Friday night off and function right.

I’ve seen that spiel before on Foxtrot, but it was about the “Undo” button, which is more to the point.

And, once again, we’re reminded from where Cathy gets her looniness. [Eye-roll]

@BillyI love the idea of “Mr. Spock’s Vulcan neck pinch” … I’d LOVE to see that in this comic. Also, was your “tpyo” intentional, or not?

Happy Sunday, all.

I could use a delete button. I don’t often know how to speak to people and sometimes I say something out loud that I shouldn’t have.

rgcviper first I’ll make BIlly stop messing with your head. People who say “I have no idea what you’re talking about” always do. Second, I agree that Spock’s Vulcan neck pinch would be soooo cool. I can picture Cathy’s mom going “Urp” and then passing out on the floor. :-D

So you know we thought of you today.

Hi Cathyites!!Happy Holidays Susan!!I’m all for the “delete” button — for paper, screen, or verbal communication. “Backspace” would be even better. It gives you time to open mouth/change feet.

I could definitely use a delete or undo button! But then again, I guess none of us would get smarter or learn from our mistakes then, would we?Hello to everyone!! I’m running so late today and I’m tired, so I hope this is okay with you all! Hope everyone had a nice Sunday and is resting up for Monday!

Having moved on from when this strip was created, people have got into the habit of writing without thinking but then just hit ‘send’ or liberate their words into the twittersphere without revision. Politicians are particularly good at this.
