The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for April 14, 2021

Make lemonade…..

At least the car is not yellow.

Be glad you have something on wheels.

At least it’s a lemon and not a kumquat!!!

/CHORTLE/

Considering it’s a comic, time to brush up your resume’ Gladys and get a job.

Gladys, don’t let it sour your outlook.

She can get a job and buy a better car.

This is a comic, Can’t you trade your lemon for a pumpkin?

She has a lemon for a car; he has a lemon for a wife.

Gladys, if you don’t like what you’re driving, YOU get a car and EARN enough money to get the car you want!

It smells fresh!

Pumpkin for a coach? So, like the Washington Nationals.

Forty years ago my wife bought her very first car after visiting three car dealers. The third dealer got her business because the salesman was smart enough to talk to her, not me. It was strange how the first two salesmen kept swinging the conversation over to me, looking past her as I tried to stand way back. She was polite with the first one and we quietly left, but the second one … oh boy! She gave him an earful!

you could make a really big cup of lemonade. :D

Yet, a car, you do have, along with a man who pays for it. And while there is no fairy Godmother, you do have a mother who will help you complain…..

Well, the pumpkin coach was just a one night thing. The car is available a lot longer, lemon or otherwise.

Then get a job and buy your own damn car!

What did Cinderella have for a cheerleader?

I got news for you Gladys, you are no Cinderella, you don’t have a fairy godmother and Brutus sure ain’t no prince, so what do you expect.

I guess you need a different fairy godmother, anything would an improvement over the mother you’ve got.

Lemon for a wife!

Get a job.

Hey Gladys, blame Veeblefester! If he paid more, you might have a better car.

Then again, Brutus could buy the most reliable car there is, and he would get a lemon.
