B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for April 19, 2021

I never know how to answer those rhetorical questions.

Not in certain parts of Europe. They take that question literally there, and they will tell you in great detail about every little ache, pain, and problem they’re currently having!

And this culture was why I almost didn’t start dating again.

I usually say, horrible and leave it at that!! If the person want’s to hear all about it, they will stick around! Most don’t and it’s fine by me!!

/SNARK/

But how do you really feel?

Someone asked me “Hi, how do you do?”

I told him I sneak into places sneakily and picks up the picanic baskets and then sneakily sneak away outta there. That’s how I do it.

Average

Middle frame, I’m sure I dated that one…..it was definitely B.C.

She’s like a spring fever blister.

She feels great, I guess.

Just to see that traumatized look in the third panel…

There’s some people you have to avoid asking questions of any kind….

My answer…could be better, has been worse…

Someone needs a hobby.

I learned if you get more than 5 one word answers from a girl you meet at a party, move on.

I’ve never understood why people ask if they don’t want to know.

A friend who was a nurse at a retirement home warned me never to ask that question there if I wanted to be home in time for dinner. She was right.

How are you doing?

Without!

Jane? Have we ever heard the Fat Broad’s name before?

I tried a bit of Aussie slang, didn’t work. I will make it more readable, ‘howareyagoingalright!’, origional.

I always feel awkward when I greet a passer-by with “Hi” and they ask “how are you”.

This may be a lucky guess, but she comes across as truly awful! :D

And that’s just her personality…….

How about “howdy”?

He was actually speaking to Grace.

My aunt, who was a very sweet woman, passed away at the age of 93 last year. When anyone asked how she was, she would say, "Oh, fair to middlin’. Every time. Another aunt would tell you about every ache and pain, until one day, I told her, “When people ask how you are, they don’t really want to know!”

Well BC, now you know how the snakes feel.

“How are you?”

“I don’t remember.”

I always answer that question with….. I feel more like I do now than I did before.

I’m alive. If that changes I’ll let you know.

If she is feeling so awful, why did she go to the party?

When I saw the second panel, I thought King Kong returned.

I don’t have time to listen so I won’t ask. I think I am going to become a Don’t ask and Don’t tell person.

Jane, Jane, Jane that butt bustle looks ridiculous on you.

jane is just showing off her new found dominance over the male species by being able to pronouce “AWFUL” and having her frenulum raised above her sublingual fold.

What happened to hi, hey & hello? Why pretend that you care how a stranger is doing? That greeting is simply a viral thing, like starting sentences with “so”, or saying “awesome” to everything, along with vocal fry & uptalk.
