The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 11, 2021

…..kind of like Gene Kelly.

Brutus’ little rain is an hurricane.

Who are you kidding, How do you dodge between them, unless you choose and pick the drops you go between.

No one since Noah has had as much rain in is life as Brutus.

Brutus tries to do the same thing but the drops he’s dodging are the size of camping coolers.

I don’t “dodge!!” I just get a YUGE “brolly,” keep calm and carry on!!!

/SHMIRK/

Brutus’ raindrops are the size of dodge balls.

Uncle Ted waxes philosophical….

Finding a friend with an umbrella eases the storm.

I thought you had to turn invisible to dodge the raindrops. At least that’s what my Uncle Martin always told me. ;-)

maybe bring a magic water repelling umbrella next time, that outta help. :D

just get katherine ross to ride on your bike as they play ♩raindrops keep fallin’ on my head…

Why ask why?

That’s not true for each and every life. For deep sea fish and squid living more than a mile below sea level, they can go their whole lives with no raindrops falling on them.

You think it always happens to you, until you start paying attention to other people. Everyone has good and bad days. The one thing I’ve learned, is not to take yourself too seriously. And what you might be stressing over, might not be a big deal.

Zen rain walking. Walk between the drops

You just keep looking up and keep the FAITH. DON’T DODGE – DEAL WITH EM. CALLED MATURITY.

Well Uncle Ted, when you put it that way…it might help?

Good advice as usual from uncle Ted. But I’m sure his troubles don’t rival those of a born loser. For starters he doesn’t have Brutus’s boss and sweet beloved mother-in law!

Yeah Brutus, you are definitely not alone. We can all definitely identify with your plight or aspects of it at least. However, you do seem to have a disproportionate amount of problems compared to the rest of us. I would suggest having an umbrella handy……

I wonder why Brutus and I seem to come to the top of the list more than anyone else?

When you’re the born loser, that comes with territory.

If it wasn’t for bad luck, Brutus would have no luck atall

Unfortunately, Brutus does not have Uncle Ned’s agility.

The engine is my 12 year old car just blew up. Guess I didn’t dodge hard enough.

Some can be avoided. Occasionally the number of hits can be lessened. In the past I have seen Brutus use umbrellas, wear rain coats, coats, hats, etc. Brutus has an uncle using his experience and avoiding wearing himself out unnecessarily.
