Aw, he’s such a romantic

You’ve hurt ’im, Betty.

Male ego’s are pathetic!

ALL EGO’S ARE

Betty is ribbing Bub.

Mmmm. Ribs.

Most of the time ribs taste like “rub”, not meat.

Too bad he only got one, Jr. ate the rest while Bub was complaining.

This strip reminds me of a time I was visiting a friend from a family on the other side of the tracks. We were hanging out, and he said “Hey, I’m hungry, let’s see what my aunt cooked up.” We went in the kitchen and a pot was on the stove, with what looked like dried-up meat in it. I offered to take him out for lunch, but he insisted. Anyway, I was treated to the most delicious ribs I had ever had. So much for jumping to conclusions.

Ok, what’s going on? “Glurk” doesn’t sound good to me.

It’s a sad day for a man when his wife barbecues better than he does.

I don’t think Junior shares his father’s ambivalence.
