Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for August 17, 2021

You can take the waitress out of the restaurant…

I think the waitress likes you Arlo, Give her your best line.

“I’ll have the number……..”

She’s *serving, Arlo. Order anything you want ; )

Janis. you know this one isn’t any good for a money tip.(Oh, and the word is “Hon” not “Handsome”.)

I’ll have what he’s having

I bet he can’t wait to see the dessert menu.

ARLO! She gives you an opening like that, and you come back with a line that makes her seem dull, run-of-the mill old hat!?

Order a salmon taco

Alas. This only happens in the comics. (Or is it just me?)

For once!

Oh she knows what he wants …

Janis is missing those big tips and the attention she was getting waiting tables.

Adam and Eve on a raft, wreck them.

You darling, you :-)

OOOOooowwww role playing.

OOO, role playing! what time do you off, sugar?!

Ah yes the usual…nice and slow!

Hey! It worked on the coast.

I think she’ll get a big tip out of this sucker! 8^ )

methinks Janis was adept at getting tips

With a side order of sass (sass, you perverts! ☺)…

Oooh, waitress roll-playing!

My advise – let the fantasy play out.

The special of the house…

and so nice it is……

Why isn’t Arlo smiling in the last panel?

Switch up pitch to her, “I’ll have eggs toast, and you,honey!” See the reaction.

No wonder she got such big tips.

Note that Arlo says “… the unusual”. (I missed it at first; I feel that the word is a bit too compressed for an important punch line.)

Panel 2:“Tine” ? A fork reference ?

And darned glad to get it!

I belive the whoopie lamp is lit.

Or the Cher’s Sprecial
