Drabble by Kevin Fagan for October 03, 2021

For two panels, we get to see what Ralph would have looked like as a young man…

Don’t want to weigh all that heavy air

Mine remembers the numbers, anyway how loose my watch is on my arm is an easier check.

Being Ralph Norman’s father, and knowing how weird the son can be, for a moment he got me thinking he was trying not to weigh the air inside him. Considering that even June believed that… :D

I often wondered about all those usable scales in thrift stores. Now that I’m old and overweight and on my way to donate my scale to the nearest thrift, I’ve stopped wondering.

Done there, been that.

Why did he get off the scale, it was still spinning around…

The Bathroom Scale: The best of machines and the worst of machines……

Hilarious!

A talking scale that screams “ouch, get off me” would make a great gag gift…..

I was thinking he might benefit from a talking scale too, but it’d probably just insult him.

That should be a sign you have a problem.

Scales have numbers on them? I thought they were a device to see if you could stand with your feet that close together without falling over. Once your balance doesn’t work any more you need to go to a nursing home.

And we have a winner in todays Truth Be Told contest.

I just did that yesterday! Didn’t work for me either Ralph!

Turn sideways and look down and right or left.

Dude, lock the door. Never know what kind of monster that might come in….
