The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for October 19, 2021

You could return back to the restaurant for dinner.

And maybe they were in at 6 AM slowcooking that pot roast. Should be ready about now.

I’ll take mine – extra rare, please!!

/SHMIRK/

How many fast-food restaurants did you drive by on your way there, Brutus? Fast-food may not necessarily be great, but it’s usually prepared quickly. Could be why it’s called fast-food. Or order a salad and be hungry again in an hour. It shouldn’t take long to prepare some rabbit food for you.

Man, what a dope! Is ANYBODY really that stupid??

We slow cook-ed it for six hours five days ago. How do you feel about leftovers?

slow cooking is a perfect match for brutus…

I wouldn’t wanna wait that long for lunch either. now if it were precooked that might be a different story and maybe an option to pick. :D

What ever happened to Wasteral Gravesite?

“Homestyle” may not mean the same thing to Brutus. Have you tasted Gladys’ pot roast???

Remember the one hour photo mat? Brutus could drop off 6 rolls and when they were done, his pot roast would be ready!

A great opportunity for a long lunch break, Brutus!

How can Brutus afford to eat lunch at a diner every day? The boss is a famous penny-pincher. I think he and Scrooge are brothers.

Brutus is always mindful of being back to work on time!

Brutus – order it today for tomorrow’s lunch. Think ahead lad. Look Sharp…Feel Sharp…Be Sharp! (Gillette Razor ad of 1950’s – I still remember it)

Unfortunately, Brutus has a bad habit of taking what people say too literally.

In the first place, I would think home style would be a major turn off for Brutus.

reminds me a a sad situation. A restaurant in L.A., “Chili my Soul”, served 30 different kinds of chili. They were slow cooked for 48 hours prior to being served. Best chili ever! It went out of business when the chili loving owner died suddenly.

Been there, done that. Had dinner at midnight.

Brutus is a tiny bit unclear on concept here.

Maybe since you are such a good customer, they can microwave it. Actually, it’s worth the wait I’m sure. Sounds good though; ah, just order it and see what happens. You just might be surprised…..

Then come back tomorrow for Peking Duck.

Time for a Golden Oldie:

Actor: “Why did you leave my play during intermission?”

Friend: “Because the program said, Act Two — Three Years Later, and I couldn’t wait.”
