The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for October 30, 2021

Score one for Brutus.

Being a vampire her image is not even reflected.

The reflection of Mother Gargoyle does not cringe!! The mirror itself, cracks and shatters into a thousand pieces!!

/SHMIRK/

Good one Brutus, but you’ll pay for it.

Watch your back…

I agree with Brutus. Her face is never shown but you can tell what her face looks by looking at her nose.

When Grammie speaks she uses up so much hot air that her hand turns white?

If she had a reflection, even she would be scared of it.

She once tried to enter an Ugly Contest. They told her “Sorry—amateurs only!”

“If my dog had a face like that, I’d shave its butt and make it walk backwards.”

keep this up and she might make you go crack instead of cringe. :D

Gargoyle: “Mirror mirror on the wall who’s the fairest of them all?” Mirror: “Don’t ask questions if you don’t know the answer. It could come back and bite you!”I’m surprised Mother G let’s Brutus stand behind her like that!

He WILL pay for that remark but it will have been worth it. Well said my friend; well said. Happy Halloween……

There’s a “yo mama” joke in there.

Her portraits hang themselves.

The government’s thinking about moving Halloween to her birthday.

She turned Medusa to stone.

When she plays Mortal Kombat, Scorpion tells her to “Stay over there!”

And finally, when she looks in the mirror, it says “Viewer discretion is advised…”

For you who do celebrate HALLOWWEEN – be safe and enjoy and mind your manners.

“Double, double, toil and trouble”….don’t let her near that cauldron on the stove.

Poor Mother G. Even when she is being nice, she still gets slammed.

Brutus is thinking that Mother Gargle wears her costume year round…

Ohhhh, burn! Brutus appears to be getting braver as he ages. Or, maybe his synapses aren’t firing as well as they should, and he can’t help saying things that will get him into a lot of trouble! Happy Halloween, everyone!

Brutus should really know better than to mess with a witch on Halloween.

“Fighting, they say, is a form of loving, and I guessed we’ve loved you as much as we can without actually beating your brains in.”

— Hawkeye (Alan Alda) to Margaret (Loretta Swit), in an early episode of M*A*S*H, in a goodbye speech following the announcement that she is transferring out of the unit.

Don’t worry, Mother Gargle will get her own zingers in as the day goes on. I honestly think they both enjoy the ongoing sparring contest, and one day, when she passes on, he’ll miss her (of course, I realize that applies to the real world; in their comic strip universe, they’ll go on forever).

I feel sorry for the mirror!

Good one Brutus.

She never met a mirror she couldn’t shatter with a look.

Surprised the Snakes in her hair didn’t bite Brutus.

It’s her day.
