Eating on rug can cause indigestion.

so much for Earl saying he’ll be quiet during the ladies’ book club

He’s thinking about you Opal

You should just swap your “book” club for “modern theater” and wait for the applause.

The elephant speaks!

Good one, Earl is still there. Probably a topic of conversation!

I’ve never been to a women’s book club meeting, but I thought the whole point was to drink wine.

A Dagwood sandwich or one of those little party tray sandwiches, Earl?

They are all OLD women, if they were 20 years younger and ALL on menopause. Earl would be out of there in seconds.

Just don’t let him show you his trunk.

Did they even read the book? They’re comments are generic.

Just put some bacon on the stove and he’ll get moving.

oh the irony

Gonna choke eating a sandwich laying down… mind the ladies can jump on him if they need to do that heimlicher thing.

Where’s the wine? There’s nothing more boring than a slow read! UGH

If he doesn’t stay quiet, they are likely to hit him with a book club . :)

The women should just use Earl as a footrest.

Just roll him onto the Roomba and let it take him away!

Props to Earl for having the nerve to ask, since he very likely knows what the response will be.

Girls, novels tend to do that till the 3/4 point, with Stephen King an exception.

Come on there are three of you, at least one could do something productive. (Channeling my Father In Law’s mindset).

Sounds like none of them have read the book!

You don’t want to eat laying down.

I told you this would happen!

“You could CHOKE to death eating like that……. What kind of sandwich would you like..?”-Opal

Earl you need to roll over then get you a sandwich.

Let’s see what happens when Earl has to go to the bathroom.

“… so to speak.”

You need to train your inner elephant, Earl.
