The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for March 19, 2022

Anything the annoys Mother G., can’t be all bad

Mother Gargoyle is the “face” of madness!!

/SHMIRK/

The time of year when people who don’t follow college basketball suddenly care.

I can see where his wife gets her meanness from.

You mean March of stupidity.

Mommy G. can always go home to watch her favorite cauldron cooking shows. It would benefit both her and Brutus. Her, so she learn the proper way to baste something (someone?) in the oven and Brutus with some peace and quiet while he is watching the games.

hmmm, my bracket tells me that it’s time to go outside and do something useful…

Wonder how Mother Gargle gets around? broom? taxi? bus? Gladys? Surely she does not drive – that spiked hair would rip the interior.

“Hey you old biddy it’s my house and I don’t need your permission to watch tv. I pay the bills here.”

you mean, she’s gonna get even madder now? I guess the squeaky shoes really annoyed this time.

Mama Gargoyle’s usual sunny disposition is not helped by her bracket being busted on Day 1 like the rest of us. By his look I’m guessing Brutus picked St. Peter and Richmond. Or, being the Born Loser, he didn’t and he’s just used to failure.

Can never understand why people get into something that takes 3 hours to find an outcome, a horse race is over in less than 2 minutes.

Brutus is THE “Fan” in fanatic for March Madness…..

They could go outside and shoot some hoops together. They might last 2 minutes, but they still wouldn’t bond. I think Mama is lonely, which makes her a bit crabby, not the other way around. Where is Mr Mama? Yeah, he probably did run away. Never mind.

Here’s a suggestion: let’s just play ALL the games at the same time and let sports fans split-screen themselves to death. :)

Mr. Gargoyle is sitting on a lily pad happily catching flies with his tongue.

Not the same as the madness you bring year around.

Though I’ve playing hours and hours of basketball, I hate watching it on TV. Now, soccer, that’s a totally different matter, and I’ve also played hours of that game, too.

There’s basketball on? Who knew?

Brutus just tell Mother Gargle that you don’t complain at Halloween when she spends all her time flying around on her broom with her coven.

Remind her that now the birds not renovating surviving nests and houses are preparing to build new spring/summer/fall homes. Perhaps she can watch them.

For once, at least, it doesn’t seem like she’s insulting him directly. Anyway, he shouldn’t take her too seriously when it comes to sports — earlier strips indicated that she’s a little clueless on that subject.

I can’t remember if “Mother G” is Mother Godzilla or Mother Gargoyle. Which one is it?

I heard that out of the thousands of brackets that registered only 161 were still good. And the majority came from Jersey City and the surrounding area from St. Peters! LOL! ;o)
