The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 26, 2022

Criminal surprise

And you will see tomorrow’s surprise!

She’ll be surprised when he refuses to pay it.

And the secret ingredient is salmonella.

It’s only Mac and Cheese. That’s the surprise.

We rarely go to restaurants because we are stunned by the prices. Plus the cost of gasoline to get there. Social Security is such a misnomer. Luckily we bought bonds and stocks in our 401Ks and……no, wait……..never mind…………

So there is inflation in the Born Loser universe? But not to worry, it will be “transitory”

It now costs 44 cents to put your 2 cents on a penny postcard.

Wait till you see the tip

The surprise is that the Board of Health didn’t condemn it.

Wait until you taste what looks like beef.

Not to mention the tip!

I’ve been getting surprise everything lately. Diesel, insurance, t-shirts and yesterday the meter reader, who is a really nice guy, says to me I’m reading your meter right and I’m checking everyone’s numbers twice this month. It’s been a really hot month and the billing cycle is 35 days this time and the hot bucks discount has gone away. What all that meant is: SURPRISE your power bill will be double this month! Budget meetings are just to discuss what we can’t have anymore. LGB.

Brutus, I always check the price before ordering. Now, I see why you considered to be a loser.

It’s better than the “Spring Surprise” in the Crunchy Frog candy assortment.

S U R P R I S E !

hope it’s more correct then the meal you gave him… or is that the surprise.

The waitress couldn’t wait to say that.

“Surprise Casserole” wait for it Brutus – the upset/ gas rolling comes an hour later. Surprise!

I suspect “Putin’s Price Hike” will be affecting the casserole’s cost.

“It’s our ‘Heart Healthy’ meal; If your heart can take it when you see the bill, you’re healthy!” ッ

Brutus Thornapple, the only guy I know who doesn’t look at the menu first and then order.

Thats a surprise I never like. Enjoy it going down Brutus……..

Only Brutus keeps going to the same diner with the same awful food. Maybe it costs more today because they had to buy a new can opener.

Probably have to pay on the installment plan.

Coming on the heels of COVID, which also caused us to spend more, now we have inflation. However, if you have even a few dollars to spare, please think about donating to a food bank.

Just like the surprise fill-up at the gas station!

if you have any kind of smarts at all you learn pretty early in life not to order anything that has “surprise” in its name…

SURPRISE!

Maybe Hamburger Helper. Remember the jingle: Hamburger Helper, when you need a helping hand.
