The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for October 24, 2022

Good for you, Brutus!!! You have got to think “outside” the box!!!

/SHMIRK/

And the bus driver probably gets paid more than the boss’s driver.

Sounds like a prime example of “one ups man ship” to me … Way to go Brutus !

The chief could buy that bus with pocket change. Can you?

he’s certainly like flashing his stuff he bought with his money… wouldn’t he be using his money as a fan or something to, ya know, really show off his money. Oh, maybe wear it as clothing. :D

Probably credit Youngman: “My uncle went to Vegas in a three thousand dollar car, and went home in a ninety thousand dollar bus.”

Your both humble bragging.

Brutus is ever the glass is half full man. He manages to take the vicissitudes of life and be an optimist.

Reminds me of the old LasVegas joke about arriving in a $30K (inflation) vehicle and leaving in a $400K vehicle.

Brutus an really put things into perspective..atta boy!

Good ole Brutus Thonrapple, the only guy I know who would brag about being forced to ride the bus everyday.

Yes, I’d say the chief likes to flaunt his wealth, especially when he displays bags of his money beside his desk for all the see.

Luxury sedan is more like 200k these days.

And he has a different one for each day of the week.

The day the Boss takes that Half Million Dollar Bus to work is the same day that you should sell the company stock and get your resume updated and to start looking for a new job….

Brutus must be related to Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced Bouquet) who lives in England…

And if you consider what the Transit Authority paid for it, it probably cost twice as much!

Does your bus have a wet bar?

I think Brutus has him beat. The fact that he doesn’t own it doesn’t change the fact.

we parked next to a porsche cayenne yesterday in the nearly empty garden center parking lot and i thought to myself, hmmm, somebody spent a whole bunch of money to own a really, really ugly car…

Reminds me of the Golden Oldie about the astronaut who bragged to his father about having orbited the Earth. “That’s nice,” said the father, “but I myself have made 55 trips around the sun.”
