well played, Leslie

This feels like a SEINFELD-esque “Jerk Store” moment.

i know i prefer the cat hairs to Gunther’s short curlies!

Gunther always seemed like the kind who would clean up after himself. As in what hair left laying around in the bathroom.

Ohhhh, yes he’s got short curly hair….

Les has Gunth by the short ‘n’ curlies!

Each time I run the robot vacuum, it picks up enough cat fur to build another cat.

So Gunther doesn’t like getting outsmarted by Les. BTW – Gunther could leave a large towel over the chair when he’s not sitting in it.

Reminds me of that old one about two hippie girls standing on the corner. One asks the other, “You ever been picked up by the fuzz?”

And the other one replies, “No, but it sure must hurt a lot…”

I think a better retort from Les would have been “You’ll think of it next time you’re shedding in the shower….”

Puuuuunk!

Time to move out?

Punk is shedding hair and Gunther’s hair does what? Gunther must be clipping his curls?

Pease porridge hot,

Pease porridge cold,

Hair on the toilet bowl,

Nine days old…

It’s Sunday! Where’s that Shannon kid?

Just take care of it. This doesn’t have to be Neil Simon.

Cat got Gunther’s tongue.

By June, he will have shaved that cat.

A classic example of ‘wit of the staircase’.

In panel #1 Punk’s like…“You talkin’ to me?”

Insert comeback here.

Cats shed. Who knew?

Kitteh…!!

The solution, Gunny?

Leave your “curly hairs” all over Les’ chair when he’s at work.

And his dinner.

But remember: (he’skeepingquietaboutBetsstayingthere,somaybenot.Andeventhoughhe’sshownredeemingqualitieslately,I_STILL_don’tlikehim). ;-)

Get a lint roller, aka cat hair roller.

They need to invest in a Shark Pet-Pro vacuum.

Les gave the perfect answer. Proof that having a cat makes you smarter! Poor Gunther really didn’t expect it. Bit he kinda deserves it. Gunther shouldn’t have interrupted a perfect, adorable cat-human moment.

Well punk doesn’t pay rent… Oh wait, neither do we…

Been there; done (rats! I forgot what I was going to say!)

reverting to the classic “fill in your own dialog” approach to cartooning. :-/

“… and those curlies AREN’T from anyone’s head. Gross!”

These guys are irrelevant. Show Nancy! In the bath already!

Les could be considerate, and, run a lint roller once in a while over Gunther’s chair. And, Gunther should realize find cat hairs on furniture is teh consquence of having a long haired Kitten.

Gunther is such a whiney little wuss, where did he get the pink ladies pullover? From Irma? LOL! Les and Punk are my favorite characters!!!

Is Les saying it’ll take Gunther three whole months to get down that staircase?

Hilarity ensues.

Short & curlies?

Maybe it’s time for a bean bag chair upgrade

What do you expect? It’s a cat!

Great comeback Les.

No comment!

Yuck

Just repainted a wall to a dark green color, I’m amazed at the cat hair I see on it.

Perhaps a witty remark about how you pay rent but the cat doesn’t?

Felix the cat, and Oscar the wiener .

cat hairs vs pube hair. no brainer. clean it up gunther eww

Today’s strip was just purr-fect!

And . . . . Gunther is angry again. What a surprise. His face will soon have a permanent scowl on it.

But it’s black, Leslie!

What happened Gunther? Cat get your tongue?

If Gunther was around a half century ago, he could have made a great self-righteous, pontificating hippie. See the Elly character in For Better Or For Worse for details on character development……

Oh yeah, well you may be ugly, but I’m drunk. And in the morning, oh wait. Hold on. Let me double check my “Winston Churchill Witty Retort Manual” here.

Monday: “The Letter” … =:-O

Cat hair is a badge of honor Gunth. You are beginning to make me like Les a whole lot more than you.

quick answer? ’that’s what vacuum cleaners are for’

This is my third comment.

.

You can’t see the other two.

Truth is truth. But Gunther cooks better than Punk does.

Gunther is at a loss to respond “in kind” to Leslie’s Knox’s taunt.

Best just to brush off the chair and sit and stew, Gunny. When June or a thought comes, whichever is first, then put down the smug nogoodnik….

I always think of the perfect retort but only after I don’t need it.

Les looks so zen

This is so me!! I sometimes wish I could have a little earwig that tells me how to give a good come back :)
