The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for March 09, 2023

Leftovers that should have been thrown out last Thursday.

I wonder just how far Brutus could throw the throwback special ?

Doesn’t it feel like home?

What he didn’t say was ‘from last year’.

throwup, throwback – poayto, potahto

If it’s a pasta or tomato based lunch, I’ll take it. Reheated is best

It is re-hash!

I would not eat in that restaurant.

You could take dog food, give it a fancy French sounding name and the YUPPIES would buy it and say it was great.

That place should be named “The Throwback Diner” because that’s the safest thing to do with the slop they serve.

Which was Wed’s Blue Plate special leftover from Tuesday.

Leftovers is why I’m here! We still have Christmas turkey at my house.

Some leftovers improve, like most pasta dishes.

Leftovers are the best, Brutus, and often with a reduced price. Go for it.

An interesting choice of words for leftovers.

throwback doesn’t mean it should’ve just been left in the garbage… :p

Followed by Ptomaine Friday.

Or as we called it in college, mystery meat

Who knew that short-order cooks were such clever marketers?

Good old reliable left overs!

Same as what he will have for dinner at home. Actually he’s the only guy that has leftovers every day of the week for dinner at home….

Throwback or throw up specials? I fear for our hero because I’m pretty sure I’ve eaten at that place…

It’s kind of funny that the term “throw-back” also has a slang meaning, to eat with gusto… ☺

I’ve got a feeling that all of their Specials are leftovers…

Brutus will eat it. He’s a good boy. We never see any of his family except Uncle Ted?

Well Brutus you have to ask yourself, do I feel lucky, well do you.

It’s also called that because the customer threw it back.

Reminds me of our college dorm food fight, lots of throw back.

They threw it in the dumpster and the raccoons threw it back.

Well Brutus, I gotta say if you haven’t had them before, they’re not leftovers…

Is lunch served twice a day, serving leftovers?…

Brutus, if the special is a daily, then lunch and dinner are the same, but is dinner a lunch leftover, that is the question.

Brutus, ya pays your nickel, ya take your chance…

Brutus, you’re the only one there, does that tell you something? …

I’ll be rightover.

diner leftovers should definitely be left alone…
