Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for April 07, 2023

What’s in the bag? Manure?

Another 3 bags? Looks like at least two in this trip but Janis’ comment could mean there was a third.

Did they rent a car because they were hauling smelly manure? Why not a pickup?

The implication is that Janice rented a car so that she didn’t have to load the cow poop into her personal vehicle. I can’t imagine anyone doing that in real life, but…. Anyway, all you would have to do is throw one of those dollar store plastic drop cloths into the trunk, load it up, and leave it open for the rest of the day to air out any remain scent.

That’s why I get my manure on Amazon.

Once again the husband is taking crap from his wife :(

Would the person Janis is buying the cow poop from be considered an “entre-manure”?

If they’re getting six huge bags of manure… just how big is their garden? Is there like a “coverage” recommendation per bag?

Does Janis realize how expensive that manure is going to be?

$6 a bag plus $200 cleaning fee when they return the car.

We had a loaner from the car dealership while they fixed our hail damage. Since there were supply issues (this was even before the plague year), we had it for weeks. Unfortunately it was a small sedan and we were used to a small SUV which was both higher off the ground and held more stuff, so we were very happy to get our own back.

“Pine straw”—never heard of it. So they collect fallen pine needles and sell ’em!

“Bull”-in-a-bag.

Read your rental contract. Most will tell you excessive mess accumulates excessive clean up fee.

WTF is ‘pine straw’?

I see. They don’t want to put composted cow poop in their own car.

Why do they have a rental car?

Cow dung!

It would be cheaper to rent a small trailer to haul behind your own car.

Bat guano is better.

Could she not fill up the back seat and passenger seat too?

At least they didn’t spend $60k on one of those all-hat-and-no-cattle lifted “trucks” with less usable cargo space than a Pinto hatchback. But I guess some people need them to display their Punisher, Blue Lives and Molon Labe stickers.

Everybody! Wait! You’re missing something. Why the rental car?

Did everyone miss that they are using a rental car? That way they don’t have the stink in their own car.

I’ve been a longtime fan of this strip but find today’s strip to be the funniest / wittiest one in several months.

I like the idea of getting a rental car instead of messing/stinking up your own.

Didn’t the hailstorm from the previous day damage the windshield and roof of their car? I assumed that’s why they have a rental…
