The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for September 12, 2023

Also spracht the lady-witch who smell of sulfur.

And now I am imagining a poodle with Witchipoo’s haircut.

AAH, sweet Lady Gargle. always so pleasant

This cartoon does not pass the sniff test!

She must smell like lions, tigers and bears.

So many options here. My wife has a pug that snores like a chainsaw. I have a shepherd bulldog mix that is “big boned”. My mother in law has 3 little dogs that run in circles all day barking. I’ll be in the dog house if anyone needs me.

Mother Gargle made just one mistake. For a zinger that good she should have waited until Brutus was awake. She may repeat it when he wakes up, but he will have missed out on the spontaneity of the moment.

Hey Brutus, I have a question. From Monday, to Sunday, how long does it take to do one week of Born Loser? How many weeks in advance are they done?

Hey! Sleep is important, now.

Ew, ew!

Poor Brutus and Kewpie, not bothering anyone, dozing contentedly and there’s the harridan mocking his smell. This coming from a woman who appears to style her hair with a weed whacker and a leaf blower.

She must have a ugly snarling sewer rat as a pet.

wonder which one would be easier to clean then. :J

A great hilarious punchline today, Chip.

I wouldn’t be surprised since this is good enough to make it into some future paperback book.

Maybe the smell came with you, you old battle axe?

We had a saying when l was growing up, “He who smelled it dealt it”. I will assume that Mama Gargoyle cannot really talk about smelling. The entire line of Channel products probably wouldn’t help her. But what do I know….

She neglects to mention that she has a pet Cthulhu…

ᕦಠಠᕥ

I suppose with that eagle like nose she has she can smell just about any creature around. I wonder what type of pet she takes after.

“Good one ma, let’s wake Brutus and tell him” says Gladys…

Chip, why is Kewpie “dressed” like a Service Dog, is he one? Would that be for Brutus’ anxiety states?…

I would be honored to become more like my dog. Beagles don’t get that “doggy” smell, either, not even when they are all wet. My dog is always happy, calm, delighted to see everyone, will eat almost anything without a complaint, and will happily sleep anywhere. She makes friends faster than any human I ever met. She doesn’t even bark.

Not sure what to make of Gladys’s expression in the third! “Good one Mom”? “She said it, I just thought it”? Maybe she didn’t like the restaurant Brutus chose yesterday and is still mad at him…

I suppose I am weird, but family or not, I would never stand for anyone to denigrate any of my loved ones. Why do people let their parent(s) denigrate their spouse?
