So he’s not at his best anymore … that doesn’t have to mean he can’t be at least okay for something.

Just because many of us are past the " best before" date, doesn’t mean we don’t have better than average qualities left over…

Welcome to the club, Cosmo … [weary sigh].

I know mine did.

I’ve outlasted my “best by date.”

Even so, Cosmo has still been accused of being fresh with women.

So that’s the date Cosmo talked about in yesterday comic. No wonder it was such a downer.

Like I said, an abandoned mine.

Probably true, madam, but geez, if a guy says that about a woman, he gets in trouble.
