For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for December 02, 2008

Gweedo: Misery loves company.

Gweedo - ever see women go to the bathroom in packs? Ever see woman dance in packs at a club? Why does Elly want to help Connie? It’s a PACK thing… Don’t try to understand man, we men “will just never understand it.” as my woman says.

i’m so glad that i’m a man and don’t care about my weight!

Men should care about their weight too. But if you were born a cocker spaniel you will never be a greyhound.

Guys worry about losing hair. EVERYBODY has something! People NEED to have more self respect. O.K. my soapbox s flatted for now! It will rise again! Gonna have a bit more Fiber (not from box) then toilet not the B.C. one either!!!

Fear makes you a good consumer. Fear of germs sells the plethora of antibacterial bleeep, fear of fat sells diets and exercise equipment, fear of stink sells carcinogenic air fresheners, fear of your fellow man sells you guns, home security, television, videogame consoles, and other things to keep you amused because you’re a prisoner in your own home, which has a side affect of making you fat… cycle up and repeat.

Where’s Garfield when we need him?

Elly looked fine and skinny but why does she need a diet? To make her look too good for John? Naahh! Not enough! She needs to have good heart of loves and cherishs for John, though.

Remember, when all is said and done: “a waist is a terrible thing to mind”.

AllanVS: That’s Annie, not Connie, in the strip. Connie’s only kid is Lawrence, who’s Michael’s age.

Change police:

In panel 2, the original strip spelled the word “yogurt” with the second “o” - “yogourt”

In the 70s, it was spelled this way quite often… but you don’t find it spelled that way anymore.
