The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 04, 2025

Incert rimshot here, bada boom!

Less shrills, more thrills!

Happy Shrew (less) year

The only downside of this is that Mother Gargoyle ….. ALWAYS returns!!!

:-(

I was sure she lived there full-time.

Just say it Brutus! I’ll not read it if you insult the lady! But get it off your chest (I’ll read it)

She is quite a pill.

When she comes for her next visit, Brutus can sing another B.B. King hit…, Why I Sing the Blues.

Nice one Brutus

“The wind is cold

The night is young

Before it’s old and grey

We will know

The thrill of it all”

Roxy Music

Ding dong the witch is gone, which old witch? The wicked witch! Ding dong, the wicked witch is gone! (Ok so it’s supposed to be dead, but we can improvise on the lyrics)

If you want to make “Mother Gargoyle” uncomfortable just buy a dog whistle.

Shrill but not forgotten!

Shrill be back ;-(

he’s had his fill of the Shrill!

Nice pun, Brutus. :)

I’m so happy when you’re elsewhere,

Life is lovely when you leave here,

Tell me you won’t stay, make me smile!

Hilarious and wonderful! Truly a great gag and invoking B.B. makes it even better!

Oh , aren’t you clever today Brutus .

Oh Brutus, You know you love her quid pro quo. I’m a thinking the old lady just winds you up like a Big Ben because she loves ringing your bell.

he’s awful… but then again, so is she. :J

Thank God and Greyhound she’s gone

Someone’s sleeping on the couch tonight.

IDE be dancing and singing….DING DONG THE WITCH IS GONE! ☺️☺️

Good riddance to bad rubbage l say. It’s not JUST overstaying it is just the fact that she comes over. However, when you marry a woman, you do also marry her family. It is a package deal. A warning to all of you considering marriage,CHOOSE WISELY….. ….

The shrill is gone.

The shrill is gone away.

The shrill is gone.

The shrill is gone away.

You know you’ve done me wrong. And you’ll be sorry someday.

Good one, Brutus!

good reply Thorny

The future would be brighter and quieter if she went to visit her Mom instead of the other way. But then we wouldn’t have the angst expected with this comic.

Butt is it “Gone away for good”?

But she is Mama Boomerang. She will always be back. If Gladys went to stay with Mama, Brutus would have to try to cook for himself and Wilberforce. Poor Kewpie would be begging the neighbors for food because Brutus would forget.

As Arnold Schwarzenegger said I"ll Be Back.

Now he can break out the Gibson ES 335

Love me some B.B. King – but remember, Brutus, the Shrill may be gone, but “There’s always one more time”… Thank you, B.B. King!

Mic drop, Brutus!!! LOL Beware the return of Mother Gargle!! LMAO!

Nice turn of a phrase in the last panel, Brutus!
