Adam@Home by Rob Harrell for November 19, 2009
Transcript:
Adam: Most heat escapes through the windows, so I got some of these insulation kits. Laura: Good idea. Need some help? Adam: Nah. Piece of cake. I just tape the film to the windows and run a hair dryer over it. "Later..." Clayton: Mom! Dad's stuck in the window plastic, again! Laura: Get the scissors! But not my good ones!

thatās so true! Mom, a gifted sewer, had one pair for her to use and one pair for her kids to borrow.

What a doofus!
@ somebodyshort Iām a bit psycho about my scissors too.
WoodEye over 15 years ago
Itās not quite fair. I sharpen her scissors to perfection, yet I canāt use them.

I laughed so much at Adamās reaction that I forgot to read the comic!
cdward over 15 years ago
Iām frightened now. Yesterday my wife bought one of those plastic sheeting kits. Only sheās the one who said, āYou wonāt need any help - itās a piece of cake.ā Think Iāll make sure Iāve got some scissors on hand.

Woulda been funnier if Adam was in a āHan in Carboniteā pose. >_>

So am I. I cut my own hair and I need good scissors for that.

I like Claytonās remark āstuck in the window AGAINā like itās not the first time. HA!

The dad seems to be a neanderthal !
cleokaya over 15 years ago
I never realized that I had anything in common with Adam.

Youāre right, JAD, the comic would have been much improved if Adam were shown outside the film, with Clayton complimenting his father on a job well done.
We all could have had a warm and wholesome chuckle, and maybe picked up some useful pointers, as well!

Adamās just trying to stay fresh through the winter.

Doc: I think Fritzoidās tongue was planted firmly in his/her cheek.

information: I think Docās was, too. :-)

āIāve clipped nearly 300,000 newspaper comics for my archive, Iām a bit picky about my scissors too.ā
And maybe a bit obsessive about your comic collection, Doc. ;^)
fritzoid Premium Member over 15 years ago
Hey Doc, maybe we can start a campaign to have GoComics add āHints from Heloiseā to their roster. Nothing entertains your average comics fan more than sound, practical advice.
Iād imagine the fan response would eclipse āPibgornā, āOverboardā, and āState of the Unionā combined!

@ vawser:
I would be careful kidding Doc about his comic collection! He has a spare set of scissors to deal with people who say things like that.
:-D

I thought that the last panel was a neat portrait of Adam hung outside.
Lyle F'tore over 15 years ago
This ranked high on my humor scale.

I would also like to say āThanksā to JAD for pointing out the problems with the cartoon - boy, is that cartoonist silly. Thanks again, JAD, your input is always SO helpfulā¦
Banjo Evans over 15 years ago
@fritzoid ā aaa. Good. sorry.
