    Where did Shirl(ey)’s sister go?

    At this rate, the next movement in the strip will be (at the earliest) Thanksgiving! I mean PLOT movement and not BOWEL movement for the perpetually constipated Mr. Braces. That may come around Christmas.

    He’s just establishing motivation here, guys. Sort of like when the joker complains about getting an acid bath and decides to destroy Gotham City. Now, “My feelings were hurt” is not quite the same as an acid bath, it’s true. I think those Genesis front doors are just about the right size for Robo-Crook or whatever his name is.

    Wonder what Braces paid for the robot? I’d like to see their catalog. Maybe they have a cute chick one.

    If Braces has such a problem with Genesis, wouldn’t he have saved his energy and money and torched the place? That way, Tracy and Co. would be the only ones looking the fools with their King Kong robot.

    Based on Sunday’s advice, Braces should be reporting the Genesis corporation to “school authorities,” not wasting money on giant robots.

    Will Braces get revenge, or will he live forever with the shame of once having his feelings hurt? The suspense is making me yawn.

    Would you believe, I’ve been reading DT as part of my subscription for months without realizing that there’s a whole comments section of people who feel the same pain as I do, and work through it by riffing on the badness? I read the “Celebrated Cases” collection about a thousand times as a kid, so I’ve always loved DT… until now.

    Looking forward to the daily snarkfest!

    The pirate can’t decide what color to wear today, its black and white! Oh, I know, someone will probably complain and tell me Locher is trying to be artsy. I am going to take a nap now. Wake me up when Sam or a robot has something onteresting to say.

    This is all our fault! If we would only send our 8 cents to DL I’m sure he would feel a tremendous sense of obligation to create new and exciting stories that would entertain and thrill us. Who knows, he might even be inspired to draw better hands!

    Send in care of Mattie the Magpie King!

    PS, Hi Maxine, I miss your cooking.

    Peace.

    Hey Braces, if Genesis wants nothing to do with you, FIND SOMEONE ELSE WHO DOES! Instead, he pays good cash for a Robot that is only going to be destroyed or turn on him. Oy!

    g6793 & BassmanBob – I’m afraid the best chocolate chip cookies in the world couldn’t save this storyline. This calls for a batch of Chocolate Scotcheroos!

    I make mine with only half a cup of sugar; they still come out puh-lenty sweet, believe me. And if anybody doesn’t like them, that’s ok – we can still have fun throwing them at Braces and company. Bonus points scored if you hit Pirate Guy’s eyepatch!
