The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for October 08, 2011

Seriously, the comic shrunk on Monday, September 19th. Go back and look at Friday the 17 to see the difference..I would like to make a formal complaint, but do not know how….. The size was perfect before and sucks now………...Let’s nominate Julie Larson to be our representative to convince GoComics to change it back….or else we storm their office….. Suggest we go storm in costume…..SusanSunshine can dress up as JOY (Need green blouse with orange flowers!) ChoirBoyFromHell as BURL…..Mike2 dress up as JERMarg as VERL A (Hit the resale shops to find those glasses)vldazzle as MA (It might take quite a while to get in character)leakysqueaky712 as either Dale or Marlene. (You pick one)Need volunteer for Patty…. And the others from Crustwood…..Any suggestions and/or changes ….? ?

G B with O F again……..

Good Morning All

A po-boys recipe…………toooo funny. We have some of the best po-boys down here………..Short Stop Sandwich Shop.

Well………..I get Marg out on bail, and she’s caught trying to bribe the judge………sheesh.

Leaky, thanks for bailing me out. I swore he was at least 16…

GymShoe, I may have some Verl glasses laying around here somewhere.

Wow, this guy rates actual dinner plates? ( The small ones ) Not plastic or paper? I’m impressed.@GymShoe, Go the the ‘Contact us’ section on this site and send them an email.The more people who complain, the better.

Patty STILL brings boyfriends home? The last one was a Yalie. I guess they make one vist and exit stage left, screaming—and running.

And GymShoe, there’s no way on earth I’ll ever dress up as Jer!

I don’t care who pays for it. I’ve got no desire to look like Burl

GymShoe — I see you have me matched up with Joy again….

Sigh….Hope I didn’t unknowingly offend you somewhere along the way….

But sure, I’ll play her, if I can find a blond wig that’ll fit over my hair.

And that blouse… OMG that blouse.Hope it’s OK if mine is clean.

I already wear glasses (even though my avatar doesn’t) but they’re not as….um….. chic as Joy’s.

But first, who are you playing? I don’t see your name in the cast.

How about Dale?

And I have to ask cos I was confused… did you delete your comment from yesterday before you re-posted it tonight?

I read it there when it was getting too late to bother posting…. then I had a late job, and by the time I got to log in tonight it had moved.

Last week I wrote to GoComics about the smaller size, the day I suggested everyone do it.

I used the Contact Us link that OddBall pointed out today.

No answer yet. They ask on that page that we not write again with he same problem…. but I may anyhow.

I’m sure they’re trying to save bandwidth, but it does a real disservice to the artists to have their work presented in unreadable form.

And….G’mornin’ Crustwoodians…. I was late today….tonight, that is…

I see many of you are already here.

Mmmm…. ancient roast beef from the freezer…. and not much left, so they need small plates.

I bet John found it easy to leave food on his.

Wonder whether he and Patty are going out for a nice dinner later… at their real dinnertime, since the Pennys eat at 4:45.

“Self-control” is some kind of oxymoron to them.

That’s the same boyfriend, BTW.

John. Maybe he’s an intern now. Must just be a souvenir sweatshirt.

The lost key looks kinda found.

Glad to see you Marg.Next time, maybe you’d better ask for ID.

I thought maybe Leaky had a bit of a ….. you know …a drinking problem…ssh…. till you corroborated his story.

g’night Crustwood. Waay past bedtime.

For once, Burl is right. John is a jerk.

Gymshoe, Julie is drawing the cartoons on smaller pieces of paper to save money. Send her a ream of 8 1/2 × 11 paper so she can draw them bigger.

I don’t know if it’s the band width. Until I mentioned it there (yesterday), Strange Brew was full size (and seldom has the detail to warrant that) and Dinette set was one of the first wave to be reduced. I find that in this size, not only are things often too smudged to read, but the edges may even be trimmed (as with the Ho-Ho today?)

Don’t forget the doctor—all he needs is the bandage on his head!

John shows real fortitude by eating anything on the Penny’s table. I would have left it ALL on my plate.

I submitted a complaint. Too bad Comics.com had to disappear. They never had these problems.

On a somewhat related note, anyone know what size an original, as-drawn Dinette Set panel is??

I give, where are the HO HOs.

The ho ho is to John’s right. It’s squished into the top of the paneling.

Well, our march on Go Comics is running into few problems as follows:.Marg: Seems Ok to dress as VERL saying ” GymShoe, I may have some Verl glasses laying around here somewhere.”.Mikie2 refuses to be JER saying “ And GymShoe, there’s no way on earth I’ll ever dress up as Jer! “.SusanSunshine: is uncomfortable as JOY, but will make the effort saying “ GymShoe — I see you have me matched up with Joy again….Sigh…. Hope I didn’t unknowingly offend you somewhere along the way…. But sure, I’ll play her, if I can find a blond wig that’ll fit over my hair. And that blouse… OMG that blouse. Hope it’s OK if mine is clean.”.Dr.Hydrogen: has a different approach to solving this comic size problem saying : “Gymshoe, Julie is drawing the cartoons on smaller pieces of paper to save money. Send her a ream of 8 1/2 × 11 paper so she can draw them bigger.”.ODDBALL: recommends ” @GymShoe, Go the ‘Contact us’ section on this site and send them an email. The more people who complain, the better..So that is what I did, AND I SUGGRET WE ALL DO IT AS WELL. Here is how to do it:.Go to GOCOMICS.com.Click on MY ACOUNTS which is near the upper left corner..Page down one screen and then under” HELP” you will find “ContactUs” Good Luck………………

Ok, Gymshoe, I volunteer to go as Jack. All I have to do is lay down somewhere, I am good at that. Can’t dress as him, Bev sold all his clothes.

Course after reading everyone else’s comments I guess my wife lied to me, size really does matter. I will discuss that with her later.

I will also write the ‘contact us’ section and complain.

Sorry folks, I did find the Ho-ho in the background, but I ate it, then I could tell Joy I ruined my appetite and got out of eating her cooking.

Okay everyone have a good weekend in spite of having to squint your eyes to read the comics!

Good Night Crustwoodians….. wherever you are………… ! ! !.Coffee in the morning….! !
