Agnes by Tony Cochran for February 11, 2012

Sad but true & funny at the same time.

rrgh. That’s a homonym mix-up that always makes me retch.

I can actually hear my husbands’ voice, when I read “wifey poo” lol!

Fried balogna sandwich… That’ll do the job, all right. Although meatball subs are better.

Or bacon… most guys like bacon.

Hm. No one commented on the difference between “wretch” and retch, which is the word that ought to have been used here.

You know she;s got a point. She nailed this one.

Gotta put a dab of gasoline behind each earlobe…

Re “wretch” vs “retch”:

Give her a break. She’s only, what, like 10 years old? At that age, few of us were perfect spellers.(Whenever possible, I prefer to ascribe grammatical or spelling errors to the character rather than to the cartoonist. A spelling error in a dialogue balloon would clearly be Tony Cochran’s fault, but we’re looking at Agnes’s OWN writing. A grammatical error can almost ALWAYS be blamed on the character.)

Just call me “everything is better with Bacon!”
