Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for August 18, 2012

Gene is So cute! I want to see him lots more!

probably more interesting than Arlo’s day…

That’s why the baby of the family, (me) gets treated so much better than the poor suckers that came before, when parents didn’t know the easy way to do things….Plop ’em in front of the TV and everything is OK…

…and then Billy went, no wait, that was Tommy! Then Tommy went, “No way Jose!” And I said……..

And this girl said to this other girl…

Looks weird. Maybe because it was drawn in 1987?

And he was like. And then I was like “no way” and he was like " oh yes way" and they ere like. ……. SPEAK ENGLISH !!!!!

Also, I think it’s fascinating that many baby boomers are able to insert “you know” as a greatly shortened one-syllable utterance into just about every pronouncement. They do it unconsciously. I’ve heard Hillary Clinton do it. This is not to say that Gene talks like a valley girl or a baby boomer.

Liketotallyfersuredudeyaknow. :-) I’ll still take that over text talk. I can at least understand valley girl. LOL

Yep, that’s a lesson I learned the hard way. If you open your big mouth to suggest how a situation might be improved, you will be appointed to head the committee (of one) to implement said improvements.

For my generation it was the word Man. How ya doing Man, OK Man,

He-man!

I hope the kid got to keep his GI Joes when he grew up. It’s taking me forever to rebuild my collection!
