Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for February 20, 2017

um… thank goodness ’twasn’t AC/DC or Def Leppard

Pete could be singing ♪♬ If I had a hammer ♪♬ and accompanying it with his hammering.

Kiss?

As long as it’s from my husband or on the cheeks by a friend – sure.

“KISS in Attack of the Phantoms” (1978) aka “KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park”, anyone?

Or the episode “Glitter Rock” from “Quantum Leap”?

Thank you, X_TECH!

@Susan I have read your comment thanks to…

I follow yesterday’s question: What happened?

What happened???

I’m protesting!!!

That’s what I wrote @ moderator@gocomics.com

"Topic: SusanSunshine

Why did you block her? I see no reason whatsoever.She’s always polite and funny; you’re lucky to have her!

Oh, wait – she doesn’t agree with everything you do? Publicly?Well – that’s called freedom, I think.

Yes, it’s your page – but if you can’t stand some criticism, you’d have to shut down each and every critical statement/cartoon. That’d make your page booooooring – and not worth reading.

Best regards, Tigressy."

Nice to have known you! ;-)http://www.gocomics.com/profile/2937229

Several others have disappeared on here as well. Of all the posters on here SusanSunshine says very little to be taken as offensive (well, by sane people)I wonder, will I get a reply from GC when I send them an email?

Not at all a fan of Kiss. Even just listening to it would be like I’m on the Highway To Hell.

@BLEE257 Did you ever tell so her directly?

You do know she can still read you, don’t you? ;→

(sigh) My renewal is coming up. Still debating.

@Grog I’m not a fan at all, either – but both the movie and the mentioned episode are hilarious!

Blee257 Well, all you had to do is scroll past them. Sort of like many will be doing to your posts now.

No I don’t like to be kissed, I’m weird that way. As for Kiss, I’m not much of a rock n roll fan but I was singing along with Peter and it’s still in my head, so thanks for that.

I’m not sure what Blee sees as rants, Susan but I for one (one of the many) enjoyed your comments, even though I don’t comment often myself. I did email the moderator and hope you are reinstated soon.

You’re kidding! KISS sang that?!?!? I’m horrible about putting artists to songs. But somehow, that song just seems totally out of character for them. I can actually understand some of the words. They’re actually singing instead of screaming. Then again, I did see The Phantom of the Opera in Toronto when Paul Stanley played the Phantom. And he was phenomenal.

@Tony:

Nah, I prefer The Beatles, Beach Boys and other bands/acts from the 1960s. And right now, I’d prefer to ask today’s…

Second “Daddy’s Home” Question:

Do you wanna rock and roll all night and party every day?

Well, the Sunshine has gone out of the comics today. Susan is very intelligent and I have learned a lot from her posts. The are always funny and interesting. I think you get banned because people flag you. I think I know who has been doing that flagging. Well, two can play at that game. Hope you are back soon Susan Sunshine!

GoComics I think you made a mistake!!! She always says positive things and is always nice to everyone!!!

My kids used to laugh and call my music “fossil” rock. Now that’s what they listen to instead of what passes for music today.

I’m pretty firmly in 60s music, with toes in 70s and 80s. But my kids think my music was great and I’ve been in more than one trendy LA restaurant lately playing 60s soundtracks.

I do not comment here, but I read the comments, and Susan Sunshine is always funny and interesting. It’s absurd that she has been blocked.

Susan, I’ve sent an email to GC. A large part of why I am a member here is because of you. My sister lives in Santa Rosa….we’ve got to have a banana daq some time.

I’ve spent a lot of time talking to Susan on the phone. She is the least offensive person I know.

I simply can’t see why she should be banned. And if we all have to live in fear of offending some unseen unknown “moderator” then this site becomes a mysterious place where we have to tiptoe around, and that’s not right.

I’m not a fan of “banning” without telling the offender what exactly he/she did that was wrong. This secretive innerworkings must stop or there will be no one left here. I’ve already eased back on posting every day. It’s no fun anymore and this just might be the thing to push me out for good. It’s too bad, this used to be fun.

Susan’s back, but now I am blocked. Good Googly Mollie.

Hey, everybody! I think I’m back!!

I want to thank you ALL for the kind words and the tremendous show of support.

Unfortunately, as you can see above… they’ve now banned x_Tech, apparently for trying to help me!

He never posts anything objectionable, so it would have to be that.

If the posts he makes on tomorrow’s strips don’t appear, then he’ll need our help, too, please!

Meanwhile… I looked over as many of my recent comments as I could, and couldn’t find anything I could tell might be a reason to ban me….

and I wouldn’t have posted anything like that in the first place.

So really think this may have been a glitch of some sort, or perhaps they’ve instituted a temporary automatic ban based on flagging, until they have time to review the actual posts….

and who knows who may have tried to make unwarranted trouble for me OR X_Tech….

Hard to believe, but I know some people just like to do that for fun….

you saw a post about my “rants,” when I don’t think I’ve ever ranted here.

That’s why I DO flag a few malicious people…. so I can alert the mods, when they demean other posters or use inappropriate language…. but won’t have to say anything to them and help them get the attention they’re seeking.

It takes a lot to cross my line… my language off line isn’t pristine, and I’m no prude.

Still, this is a family site… and any cruelty towards or attacks on other posters is also unacceptable to me.

Thanks again!!
