Drabble by Kevin Fagan for April 26, 2023

Silence is bad? Norm has already lost Echo?

He deserves this. He has been too wishy-washy, with his eye constantly straying back towards Wendy, the poison pill.

I’m beginning to suspect a setup…………

Echo found her true love, better now than later

Didn’t, not don’t. Is it too late to blame this all on the cartoonist?

type A vs type D personalities

You missed your chance, Norman……………….maybe………..

Another classic Neil moment: “Dinner was great again, Mrs. Drabble!” “Thank you, Neil!” “I want you to know that I certainly don’t expect you guys to cook dinner for me every time I come over! I hate to see you go to all that trouble!” (Honeybunch smiles). “Believe me, it’s quite all right if you’d rather just take me out to a fine restaurant!” SFANID

When you see a beautiful girl with an ugly guy…it means this guy knows how to talk sweetly to his girl. I’ve seen it over and over!

Norm may be the dumber of the two in matters of love, but, from what I’ve seen, I suspect Neil is dumber in every other metric.

Norman is just not good enough for Echo.

Neil is her brother

Blonde and dumb? not what this guy wants.

Today’s strip is now my favorite “Drabble” of all time.

Neil going for the forbidden fruit?

Norman is a dumb bumphus

Okay, I know Norm is a little. . .uh, slow. . .but at least he’s not grungy. . .c’mon, Echo, I can’t possibly sit through six weeks of you and what’s-his-name. . .

Who is Neal anyway? I don’t remember him.

Wait, didnt she once tell Norm that she had a boyfriend but they could be friends?

There is always the other girl in Norm’s life that he can fall back to.

What’s that old saying? “Faint heart never won fair lady.”

How does that country western song go…“Why didn’t I think of that?”
