I still haven’t mastered my mom’s “look”. She said it gets more potent as one gets older. Hers could make a hitman burst into tears; her dad’s can cause complete loss of bodily function!
I guess I should let people know that I’m celebrating Mother’s Day all week–in my own twisted way. Although the rest of the week’s Mom-themed comics will be a bit more upbeat than this one!
Actually, ejcapulet, this one was originally something I came up when I was brainstorming ideas for a series of Mother’s Day cards. I abandoned this one as a card (but not as a gag) because I couldn’t see anyone buying it for their mom.

A Rabbi friend of mine once told me: “We Jews originated Guilt; you Catholics perfected it!”

It’s a gene on the second X chromosomee that kicks in once you have kids

PS it’s next to the “shoe shopping” gene.

My wife can make me feel guilty in about 5 seconds flat. It’s an unfair skill and I guess that’s why she uses it with abandon.

John, actually, I’m putting it in an e-card and sending it to my mom for Mothers’ Day. She’ll love it. She knows all about her “special look”.

Ej, I love it. Hope your mom does too!

You can try, but she’ll make you feel guilty if you succeed!
