Dad: "Scoot over, puddles. Puddles! PUDDLES!"
Dad: "I think our dog is deaf"
Mom: "Poor thing. I hope we don't lose our hearing"
Dad: "I hope we don't lose our hearing"
It looks like a case of a dark, wide-mouthed culinary preparation container atttempting to identify a boiling, whistling range-top cauldron as opaque…. – Also, since he reacts similarly to Nancy, it looks as if our canine could detect Frank’s wishes…. Just wasn’t prepared to comply…
“Brought to you” by….the Death Couch 3000… “With ‘Anit-Parking’ technology, such as automatic and reversible spring pop-out feature and upholstery ‘discouragement’ devices, to make sure your spot stays… open…”-Chaper-dog… “Never suffer from headaches again!….and Chaper-dog is also easily converted from ‘scape-dog’ to ‘watch-dog’…. Chaper-dog…. Cos a good movie is a terrible thing to waste…” – And by….“I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter On This Popcorn”….
Frank had probably just tuned out rather than actually not hearing the sound of Nancy’s voice. Most likely he is fixated on keeping Puddles and popcorn separate….
My former mother-in-law (who was a lovely lady) was so deaf that you had to almost shout to make yourself heard if you were face-to-face. But whisper something you didn’t want her to know two rooms away and she picked it right up.
I swear – it seems in every frame Nancy keeps getting hotter and hotter while Frank epitomizes the middle-aged, half-bald, spare-tire drooping doofus we all know and try our hardest not to emulate, irregardless of nature’s intent. I bet Nancy’s gonna get fed up with Frank’s “baby-bump” and start looking elsewhere….LOL
“I have been discussing Donnie quite a bit the past couple of hours. Long time no see is a good thing.”--Or a good start?Maybe the Beetlejuice suggestion will workDONNY WALLACE

And “Chillin’ With Quill” can go up against “Dr. Phil”… – And he can have a segment (if he does the smarmy Hollywood dish type of thing called: “the Spill”… and a segment about people’s gripes called: “Who’s Ill?”…
Only Ron Swanson and Wimpy would probably eat more burgers than I….I had to stop the horrible rumor going around… even if I started it in he first place, LOL!!!!….

My husband is deaf, and this happens all the time. Did he hear part of what I said, and think he thought it? Or were we just thinking the same thing?

At age 77, I can relate but Frank is too young. Probably just the wife tune out thing that I have done for 30 years.

My hearing’s fine… the tinnitus is just getting louder. Are you sure you can’t hear it too?
Radical-Knight almost 11 years ago
Last time I went to an audiologist, he said my hearing was fine for someone my age… I never went back!

I had that anthology album… it was a robot (if not a facsimile of the Robot) on the front and said “The Hot Ones”… or was that a “Ronco”?….

It was this.. “The Music Machine” on K-Tel…

Puddles didn’t have trouble hearing the sound of the popcorn shuffling in the bowl. He just didn’t want to share the couch.

And “Chillin’ With Quill” can go up against “Dr. Phil”… – And he can have a segment (if he does the smarmy Hollywood dish type of thing called: “the Spill”… and a segment about people’s gripes called: “Who’s Ill?”…
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Probably because Luann asked him to choose between Hollywood and Her-lywood….
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
Also true….

You forgot the part about Gunther and Lu chowing down on some delicious hamburgers… “The were made with a special blend of meats from Australia, dear”
Mikeyj almost 11 years ago
Yup, that’s Robbie on the K-tel album, alright
JayBluE almost 11 years ago
No, I was making reference to “Chilly Willy” the penguin (because the name reminded me of it) and Al Packer’s Café, which this was reminiscent of….
