Another perfect channeling of the essential Bushmiller Nancy, enriched and freshened by a modern Master Creator. This strip could not be in better hands.
me steppin out of the house in a pair of $18 ripped jeans i bought at a discount over a year ago right after i got a fresh haircut and wanted to feel like i was completing some kind of visual or physical self re-imagining in the hopes that that would somehow make my own mental reconstructing of my identity stick for longer than a week and a half and now the rips have totally fallen apart and the jeans r just fulla square holes and i earn like ten bucks an hour at my part time job so like i really could afford another pair of jeans if i was willing to spend money on anything but some part of my brain totally wont let me use my dollars 4 voluntary purchasez bc its convinced that ill need those 18 bucks later for some important vital reason so instead i just walk around in my dumb beat up jeans n look like a bad caricature of the teenager who smokes in bathrooms in a nineties school psa about not doing drugs
I’ve been seeing my wife work all week on costumes for our two youngest children. I wonder if it will be worth the effort, and I realize…yes, they will remember the love long after the costumes are forgotten.
And before you ask—yes, I am helping her, by cooking dinner, cleaning the house, etc.

Like, every day; or does she get to rotate through it like… her… other… clothes. Never mind.

We see here the essential division of people, between those who’ll spend money to save time and those who spend time to save money.

That’s our Nancy, always pushing the fashion envelope.

Hum! Two Bushmilleresque gags in a row! I’m impressed.

Big deal. I wear my sexy ballerina costume to work every Friday.

I hope Nancy has fun the one time she wears it. Halloween is as much for being silly as for celebrating food harvest.

Not “only wear once,” but “wear only once.” Why is “only” such a difficult concept for writers/speakers/readers?
