Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for February 10, 2010

Communication - so important in a relationship!

I have my wife call me on her cell phone when she’s on her way home…great early warning system…sometimes…

if you know what’s good for you……don’t even ask for the remote. better yet, make a u turn….tip toe out and hit the bar. you’re gonna be yelled at either way. might as well not remember it.

Wonder if the sign comes in flashing neon ?

Well I don’t know nothing about that yet, but I did used to work with a guy who would rush right out to get chocolate for any female who showed any sign of being unbalanced.

He is a very wise man! He even kept some ready when he suspected he might need it!

This is one of my favourite strips in a long time… :D

As if “Early warning” makes any difference.

Detente or De taunt. Either way it’s dangerous.

It says “cookies” (it should say “chocolates”…) I love this one! Makes things much easier on both halves!

Post? Not, Pre? I’d worry about brain chemistry.

When my SO gets to yakking about how sometimes “girls cry for no reason” I like to remind him that just because men are no better than a lightswitch hormonally speaking doesn’t mean there is no reason. Women are a precision piece of biological engineering, and we have to change hormonal gears our whole lives through to accomodate everything biology wants out of us ;)

So if it sucks for you guys to endure at a remove, just imagine how much it sucks when you know you can’t escape from it. And bring chocolate icecream ;)

Trust the house has two tv’s. and, he should be a good cook.

I don’t understand the food on the floor. But, GuntotingLiberal is right. Women are a precision piece of biological engineering. Men, are either turned on or off.

been there …

I laughed so hard when I read this! Great cartoon. L

Perfect illustration of cookies (sweets) and chips (salty) that are necessary to soothe the hormone deficiencies! What a great, great cartoonist you are, Wiley Miller! You’ve got people pegged.

The only thing missing was chocolates, but then maybe she would not need the sign. I love orange peel with dark chocolate (make it myself, too).

The syndrome was predictable. It was it’s manifestations that always bushwacked me.

Just have her comitted, case closed.

Since I value my good health, I’ll simply say…

No. Comment.

A little “happy pill” a day tends to help with the occasional lows with SOME individuals …

One of my favorite things about Wiley’s strip is the detail he puts in the settings he puts his characters in. It makes the artwork fun to look at even after you’ve read the strip.

When you hear the lioness roar, it is chair and whip time (as in lion tamer) Back! Back!! Only makes matters worse though as the lioness can’t hear your screams!!

Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine, two dozen roses, five pounds of chocolate and the problem is solved.

Trebor39 you are so right! Wiley, thank you so much for your insight. Hilarious and too bleeep insightful.

Sorry Trebor39, she’ll only accuse you of trying to make her fat.

With my sister it was more making sure she was properly caffeinated in the a.m. Wonder how it will be when she hits the change…

maybe if he wore 3D glasses and got something from doc ook… love ALL your work Willey!

Boy, us guys sure find this funny. I can hardly wait for the Viagra quips and the yucks those engender…Excuse me while I cry for the insensitivity of this…this..this…CARTOON!!! :)

I am not a flash!

I’m going to need a portable version when I hit “the change”. Maybe a mood ring? I bet my husband would appreciate that :D

There is a doomed man. No matter what he says/doesn’t say or does/doesn’t do it will be the wrong thing.

say Hi honey love you and lock yourself inyour room!

Very funny.

Flowers say “I’m sorry”; chocolate says “I love you”. Seems to work around here…

If you can endure(the instant pain) make her a pot of Tea, and offer a back rub, it builds points for those “other” days! Great panel!

Uh-oh!!

She is being kind to her husband, this way he doesn’t have to find out the hard way.

So way down there somewhere, there must be a spark of love.

tismejay, back rubs, neck rubs, foot rubs, leg rubs, arm rubs, hand rubs, what ever you can get a way with rubs, all work…Oh, yeah, she’ll still be bit chy , but she’ll feel guilty about it later…that’s to your advantage..

For extra fun, add a week of fertility meds–it’s like PMS TWICE a month! (Pity my husband. Pity him.)

Somebodyshort, you ain’t old till it’s stuck in the”off” position!!

Thank God for Viagra!

pbarnrob, my husband brought me flowers last week because he knew I was having a bad day. It was a great pick-me-up.

You could make a ton of money by developing one of these for retail
