Pickles by Brian Crane for July 10, 2015

“What is also this ‘Facebook’ you speak of,” asks Earl and Opal to their daughter.

What is their daughter’s name? She looks more like their granddaughter.

That last frame is the best Earl’s looked in a long time.

At a $180 for a facial, I’d be a bit sensitive , too.

Poor Earl… Surrounded.

Not all gossip on Facebook. None of my friends do, nor do I. We all post beautiful pics, funny pics & videos, jokes, public information, etc. I have just as many men friends as women on FB.

Real men don’t get facials or eat quiche.

When I lived in Arizona we used to say: Real cowboys don’t eat quiche or line dance !"

You’re also right about Facebook !

I guess I be sensitive too if they give me a facial that containbird excrement!

Pet Peeve: People who love snapping photos who don’t ask first. It soars into monstrous intrusion when it’s intended for social media. JUST.DON’T.GO.THERE.

Real men eat quiche if they damned well please!

i have never understood what’s unmanly about quiche. after all, it’s just scrambled eggs and bacon in a pie crust. maybe the guys who coined the phrase should have picked a different foodstuff. chicken salad maybe. i don’t know. somebody out there can think of an unmanly food ( without making fun of gays, or softspoken men)

Earl might use this quote to answer Sylvia.(John Wayne style)“The lines on my face tell a story. A story of many years of joy and sorrow.The cuts and scars tell a story of men trying to enforce their will on me,and, my will enforced on them.”

“real men don’t do facebook either unless they are prone to gossip.”.That “unless” throws the whole concept out.REAL men gossip.
