Pickles by Brian Crane for September 28, 2024

can Earl be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor for this?

No wonder Nelson never wants to go home.

Wait! Roscoe wants to come too!

I’ll put BIG money that Opal won’t be happy with Earl.

Hey Earl, the elves are on strike, you might return to whence you left!

Out of curiosity, does Opal have a rolling pin? Earl?!

This is one of those life lessons Grandpa never learned.

You’re one of a kind Earl

My granddaughter likes to clip overgrown ivy in my yard. The first time, when I told her she had to pick it all up, she said “why do I have to do all the work?”

Grandpa Earl is being a bad example…

Back in my early years, a frosty A & W root beer at the drive in was often a reward — not a diversion. In the Pickles household, trouble is brewing.

Earl won’t see what happens but he sure will feel what happens.

I actually suspect Earl’s going to bring him back, and they’ll clean it up together. But we’ll see.

Root Beer FLOAT!! And make it a DOUBLE!!

Pu-lease! How many times in this comic has Opal told Earl, “Clean up the mess you made in the kitchen?” He can wreck it just making a sandwich!

If Gramma cleans up, the toys may be put away somewhere where they won’t be easily available to play with again for quite some time.

Weather report – Prepare for stormy weather.
