Pickles by Brian Crane for November 06, 2024

They could do a plot line where Opal’s shoulder goes out and then she can’t fold fitted sheets.

It COULD, he didn’t say it WAS.

Easy Roscoe, don’t hurt yourself, laughing!

Even Roscoe got a chuckle from that one!

Could be!!, working out of his comfy chair and actively getting to the fridge for a beer and pizza slice, may induce joint pain!

Roscoe also got a good laugh at that one.

Roscoe thought that was hilarious.

What? You think those cookies, coffee, chips and beers all walked from the kitchen to the couch all by themselves ? I have the crumbs-trail to speak of my daily accomplishments.

Even earls fat hurts.

I agree, Opal. I agree.

Earl set himSELF up for Opal’s display of contempt this time. He clearly hasn’t done anything strenuous… the entire time this strip has been in existence.

Unfortunately as we age the bar for defining strenuous activity acts like a Limbo Bar.

Getting up out of a recliner can be strenuous activity

I laughed at that one, too, Opal!

Roscoe seems to be enjoying the Earl / Opal conversation in last panel. You have to laugh even if you’re a dog.

I think that Roscoe is laughing in the last panel : )

The Roscoe laugh!

Nothing hurts joints and muscles as much as INactvity.

Opal you are so right.
