Shoe by Gary Brookins and Susie MacNelly for January 24, 2025

Yep, that was my late wife alright…..

His late wife must have been dressed, too…. with Stove Top.

And Ed Sullivan always thought of the editor when he announced “a Really Big Shoe”.

Really……she is still being critical?

Sorry I’m late, I’ll be home around six.

I’ve learned to ask beforehand (I’m color blind).

She’s not just late. She’s fashionably late.

And he had to pay to hear that ?

Well she’s likely wearing something to die for.

Tacky, tacky, tacky.

She just went….

I always hated that stupid freaking line. 1) God forbid I ever said anything like that to any woman. Ever. 2) Why can’t you just say, “baby, may I give you an opinion on your outfit?” It’s not the nagging that is so detestable, it’s the condescending, manipulative tone with which they say it.

If my girlfriend ever says that, I’ll have to remember to say “yes, yes I am.” And walk away. You want respect? Then treat the man in your life with respect.
