The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 17, 2022

Also spracht mrs. Broccoli.

I suppose this qualifies as witchcraft

May Santa bury her under a load of coal.

If Brutus saw her before he married Gladys, then yes, he would have to be nuts.

Who is the nut? The nut or the one who married him?

Says the “woman” who flies on a broom, causing PANIC to all the children in the neighborhood!!!!

/SHNARK/

Candy goes with nuts quite nicely, Ma Gargle! ;P

Nuts to have married any relative of hers.

It’s a shame Mother Gargle doesn’t have a peanut allergy – then she’d hafta avoid Brutus

Have I missed the day when Gladys was sweet as candy?

I’ve always stayed away from peanut brittle because I’m afraid it might pull out my fillings. But perhaps not.

And you are brussel sprouts and go together with nothing and no one.

That’s the difference between Brutus and his wife or Brutus and his mother-in-law. Brutus and Gladys complement each other, but you can be sure as shooting, that Brutus will never compliment mother Gargle!

Sometimes you feel like a nut…

Good one, momma G.

The nuts are usually salted, and she may hear some salty language

To Momma Gargle, her daughter Gladys will seem sweet, compared to Momma. But, to the rest of us, Gladys has got to go some to appear sweet. Brutus is more sweet and Gladys is more nutty.

Jesus saves. Even Mother Gargle. https://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=JOHN+3.16+VALENTINE Be blessed all. If you only get coal for Christmas – burn it- Baby it’s cold outside.

Mother Gargle’s mordacious comments have made him “nuts.”

It takes one to know one.

The old battle axe is at her best. She’d be out the door so fast, it would make her hair lay flat.

The nuts are the best part, like all three of them at the bottom of a box of Cracker Jack.

and Gladis is the kind soul to be used as the box to hide them in. ;)

Seems like Gargle had her usual breakfast of irreverence with a side of snark.

Well, it is not peanut brittle without the nuts…so nuts to you!

More like chocolate and peanut bitter… ☺

Said the sociopath. Just because he’s crazy to tolerate her doesn’t make him loco all around but she’s too self absorbed to see reality.

I think they’re hungry.

Was Gladys adopted???

Ah good ole Mother Gargle, the rotted vegetables of the Thornapple clan.

Careful there Granny, that was almost a compliment.

Shows you how much Mother Gargle knows, peanuts aren’t nuts they are legumes.

ummm, a peanut is not a nut…

This IS Mother Gargle being nice.Tis the Season.

THANK GOD!!!!!

Grandma Gargoyle is a triple decker toadstool and sauerkraut sand-witch

Said the bitter acid to the sweetest of oranges. As are oranges, Brutus is filled with juices. Less likely bruised.

Brutus’s reply should’ve been: I must be if I wanted to put up with you as my mother-in-law

Aww Brutus… You walked right into that one.

mama missed a chance for a zinger. “she’s sweet and you make peanuts…”

peanuts are, of course, not nuts…

No jury would convict.
