Mary Worth, 2/16/23

Look, I’m not going to say I’m done with Wilbur, like Estelle and Iris justifiably are, but I am a little sick of his shit, and feel like Mary Worth readers could use a rest from him for a while. That said, I do think today’s strip is a kind of fun meta-commentary, like “Oh, did you you think you had finally achieved inner peace, NOPE, SORRY WILBUR”

We all remember the Ice Bucket Challenge … now get ready for the Ice Bucket Fetish!

Judge Parker, 2/16/23

So wait, you’re telling me that Cavelton had an oxy ring run by drug dealers, and another one run by the cops, and another one run by a judge? Sure explains why everyone has been so loopy around here.

One strip you could write off, but two? That’s a trend. Folks, if you didn’t get your beloved a slab of heart-shaped meat for Valentine’s Day this year, you need to think about what you did wrong and get ahead of the game in planning a meat-tastic 2/14/24. (Note: please only use a cut of meat shaped like a cartoon heart, not an actual animal or human heart, as that would be disgusting.)

Speaking of romance, we last saw the Thorps holding onto their marriage for dear life despite obstacles like Mimi’s flirtatious golf coach. This Valentine’s Day, they’re going to revive their relationship the only way they know how: by trying to have sex as airliners come screaming in for a landing directly above them every four to nine minutes.

Beetle Bailey, 2/14/23

Ha ha, yes, it’s funny that Otto doesn’t want to smell Beetle’s socks, but I do want to point that there are generally only two circumstances where we have dogs try to figure out where people are, and those are “on the run from the law” and “probably dead.”

“I’m shopping! Just like you! Yep, exchanging money for goods and services sure is the name of the game, here in America!”

Dustin, 2/11/23

Dustin’s scrunched up face of glee in the final panel is honestly one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen. “Oh, man, my dad is really being a huge asshole … to someone else for a change. This is the greatest day of my life! For now.”

Mary Worth, 2/11/23

I’ve been reading Mary Worth every day for more than 20 years, and I feel confident in saying that “I forgave Wilbur. I just don’t want to date him anymore!” is the most emotionally mature thing anyone in the strip has ever said, by several orders of magnitude.

Beetle Bailey, 2/11/23

Ha ha, it’s funny because Sarge does have a compulsive eating disorder but doesn’t have any friends!
