I love how Tommy greets everything in life like a fresh-born baby. He got off drugs when a pharmacist told him that there were treatments for addiction, and he reacted like it was the first he ever heard of such a thing. Now he's looking at the photos in a barber shop and thinking, 'Wait, so hair ... can be cut, and even styled? Wow, that actually explains so much.’
Hi all! Um, sorry for the posting gap: My mom is here visiting for a few days and I thought I’d have time to post while we entertained her but it turns out that I haven’t. So, I should have new posts up … starting tonight, or if not, then tomorrow afternoon. Sorry!
While you’re waiting, though, here’s a dilemma for you: What former children’s TV host does Aldo Kelrast most resemble? Discuss.

That’s right, Mary, let the rage and hate flow through you. But wait until he’s actually standing in front of you to unleash that left hook.

I have to admit that this is a pretty stunning layout — I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a comic strip divided up like this before. I don’t know how it would look shrunk down to the size necessary to cram it into a newspaper comics section, but it looks good here. It’s a particularly good fit for the broad vista in the top panel. Too bad it’s all in the service of such a joke so spectacularly lame that I think it’s the product of a joke-generating computer — and not a good one, either. Some of Betty’s butt might have helped.

Shitting. The baby is talking about shitting.
