Agnes by Tony Cochran for May 25, 2024

still better than spanking i guess

Cough syrup and Benadryl.

With 50% alcohol. Call CPS—quick!

It’s good to have an exorcise routine.

Satan has low-brow taste to come into the trailer park.

She bid 50 but Satan called her bluff

That’s illegal and unconscionable, the giving of cough syrup to get a child to sleep. Well, it might not be illegal, but it should be.

World-weary adults do not provide the best parenting. :)

A rare insight to a moment of tenderness is Agnes’ life

It’s a nice song. Check it out on YouTube.

Maybe Grandma sings it to remember Agnes’s dad.

Cochran’s humor is so freaking deep

Bids Satan to leave the room and take those stuffed dresser creatures with him…

Pretty sure that kind of cough syrup requires a prescription, but from what we know of Trout’s mom, that probably isn’t much of an issue.

That song and prayer sound more like Southern Baptist than it does, the Catholic church they attend.

for good measure, granny could try the japanese approach. on setsubun in february it’s customary for family members to scatter beans while exclaiming oni wa soto! fuku wa uchi! (demons out! good fortune in!). beans are an improvement on the original practice of chucking sardine heads… ☺

In future she will use vodka.

So they’re both abused?

that was a good one.
