Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for May 06, 2011

Now you’ve gone too far, Cathy. I’m with Irving… aack!!

Don’t worry, Irving… this will all blow away shortly with the dot-com bubble and things will pretty much go back to normal

And women wonder why men hate to shop!

I don’t have a word for the next level beyond aack!

Maybe howling at the moon.

Poor Irving. I sorta feel bad for Cathy because I wonder if she can hear herself.

This is like a technical person explaining the extraneous details of the inner workings of something very complicated. Cathy, you know Irving can’t handle that, simply pick out his clothes and give him 1 or 2 simple guidelines and be done.

I was AACK-ing before the third panel, too

I’m a woman too, and I just wore the closest thing to what people I liked wore. But it wasn’t too hard at our company. We were a big “merit/results before all else” group, and my boss was definitely not known for his fashion sense.

I was able to follow it, in a mathematical sort of way, sentence by sentence. Of course, how it might correspond to the real world… that’s another thing.

“Also, you’ll need a toss-on jacket that can turn the whole look into evening wear!”??? Is she kidding me?!? That’s a girl thing … not a guy thing! I’m with Irving on this one … “Aack!!” indeed!!!!!!!!!!

It IS what women get told all the time in the stupid fashion mags. That’s what the joke is – poor Irving just can’t take it. (It also should be noted that all the cr*p that is displayed in those fashion mags is designed mostly by men – so let them have a dose of their own meds.)
