He’s dying to look young.

The only thing that is going to do is darken his belly hair from gray to brown.

Good he’s not using Brylcreem … or is that a sculptured gut?

He’ll look so youthful when he’s wearing his crop top.

Oooh, disgusting!

Is it a lotion? Shouldn’t it be like a protein powder instead?

He should be more concerned with looking so freaking ugly!

I never had the Dad bod like Simon, but there was no way of avoiding my new Grandad bod.

Listen to your gut, but don’t always do what it wants.

Hey Impkins… think we should call a Green Plaid Alert? It’s from 2013, but it looks sorta green to me. John hasn’t drawn any green plaid in a while, so I think he’s trying to help our livers! I’ve been going over to Monty and Grand Avenue just to get my Green Plaid fix!

What the heck… I’m calling it… GREEN PLAID ALERT! EVERYBODY DO A SHOT!

(I’m a little late… currently in the middle of a Hurricane induced power outage along the Texas Gulf Coast, and running on emergency battery, nothing else to do, except surf the comics and do a shot! … can’t hurt, right!?)

Grecian Back Hair Formula sold separately.

That’s not gonna fix ugly.

Now the hair on his gut is dark?

Fat chance.

Another panel from 2013 that I don’t remember, so it’s new to me!

More cardio bro

Simon says stop aging.

Bleen was not born yet, so he missed this, luckily for him.
