Transcript:
Mom: "Frank, what are you doing?" Dad: "Washing my face" Dad: "I took off my glasses to put on some lotion. I thought this was a tube of moisturizer till my face started to burn- it's hand SANITIZER!" Dad: "I HATE it when I do stupid things 'cuz I can't see!!" Mom: "Then this probably isn't the best time to tell you than you're washing your face with my underwear"

I’m sure you washed the underwear out before Frank got hold of them, didn’t you, Nancy?

I wonder if Luann’s parents can afford LASIK surgery? Then Frank wouldn’t be doing stupid things while visually impaired anymore.
Peabody429 almost 12 years ago
I’m sure the next panel is not suitable for children.

Would hand sanitizer burn your face? It doesn’t burn your hands. I don’t have any on hand (as it were) to try, so i don’t know. Toothpaste, now…THAT burns.

…Well, if Frank were quick on the whip, he could make it sexy tommorrow.
But Frank+Quick on the whip=Does not compute

Ah, right.

Trimming the hair around the temples of my glasses is a problem. I have to remove the glasses to get to the hair, but then I can’t see it.

I miss the good old days when Sunday strips were 9-12 panels.I would tell you that Mr. Evans is slacking off,but the Sheriff gets upset with me when I say things like that, so I am not going to tell you.^^In reality, it has more to do with restrictions in panel size by the syndicates, Bill Watterson quit the biz, over it!

Could be worse, could be an old left-over pair of Brad’s undies

He wouldn’t have been shaving at night, would he?

He couldn’t eat for a week, but he could whistle really well.
Mighty_Mouse almost 12 years ago
Great comments. Maybe the sanitiser was the only mistake. At least Nancy doesn’t wear Grandma panties like Bridget Jones.
Angelalex242 almost 12 years ago
Or maybe Frank the closet pervert is using this as an excuse to sniff panties…
Sisyphos almost 12 years ago
Poor Frank can’t win today. It’s not all that good for Nancy, either, having her underwear used as a wash cloth….
Michael Peterson Premium Member almost 12 years ago
Terrycloth underwear? The honeymoon is really over, man.
Fly On The Wall almost 12 years ago
Ain’t like Frank hasn’t had his face where them drawres go anyway.
Mordock999 almost 12 years ago
So?
percenez almost 12 years ago
why doesn’t she just say “panties”?
SwimsWithSharks almost 12 years ago
Nice cover story, Frank.
Any chance you do that all the time with her panties? Freak!
schmid13 almost 12 years ago
Is it just my imagination or has Frank lost 20 pounds?
schmid13 almost 12 years ago
Or is this a flash forward strip of Brad and Toni. Sounds like Brad.
schmid13 almost 12 years ago
Panties, oh yes, how could I forget.
Laylagra almost 12 years ago
Reminds me of the time we were keeping our grandchildren and my husband brushed his teeth with diaper ointment.

Frank looks just like Brad today.

“I just looked at the ingredients in the hand sanitizer …”

Yes, but did you rub some on your face, Brdshtt? :-)
overtherainbow almost 12 years ago
You’d think it would smell funny, too. The hand sanitizer, I mean.
overtherainbow almost 12 years ago
“She is probably past the “special time’ of her life.”
Probably not, since she’s in her 40s. She was 42 when Luann was either 13 or 16, whichever, I forget, so she’s either 42 or 45. Or 47, if Luann’s 18. Unless she’s aging in Brad time rather than Luann time—or maybe she’s aging in Nancy time. Or in real time. Or not aging at all.
*
What was I talking about? Oh, right, the ‘special time’. All things considered, she’s probably still menstruating in her 40s.

You’re replying to Wesley_B’s comment:
“Lasik Surgery”… It’s just as effective as eating soap to cure diabetes.^^I beg to differ, my Brother is an eye surgery laser technician/repairman and he says that laser surgery is quite effective, the real problem is that the surgeons don’t take the time to calibrate the machines properly! (Which means road trips for him) I can also attest to the fact that my Bro recommended the laser treatment to our Grampa, who after wearing glasses since the 1940s, was able to see clearly again without them at the age of 90!

Hehehe…. same thing happend to me when I turend 40… groan
ewalnut almost 12 years ago
I’m surprised he can’t tell the difference in texture between women’s underpants and a washcloth.
Chris Kenworthy almost 12 years ago
Lesson: Take a good look at the tube BEFORE your glasses come off! ;) Especially if you’re farsighted.
Mikeyj almost 12 years ago
ps. You should see the incredibly creepy eye model my Bro has, it can be taken apart to show all the different components of the human eye

While everyone else is watching “Les Miserables,” Frank is going to see “Hair!”

at some time in my life I decided that it’s more important to keep your glasses on……..ALL THE TIME

Frank already knew that!

a whole week of sunday strips . . . zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
cybergal29 almost 12 years ago
Good idea. I have been looking at wearing sport shorts for underwear since I have not been able to find boy shorts that will not stretch out of shape on me after a few months of wearing them.

Brdshtt! You rock! Thanks for the amazing, detailed report. I suspected hand sanitizer wouldn’t burn, because alcohol itself produces—as you have discovered—a mild cooling effect, upon drying, on intact skin. Remember having your skin rubbed with an alcohol wipe before a blood draw or giving blood? I was thrown by the “maybe he just shaved” angle, but our intrepid Brdshtt has managed to put it straight! Yay! Check your inbox for virtual cupcakes, guy. :-D
overtherainbow almost 12 years ago
Now, as I said earlier, toothpaste…that burns. Too thick to mistake for lotion, though, even for Frank.
overtherainbow almost 12 years ago
I’m still stuck on how Frank managed to use undies instead of a washcloth (now that the hand sanitizer issue has been resolved :-). Are the panties the same color as his washcloths? Same texture? Same thickness? Same…let’s face it…smell? Unless she washed them out, which I’d hope she did if they were hanging about in the bathroom…and then, you’d think they’d be uniformly wet/damp. Or, of course, the hand sanitizer smells stronger and he could be forgiven for not noticing a different bouquet on the panties. Anyway, I conclude that Frank KNEW they were her panties and =chose= to wash his face with them. Because Frank knows how to have a good time!
andymeijers almost 12 years ago
Re LASIK- not everyone is a candidate. They told me I would have to have glasses for distance, or glasses for close up- they could not give me close up to distant. Since I would still be stuck with glasses, seemed pointless to proceed.
RonBerg13 Premium Member almost 12 years ago
That ain’t so bad, as long as it’s your wife’s…
alviebird almost 12 years ago
It would probably burn me. I have very sensitive skin, and shaving leaves my face irritated to begin with. But we won’t find out, because I NEVER shave anymore.
StoicLion1973 almost 12 years ago
Unlike some readers, I won’t get graphic with my comments. Not out of any moral outrage at what people are writing. I won’t make a graphic comment because it’s too easy.
boldyuma almost 12 years ago
Then,, Frank said in a loud voice…“Woof !”
BostonTerrier almost 12 years ago
I beg to differ. Had lasik 12 years ago and it changed my life. I still have 20/15 vision. Key here is…go to a good surgeon, not one of these guys that advertises on tv/radio.
BostonTerrier almost 12 years ago
Thanks for this hands-on report!!!
Xsia almost 12 years ago
He could have found the lotion, THEN taken his glasses off… but I guess that would have ruined the comic. ;)
marvee almost 12 years ago
Does she wear terrycloth underwear?

Welcome to another chapter of:“SPIT-TAKE THEATER”
Mikeyj almost 12 years ago
You’re replying to Dora Dingle’s comment:The only underwear I wear is swimwear (since 1994).^^So, what you’re saying is, you can take the girl off the swimteam, but, you can’t take the swimteam off the girl! ;)
AmyGrantfan51774 almost 12 years ago
that was funny first putting hand sanitizer on his face then wiping his face with underwear!!!!!!!!!!
cebec almost 12 years ago
Today’s strip was a litle raunchy for a family newspaper, but it sure made me laugh out loud. You go Frank!
wiatr almost 12 years ago
He can’t feel the difference? What does she wear?
cebec almost 12 years ago
Telling the difference is missing the whole point. If Frank is a normal male, he would be happy to be using her underwear.
rugratz2222 almost 12 years ago
If he has them … what is she wearing under that robe?
da11a5 almost 12 years ago
nut n wrong wit dat!

If his vision is that bad, I think it might be time to invest in laser eye surgery.
