Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for July 27, 2016

“Lousy genes,” the lad says. Oh, sure, blame the parents.

If this brat were mine, he wouldn’t see the light of day until school started..

No, the birdhouse was bored.

xmastree….

No, it was bored, while it was just sitting there.Now the hole thing is finished, and it can go hang out someplace.

OK, I suppose now you guys will make me go get Tony’s question.Sheesh.

So… Tony asks:“Skinny jeans?”

Lines like that are my job, Tony.You don’t have to be the one ostracised…I’ll take one for the team.

But since you already asked…Not once they’re on me.

Ain’t nothin’ skinny around here.

skinny jeans?

no, just had knee surgery the looser the better.

Skinny jeans? Are a rip off of the old Levi’s stretchie’s from the 60s!!! And they did stretch!!! these new ones do not!!!

Well I wouldn’t wear fatty jeans.

@TonyWhat Susan said

Dad should give the kid one of his henways to play with…

Actually, I do have skinny jeans. They are in a box at the top of the closet waiting to see if I ever get back to that place.

One of my favorite strips is “Emmy Lou”, but it seems to have been weeks since the strip was updated.

I avoid wearing jeans unless I absolutely have to. And generally, if I can’t wear khaki shorts, it’s fancy enough I have to wear real khakis. So no jeans, skinny or otherwise.

Check out todays WUMO for a comment on skinny jeans, but warning! Spiders are not insects.

I’m going with JPuzzleWhiz on this.

And, while we’re on the subject of JPuzzleWhiz, my answer to question 2 is…

Because I can!

@Tony – fat legs means NO skinny jeans. I don’t want to show up in People of Wal-Mart.

Gotcha there.
