Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for April 20, 2017

procrastination must be the lad’s best buddy

Let’s see, today’s strip is 4/20 but the note is dated 3/2 so oops?

Tony asked, about 4 hours ago

Are you surprised?

Yeah, another retelling of an older strip….

Thanks, X…

(They both say 2017 now, I believe, but the other artwork is in their older style.)

This time it’s a different twist….

but almost nothing they mess up surprises me….

We discussed it back then, that many, maybe most, schools, depending upon where you live,

no longer allow home-made treats,

So if you do make or buy 40 cupcakes, Pete,

and you don’t need them all, cos the date is long gone or the school won’t accept them…..

I’ve got room in the breadbox for a dozen or so.

Thanks.

He must think dad is a cupcake.

Let him ask Mom and see!!!

And Tony, No I am not surprised!!!

I’m shocked, shocked to find that procrastination is going on in here!

No, I don’t have to bake or bring the cupcakes to class.

@Tony:

I’m at the age where almost nothing surprises me anymore…and it should come as no surprise to you all that it’s time for today’s…

Second “Daddy’s Home” Question:

What’s at the bottom of your book bag/backpack (if you have one)?

That shouldn’t be too time consuming. Two boxes of cake mix should be plenty. Each would make two dozen (maybe even a few extra) and that would be at least 48.

I am not surprised, nor am I shocked or amazed. And as to your question, Jpuzzlewhiz, at the bottom of my purse you are likely to find tissues in various states of decomposition.

Well, let’s see what happens if you don’t. And Tony, no I’m not surprised. This is the kind of thing I expect from this strip.
