Pickles by Brian Crane for November 27, 2017

She was probably talking to the dog…

Earl, don’t you know a little dab will do you.

“Brylcreem—A Little Dab’ll Do Ya! Brylcreem—You’ll look so debonair. Brylcreem—The gals’ll all pursue ya; they’ll love to run their fingers through your hair!”

You have to have hair to dab.

I don’t just think Earl’s hair looks nice. I think BOTH his hairs look nice.

Didn’t we do this Brylcream bit on another strip, last week ?

Hair.. can be singular, so she could have been complimenting Earls hair

Still using that greasy kid’s stuff?

I hope my hair doesn’t thin out when I get old. I have a lovely full head of hair.

I’m not showing off, I’m stating a fact.

A little dab will do ya

Dad used Brylcreem for decades. He’s still waiting for the blond to come out of the end of the tube. (Remember the commercials from a few decades back?)

My wife often suspects that Brian has a bug under our house and gets all his ideas from what he hears.

Butch!
