It could be to the point where Liz has decided that Jon’s choice of style is something she can’t change. It is something I have observed with my own parents: You fight the fights you know you can change. If you know you can’t change it, you give up trying to fight it.
Jon’s style is a Hoosier Hick thing. Are their any other states where men wear black socks with shorts and sandals and white socks with suits? We once had a state Supreme Court Justice who wore white socks while hearing oral arguments.
If she gripes all the time about everything, she may wind up losing all the battles eventually. I guess at this particular time, she decided to give him this one.
Geez, Jon, at least let the tie and the pants match the jacket!!!!!
It’s painful to look at.

It’s bad when you can’t even trust your own pets around food.

So is this a sort of double date?

Garfield 246, I guess the joke is that Jon is protecting his ham.

Indeed. Evidently Liz hasn’t overcome Jon’s lack of taste in dress yet (for surely she hasn’t given up trying).

Garfield is probably stalking themright now.

Johanan: Maybe Liz has decided to let Jon keep dressing himself, if only out of curiosity.

frrykid, good observation. I hope she goes back to the fight though. It would make for a funnier comic.

Should never have mentioned it, Garfield!

Is that a ‘smoked ham’ that doesn’t need refrigeration?? Who leaves a ham out on the kitchen counter?
codycab about 14 years ago
Maybe Jon and Liz should just eat the ham.
