For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for February 25, 2019

Yeah. I said they would walk home and here they are, walking home to her door. Yep, people. Some people still use their legs to travel.

It looks like Gordon put his foot in it again. Allyson gives Gordon the over-the-shoulder, looking up into his eyes “Goodnight” with 5 hearts around it. Now’s your chance, Gordon. She just gave you the signal. Why doesn’t Gordon go for the kiss?:

1. Allyson just vomited a little while ago. Who wants to put their mouth on those vomit lips? Duh!

2. Gordon is offended by the way she put together the words “good” and “night” in one word “goodnight.”

3, Gordon’s hands are comfortable in his jacket and they don’t want to be bothered by having to reach for some girl.

4. Gordon has spotted the 6870 on the door and is briefly distracted by the idea that those numbers might mean something to Lynn Johnston.

5. Gordon’s desire to destroy potted plants has gotten in the way of his romantic desires once again.

speaking of dumb things, Gordon

At least Allyson didn’t see it…

A pretty smile, a sweet “goodnight” and in seconds a man’s brain turns from living nerve cells to Playdoh. Isn’t life wonderful?

She shouldn’t bat those eyes like that.

Aw…..Gordon was such a gentleman! Kudos!!!

haha, great ending. She does the full “flirty goodnight” thing, Gord acts a bit nervous but noble… and then we get the joke ending :).

I would commend Gordon for letting his good deed speak for himself. He didn’t give in to his feelings and try to take things too far! Very nice!

I’m calling it now, she’s not going to remember this when the alcohol wears off

It’s time for him to mount his steed and return home.

she said the proper stupid vs. the guys stoopid.

well, he stepped in it now

PUT HIS FOOT IN THE FLOWER POT.

They took a taxi. Note the sign between them in the first panel.

You think you got a problem, Gordon. Allyson’s parents are probably right now asking her why she smells like that.

Gordon can generally be counted upon to do the right thing.

Well done Gordon. Whether it turns out well or not, you did the right thing. Period. Well, the flower pot may have issue with you, but that’s not the point.

Some advice for Gordon and Allyson, if the two of you have kids, and one of them, when he is eight years old, accidentally sets the living room rug on fire….

You know, she acts like she really likes Gordon after he took care of here (notice the hearts), but then she just goes back to pretty much ignoring him again after that.

A quick light kiss on the forehead would do it. Somehow that turns women to mush.

If I recall correctly, the other day, she said that what she drank “tasted like paint thinner”. How would she know??

Gordon May look stupid act stupid however he the most caring And the brightest one of them all

Ahh, Thus Endeth Another Day…

She won’t say a word to him as school later.

Gordon – you’re a sweet guy. One of the nice guys. Wish I’d met someone like you in my younger days.

Well, you looked good with the lady, you did the right thing and I don’t think she saw you put your foot in the pot, so we can say everything went well!
