For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for September 23, 2019

oh, El’s going to be so embarrassed after opening the door

Geez, Elly, just have John install a dog door. Ever heard of them? And John? You could have used the garage instead. Just click garage door open, grab grocery bags, close doors and lock then walk into the garage to the kitchen then press the garage opener to close. Simple. Unless Canada homes don’t have garages or garage openers? My old house did not have garage – just carport with carport door so I had to open the carport door first before going back to the car to pick up grocery bags so I love the garage door at my current home. Just ONE trip. Click open, grab all bags, remote lock the car, walk through garage to the kitchen door, press door opener to close. Done.

Are we sure this is John? He has bought groceries. He is pooping oranges. There’s a lot going on that is not normal John behaviour.

So Jon has claws on his shoes to sound like a dog.

I’m old enough to remember neighborhood markets before supermarkets came to be. Poor John!

I would bet there is a law in comics land that every grocery bag has a loaf of French bread in it (no bap/wrapper).

Kind of early for X-Mas decorations!

And what would you do if nobody was home? Sit the bag down, unlock the door, open it, and pick up the bag and go in. That’s what my wife says.

Why did he get grocery bags without handles?

He is being nice. I would kick the door. Not ‘nice’, that.

So I’m at a loss here mr. John. Why don’t you just speak up or use the doorbell? If the doorbell broke well then fix it but you do have a voice.

I am seeing a very considerate husband here who has done the grocery shopping for his pregnant wife. Kudos, John (and Lynn).

Why doesn’t he do like everyone in my little patch of paradise does? Whistle & shout!

You do realize these comics are all old and they were done before garage door openers were popular and the push button key fobs weren’t invented yet? These are all repeats.
