Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for March 25, 2020

Viva L’amor!

Rewards for both.

Just think how happy those dishes are now.

Fewer demands without dishpan hands, Arlo.

Happy wife, happy life.

Waking up to a sink full of dirty dishes is a real mood killer.

Sweet memories. :’(

A plea bargain!

Do the dishes, then do the dish.

I think panel 3 is a great way to support her while doing the dishes.

an unfinished chore often still plays in the back of a woman’s mind, even if she leaves the dishes until later. Go ahead and finish the chore. She will thank you later.

Perhaps a little saltpeter in his after-dinner coffee? (Yes, I know.)

keep your 6 foot social distance!!!!!

The Double Meaning Hug.

Ummm… Men are from Eros – Women are from Merry Maids???

If only she said “…finish the dishes first?” I wonder what the panel 4 caption would have been?

he could offer to help

Arlo is smart; give a little-get a Little later on.

You know, there seems to be a number of these comics you keep doing that are actually done here in my life. You have a camera in my house?

Ca ne va pas comme ca!

We’re washing up after dinner and you wanna start makin’ bacon? :-O

Anticipation of things to come! Great aphrodisiac!

A good compromise to speed things up.

No dessert before dinner’s finished.

If they did leave the dishes now, Janis would be the one cleaning them later while Arlo was sleeping.

Dishes first, oolala later darling.

Vodiododoing will have to wait…..

“Leave the dishes in the sink, Ma, / Leave the dishes in the sink. / Each dirty plate will have to wait, / Now it’s time to celebrate, / Leave the dishes in the sink!” – Spike Jones (of course, in this case the suggested form of frolicking had happened long enough before to produce a WWII sergeant and for him to come home)

This strip needs one more frame. Oh well, Finish the dishes. viva la tally ho.
