Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for May 26, 2020

that was stupid of the cop to ask

Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer. Literally in this case LOL

@Number Three Today’s strip IS funny , when our HERO Mr Andrew Capp is sober , he put down the wise guy copper not too gently implying that the cop is not old , just stupid :o) my avatar is of a statement of how you only think up a counter 10 minutes after your conversation ended , I hate it when that happens , don’t you? how was your day in partial liberty from quarantine? our day should be very busy but calm I hope with face masks and six foot poles to keep our social distance :o{ , stay safe and start commenting again when you feel like it pal

A left-handed compliment, perhaps?

No CCTV no fowl

That was an easy cop-out for Andy! :D

Old age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill, Andy…

He’s not old, but that joke is.

The Hartlepool constabulary was never noted for their superior intelligence, but it doesn’t take a stable genius to recognize who the miscreant is when Andy Capp’s around.

Second opinion. You’re also ugly.

Would have? Not was? That cast doubt on the situation. Had you been there, you would have been brawling. Well, duh.

“There’s where you’re wrong, Mister Clever! And here’s the broken pint glass from The Jolly Riveter to prove it!”

Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.
