Pickles by Brian Crane for July 17, 2021

Earl you ever hear of a dictionary.

What next…“Honey bum”?

Time to get a card that’s been proofread by a greeting card company.

Don’t forget, you married him for his hot bod and romantic moves…or was it entertainment value??

Well angle face is better than sweaty pie.

Poor Earl is DOOMED!

The spirit is definitely trying, the glass prescription is weak though!

Big snaps for effort Earl

Problem with Earl is that he didn’t run away as Roscoe suggested he do!

Earl stop while you are ahead ! … sort of ;-)

Earl should quit before he makes it worse.

I’d better go buy some stock in the Hallmark card company!

Earl, how did you get out of grade school?

She’s acute angle but can be obtuse sometimes.

Like voice recognition on my phone, Messes a lot up!

Oh Earl, how obtuse.

I think she’s more of a cootie pie.

“Earl you ever hear of a dictionary.” Did you mean to post, “Earl, did you ever hear of a dictionary?” With a comma, a complete verb and a question mark. Being that correctionsare being posted. :)

Come on … ankle face would be worse … I guess.

Give him some slack. He still spells better than 90% of the people on the internet.

Is Earl a little dyslexic in his older age? My hubby has never been able to spell. I just read his notes phonetically. The thought is the same.

Frames one and three are missing someone ?

Cease and desist with the cards, Earl! Just tell her verbally…

At this rate, Earl, you might as well have Nelson write the cards for you!

Since her face is a ball, Opal should take it as a compliment.

GEEZUS, EARL! Just giver her a big hug and kiss. . .oh, right, you aren’t Jimbo. . .well, shake her had!

He’ll ‘worm’ his way into her heart. Eventually.

The home just keeps getting deeper.

Earl should join the ASD; the American Dyslexic Society.

Earl’s going through a rough spell.

I was going to suggest that he just write her name but, at the rate he’s going, he’d probably write “Alpo” instead of “Opal.”

Stick with the dollar store cards Earl

When I was in elementary school, we read about some typos, and subsequent corrections / apologies

“Battle Scared Veteran Returns Home” - “Bottle scared veteran”“…, a defective in the police force, …” - “… is a detective in the police farce.”

Obviously, Earl’s brain doesn’t have spellcheck.

You don’t need a spell checker, you need a GRAMMAR checker. lol

Earl is deliberately doing this. Opal is a mean and insulting wife. So its a bit of payback.

Obviously dyslexia. My co worker suffers from it, we know about and only occasionally make jokes about it. We always know who put away and labelled the order when the gummi worms are labelled wroms.

He needs the dog again

Spelling is not one of Earl’s talents?

1. Open mouth 2.insert foot!……..Again

He has troubles with his vowels, I can understand

Earl’s spelling is bad, Nelson could do better.

Change just one letter for 3 teams and you’d have the geometry league: Cubes, Lines, Angles.

Oh oh. This storyline is headed to a bad place.

I knew an Irish lady whose name was Angle… and she assured me that was how the Irish (some Irish?) spelled Angel…

JUST HAVE NELSON SPELL-CHECK YOUR WORK! Was it REALLY so hard, Earl?!?

Double check my spellchecker before sending, I do. Rarely, it does take me to a thesaurus (no not in the Jurassic Park library).

Greeting cards don’t come with spell check.

Quit while you’re behind, Earl. You’re only digging the hole deeper. :)

Nice tries, Earl, but give it up.

Earl go stand in the corner.

He needs tested for dyslexia…but why can’t she take it in the spirit it’s intended?! I would have laughed it off and thought it was cute.

Time for a dictionary….. or a stupid wife (LOL).

My wife knows about dictionaries, but, can’t spell the words well enough to find them there!

Run to the car Earl, then DRIVE!

I recall a letter in a Dear Abby column. The writer was a daughter who had written a letter to her parents. She had written “Dead Mom and Dad”. Of course it had been an honest typo. But her parents did not take it that way. They honestly believed that their daughter had wanted them dead. How can some people be so stupid?!

Your in the doghouse tonight.

Oh dear, stop digging.
