The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 06, 2021

Quick! check for a pulse.

Happens to me too, since I retired. I was “reborn”, word that’s the meaning of my name.

Wait til your sister shows up…..she’s a pain.

If only.

Okie dokie!! Now the question is — does he need a doctor or an undertaker?!!

/SHNARK/

Enjoy the day Uncle. At your age, painless days don’t come a long too often.;-D

My grandmother used to say ‘everything hurts, and what doesn’t hurt doesn’t work’.

Don’t worry, Uncle Ted, I’m Googling ‘loss of sense of pain!’

that’s rare for me. And I ain’t old enough to have aches and pains or at least according to mom.

Aches and pains start with marriage and get worse with age…

this requires a bit too much suspension of disbelief…

Sometimes I wish I was a polygamist and could marry my aches. Then I’d file for a divorce to get rid of them.

If you don’t feel any pain at this age, old fellow, it may be too late for penicillin.

Kvetch…..

While a very unusual symptom, you don’t need to see the Doctor for that…..

It must be the start of the end. . .or just a lucky day.

that would definitely worry me. …it’s like when I’m in bed at night and DON’T hear traffic on the boulevard.

Well, it looks like Uncle Ted got up on the right side of the bed this morning.

That’s never a good sign. Head to the hospital now to avoid the rush.

Quick, call the paramedics.

Nothing aches? Obviously, Mother Gargle must not be nearby.

cue the ominous music

Hmm yes, VERY serious.

If you have to feel different, that’s the best way in which to feel it.

Don’t know whether this has been asked before, but does Uncle Ted live with them, or is he just a frequent visitor like Mother Gargle?
