Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for November 03, 2021

In real life, his knees would be buckling.

And stores too.

I rock that outfit every Saturday afternoon!

Hey, plastic bags are now banned in all grocery stores & supermarkets!!

That could get him arrested.

Looks like a bulb of Garlic. I bet vampires would avoid him.

Mediterranean and Asian chefs would embrace him.

Gordon Ramsey would smash him with the flat of his chef’s knife.

Bulb man.

And also can be called garlic

Looks like the arch nemesis of Count Dracula — Giant Garlic Man.

Hoarding?

I did that until my fifties

Not that I’m too old now, I just don’t feel the need to show off anymore

It’s call the “bulb of garlic” carry on!

Dang….someone stole my look – - but I use re-useable bags, and they are multicolor – makes things festive! lol

He looks like a garlic bulb.

This is what my Mom called “the lazy man’s load” when we kids helped carry grocery bags from car to kitchen. More weight per trip, but fewer trips.

When you forget your bags and are too cheap to pay for one.

At first I thought he was a clove of garlic.

And you might even get out of the store without paying.

Never have to worry about smelling somebody else in an elevator.

Alternate caption #2, much worse than a fart joke:

Worst marketing test ever:

The two week colonoscopy bag.

Or shoplifting 101.

With reusable bags.

Or the “Artemis of Ephesus” model?

Best impulse purchase I ever made… 2 grocery carabiners (search on Google for pictures). Makes a week’s worth a relatively easy haul.

this is for 9 Chickweed Lane So Mr. Brook nice try but nah the correct term for three pence in England is thrupence otherwise love your strip

Glad that was explained—I was going for Garlic shirt—something like Seinfeld’s puffy sleeve shirt!

Garlic clove.

Hmm. If you can fit all that in the car, it might work!

Wow! Finally useful clothing!

Makes more sense and is more stylish than most.Reminds me of a bunch of bok choy
