Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for November 04, 2022

HA! I’ll have to try that next time.

If you want to confuse it, tell it you want 190.00. Then it starts asking questions about denominations.

An old joke, still funny. ☺

I remember standing with a friend when ATMs were first starting and one of the options was 5s. He was getting $200 and I quickly pushed the 5 button before he could stop me. He wasn’t too happy trying to force 40 $5 into his wallet . . .

This is not the first time a betting phrase I’ve never heard of has come up in this strip. The author must spend a lot more time in casinos than I do (admittedly not hard).

In this case, it’s lucky that you’re solvent

I love the people ahead of me who are doing multimillion dollar transactions! They must be as they are pressing buttons like they were playing a piano. I feel lowly as I only need to punch in 5 or 6 and done in a couple of minutes.

Who uses cash anymore, let alone carries that much?

I remember when your ATM choices were $5s and $10s, then $10s and $20s, then all $20s. About then I more or less stopped using cash.

Arlo thinks the ATM is a slot machine?

I hate when it gives a 100 bill. Kind of hard to haggle at a yard sale for something you only want to pay $9 for.

And he didn’t even break even, had to pay the service fee.

That is a bad idea, to yell out Jackpot and wave his large amount of cash around. Crooks hang out around ATM waiting for people like him.

Once, in the early days of ATM’s, one machine told me I had $500,000 in my account. I thought about spending the rest of the day draining the account, but guessed I’d never get away with it…

Odds are pretty good on those machines…..

Put $1,000 on 17 black. Or izzit red?

Why, yes! Yes it is.
