For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for December 10, 2022

gee, Elizabeth Patterson, you’re really that clueless until it becomes crystal clear years later

Ahh, isn’t this nice nostalgia that Anthony can think of rescuing a damsel in distress from certain death like the Perils of Pauline, and it was considered romantic back then instead of the insult to women it is considered today during the women are just as strong and powerful as men movement.

My god, these young canadians are kinda mental…

I’m not going to repeat what I’ve saying for the past couple of days but yes, panel one is creepy as hell

Oh Anthony! Why did you start out so weird? Why did Lynn Johnston think her readers would want Elizabeth together with this guy?

Not you, Elizabeth. But Anthony, certainly..

“So tell me, Eddie… Is that a rabbit in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?” — Dolores, Who Framed Roger Rabbit

She would definitely need resuscitation…Go for it!

They need to consult Jim Davis. His characters communicate via thought.

Teen problems.

This guy has a future in writing romance novels

Sitting next to one another on bus benches rarely goes the way we hope it would.

Every step you take.

Every window you break.

Every greeting you fake.

Every dollar you make.

He’ll be watching you.

Oh don’t Canadians know

They belong to Trudeau.

They can laugh or frown.

But they are all property of the Crown.

Every step you take.

Every window you break.

Every greeting you fake.

Every dollar you make.

He’ll be watching you.

All that drama dude. Sheesh

I’ve known dense, but Elizabeth beats them all.

Mouth to mouth isn’t romantic. Kid should take a first aid course.

Like the song lyric say…. “Love the one you’re with”…

A very good imagination…

Elizabeth, his imagination is really brewing………

my husband was the clueless one. Everyone knew I was flirting with him – but him. After 6 weeks ( which is for-ev-er in college) I finally cornered him and hit him with the verbal 2X4. “Hi, I like you – um alot. Do you like me?” It killed me – a Southern girl – to have to be that direct/needy. A few days later we had our first day, 4 days after that he asked me to marry him — the rest is a wonderful life.

This is the last we’ll see of this pair for a while. The story line picks up again at the end of January and culminates just in time for Valentine’s Day.

So back to Lhetta and Rolne?

Asked the secret of his success with women Warren Beatty said, “I get my face slapped a lot.” That said I will take Anthony over Beatty.

Dream, dream, dream, dream

Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I want you in my arms

When I want you and all your charms

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night

And I need you to hold me tight

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Dream

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine

Anytime night or day

Only trouble is, gee whiz

I’m dreamin’ my life away

I need you so that I could die

I love you so and that is why

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Dream, dream, dream, dream

Dream

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine

Anytime night or day

Only trouble is, gee whiz

I’m dreamin’ my life away

I need you so that I could die

I love you so and that is why

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Dream, dream, dream, dream

Dream, dream, dream, dream

Not as good as Anthony.

Ahhh, that’s so cute!

Takes me back to my early teens and the crushes we talked about when we got together with our girlfriends. Two of my girlfriends had “steady” boyfriends by the time they finished the eighth grade, and they shared a lot of their experiences with us (especially what happened at the beach or when they went swimming together) …

What a great romance story he started.

SPOILER: lol and Anthony’s dreams of rescue finally came true in a future time… but he immediately started a self-important whine-fest immediately after, killing the moment XD

Go on, Anthony, give her a little peck on the cheek…

THE FUTURE—

“I never knew you could fight,Anthony”

“Neither did I!”

Cannot wait for Liz to get a clue!
