Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for August 12, 2023

Darryl maybe you also need some suspenders.

We just saw this joke in another strip a couple of days ago, but I can’t remember where. Allen made the same comment then.

That was Thursday’s joke in Pickles.

Darryl loose a little around the middle at the block party doing the 3 leg race?

He was the talk of the town.

luckily he wasn’t going commando today

Darryl, look at the bright side. You may have lost some weight, though you probably didn’t need to, but most people are happy to have lost a few pounds.

“What goes up, must come down”!

Hammie thinks it’s funny, Zoe too!

“I see London I see France, I see Darryl’s underpants”!

A belt does help.

I wear suspenders, more secure than a belt.

‘Dad’ Cargo shorts. With a belt, AND suspenders.

Being right handed, I used to carry everything in my right side pockets. Started to notice I was leaning left to compensate for the weight so started balancing everything out right and left. Never lost my pants though, but then i use a belt.

Little early for Grandpa pants, Darryl…

( ლ‸ლ)

And then zip up your pants.

Fat wallets in a hip/back pocket have been known to trigger some seriously painful sciatica and /or back pain. Thin it out!

I wish I had that problem.

Love the kids’ reactions AND Wandas! :-)

Most definitely, Daryl!

I predict, that in the future, you will have your money and keys in your phone! And even more things, like camera, stereo and even television set. Think of it like a center for communication!

Remember where you read it first!

Thus we have seen one and true differences between women and men as they age. When women get older their @ss gets bigger, when men get older their @ss disappears. Women buy stretch pants and underwire bras, men buy belts and/or suspenders.

Phone, wallet, keys, yeah

I put a credit card holder on my phone and havent used a wallet in 6 months.

You would think it’d be obvious that a belt is needed from the moment those pants were put on.

Since he’s married AND a father of three, we ALL know his wallet is not the culprit in the extra weight causing the “embarrassment” SO my guess would be an excess of keys (though my first “cellular” telephone weighed several pounds, that was years ago) …

Cover that fanny and get a fanny pack!

Of all the things I’ve lost while growing older, I miss my glutes the most. It’s a dickens of a time trying to get pants to stay up.

I put my belt on the pants or shorts the night before.

Same thing yesterday..see Free Range.

He’s used to it, got pantsed a lot in school…

His jockey shorts look more like an adult diaper than underwear.

to the tune of the kids song head and shoulders knees and toes adults sing: glasses, wallet, keys, and phone… and a belt

Wren!

That’s one of the reasons my dad liked to wear denim overalls.

Start buying chest highs

Can we talk about Wren’s little arm bent on her knee? Adorable

Wren’s wondering how Daddy’s pants got to be shorter than her.

Haha! XD
