If Mohammed won’t go to the mountain, take the mountain to Mohammed.
I see no reason why Gladys can’t meet Brutus half way, take the pickle jar to him, and then bat her eyelashes at him. Don’t be too hard on yourself Gladys, Brutus’ eyesight isn’t as good as it used to be.
That was then; this is now. However, in Brutus’s defense, if you’re in the middle of a project that requires attention, you just can’t get up for a job that can be done a little later.He might still do it if she brings the jar to him though…..

I bet you were a knock out, Brutus is so lucky to have been the lucky winner. COUGH COUGH

Blonde never has this problem. Dagwood always has a pickle jar at the ready for any sandwich emergency.
SWCarter about 1 year ago
Gladys just needs to tell Brutus that she needs the pickle jar open so she can make him a sandwich. That’s what works on Dagwood anyway.

Now you need a bat and a lash to get him to help.

Yeah those days are but fond memories Gladys. And they won’t come back.

A few lashes with a bat might change his mind.

Gladys, Brutus would likely still come running if you batted your lashes if he didn’t have to open a jar of pickles…
Jeffin Premium Member about 1 year ago
Time to bat his lashes.

Now an ordinary baseball bat is required

Now, he’s taking the pickles for granted.

Coincidentally, the next comic coming up on my list of favorites is “Pickles”.

if you use a spoon to pry under the lip of the pickle jar lid until you hear it hiss the lid will come off easily
Lola85 Premium Member about 1 year ago
Strangely, this seems a bit out of character for Brutus. He must be having a bad day.
MuddyUSA Premium Member about 1 year ago
Her batting eye lashes days are over……..

preacherman Premium Member about 1 year ago
Well, Gladys, I’m a man and would probably have to use a V shaped tool to open a jar.

Maybe if you put in the form of a threat, “Either open the pickle jar or I cook!”.

He doesn’t want to admit he can do it anymore.

Brutus – don’t get upset when there are no pickles on the table for lunch/dinner. Gladys – learn to open your own jars. Times have changed.

That bat of Gladys hit a home run, then…

Put the lid under running hot water, and it will open easily.

Sure, but then his get-up and go was spontaneous. Now, getting it up requires scheduling and medicine.

refuse to open a jar of pickles right away? brutus has got to be pickled…

Hot water softens the goop that has glued the lid on and decreases the vacuum under the lid.

That must have been 40 pounds ago.
