Mother Goose and Grimm by Mike Peters for January 17, 2024

You can never win.

A “left-handed” compliment.

You are still very perceptive and quite lifelike for someone as old and wrinkly as what you are.

As Frank Crumit observed, many years ago: “Nowadays we often gaze On women over fiftyWithout the slightest trace Of wrinkles on their face. Doctors go and take their dough To make them young and nifty. But Doctors I defy To tell me just why. No matter how young a prune may be It’s always full of wrinkles.”

ba dum tss

Well, my doggie would probably say, you may be old, but you’re beautiful to me.

This comic makes me giggle every day!

So original!

Well, Grimm makes a pretty good point, Mother Goose.

I smack-a you face!

I EARNED each and every wrinkle I have. I am going to wear them with pride. As much as a soldier would wear ribbons on his chest – proof that I have survived so long.

And honest.

I heard the same joke from Ron White.
