I’m in FL, and in my back yard is an ant place that moves quite often. The hole into their nest is over 2". It’s not even a hill it’s just a big hole that ants clock in and out of. I have no idea how they make a living. There’s nothing here?

Was you anticipating sometheeng else?

Nothing’s ever too small for you to complain about, is it?

No, it ant.

In my day, chores were required to earn the allowance. Though, now, an allowance can be treated as a tool to teach money management. In my day, we learned that too, and the value of hard work.

Typical Liberal. Wants something for nothing from someone who works to earn theirs.

He never wants to trade. He just wants.

All my friends were getting an allowance so I begged my father for one too. “How much do you want?” he asked. “A quarter a week!” “Ok” he says. Up to then I was getting 5 cents a DAY. Dumb or what?

trying to make it a transactional thing, tisk tisk tisk

Don’t know what ants do for a living, but they manage to show up at picnics every time.

You want an allowance, you need to work for it. TANSTAAFL.

Here’s a nickel, don’t spend it all in one place.

“Whatsa matter?! Can’t ya get ’em done, yourself?!”

He’s going to be living in his parent’s basement until he’s 30 (in ant years)

Never got an allowance- – always did chores.

Next panel: “We provide you a place to live, and now you want an allowance, too? Nothing’s ever enough for you, is it?”

The answer to both his questions is, “Nope”.
