Another close shave

wax on⠄⠄⠄wax off

They’re only “whiskers” if you can actually whisk with them.

You have to learn about certain sensitive subjects, Nelson!

Nelson inherited his overly-observant trait from his Grandpa.

He seems to be accumulating ‘trouble points’ as fast as his Grandpa has recently.

She’s just so picky

Spouse has a little thing the size of a big lipstick tube that makes a very small hum… and she just HUMS off her few whiskers. Every week or two, when she notices ’em.

Waxing and burning are also options.

In college, a young woman in the dining hall once made fun of my wispy mustache. I said, “I have to concede, yours is better than mine.” She had the gall to be insulted!

Those are not whiskers. They are stray eyebrows.

If she wants to have fun with Nelson, she could tell him if she doesn’t pluck them, they’ll grow into feathers.

Important Life lesson there Nelson!

One of the reasons to have separate bathrooms.

This kid should be told he’s presumptuous and mind his manners – however, this IS a cartoon and is different.

My Bride sits in front of a mirror with tweezers.

Geeeeeeee………… I wonder WHY

The 50s and 60s they used to pluck them.

Out of the mouths of babes……

Ha! That was a close shave.

She has a freakin’ screwdriver on the desk to look better ?

Touché’………

“Now go and get Grandma 1000 little rubber band so I can braid the hair on my legs.”

Kid, try a black ink marker to see her five o’clock shadow.

Strange. Give someone a genuine heart-felt compliment on their mustache and suddenly she’s not your friend any more.

Love my mini razor!

Had an older lady, when I worked at AT&T, that would set at the gate house and pluck almost all shift.

Perfection requires concentration.

How long has Earl not talked to Opal in that situation? Anyone want give an over-under for that?

As a kid, I remember not wanting to kiss my aunt “goodbye” because she had a “stache” aka mustache.
