Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for November 20, 2024

…and it gets dark at night. Arlo, it is just that time of year.

Go wreck the bed.

Complain much ?

I remember reading about the end of the world in 2010 that it will happen in 2012 by a planet killing asteroid who remembers this news?

Stay silent and kiss Janis?

I think Janis can think of something.

Who watches linear TV anymore?

Here’s a suggestion. GET A LIFE. Find a hobby, read a book, go for a walk or bike ride, go to the gym, put in a firepit and sit around a fire. Play chess, checkers or another game.

Volunteer somewhere, read books to hospital or nursing home residents, cuddle babies in the hospital, if animals are your thing volunteer at a shelter, there are homeless shelters and food banks. This time of year we have Toys for Tots and Coats for Kids and the Salvation Army is begging for bell ringers

Janis got her hair colored?

I know what Arlo wants, and it’s simply because Janis is near him.

Do what they said in the 50’s, “Duck and cover”.

At least she won’t have any more kids…

time should be set to sunset at 7pm year-round not to early and not too late

Well, if the asteroid heads toward earth, then at least there will be something to watch on TV.

Just be glad you’re not in Utqiagvik (formerly Barrow) Alaska. They won’t see the sun again until Jan 22.

I’m thinking Arlo is looking for some canoodling.

We watch nothing but streaming TV. What is “on” is always what we want to watch.

A planet killing asteroid, in Earth orbit, behind the Sun, is of little concern so long as its velocity keeps it in that orbit. If it slows down or accelerates then we have a problem.

And my brain (and the dogs) refuses to accept PST. 3:30 am is way too early.

I think Arlo is a random thought generator.

Turn out all the lights and play hide and seek in your pj’s.

Forecast for tonight? Mostly dark with widely scattered light towards morning.

What is going on here? My parents like this comic bc they are old and say they can relate. Do I need to be in my 80s to understand the joke here?

I agree, that TV thing IS bad…..

It gets late early now. ;)

Turn on the Whoopie light

Panel 2 reminds me of the 1992 Bruce Springsteen song “57 Channels (and Nothing On)”. Little did we know.

There’s too Much on TV — makes it impossible to decide what to watch. (too many choices anywhere paralyzes decision-making)

Hmm. An invitation?

Read a good book?

Soooo – they are not moving to be near the kids?

“What?”

maybe she’ll take her top off.

Makes no sense to me. Too many of these lately.

That’s why I hate standard time…especially in the winter.
