Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for June 13, 2023

“Okay, lady, here ya go! In the words of the Fonz, sit on it!”

Where’s Frank Nelson as the Sarcastic Salesperson when you need him?

As Crank would say, but I only sit one way.

Salesman hears: Cha-ching, cha-ching!

And wonders how much he can take this old lady for.

Have you been licensed to operate that chair?

Aren’t we all?

But this superb deluxe model is on sale for only $1,300!

On garbage day I often see chairs like that beside the curb. They are perfect for a deer stand, because you can sit comfortable for hours, and turn around without making a sound.

Salesman….way out of touch with customer!

Then buy a folding chair.

“May I interest you in a bar stool?”

If all she wants is something to sit on, then what’s wrong with the chair that she’s been sitting on, all these years?

I am always far too short to fit in those chairs.

And it’s also good for having your teeth pulled.

Once you get those 147 adjustments just right for you it becomes comfortable enough to spend the day. It’s finding the right chair that’s the pain in the b…ack

You may have to explain the word “ergonomically” to her, sir…!

Does anybody remember the good old days when Loathsome Lillian was a mere supporting character? When her main purpose was to scowl disapprovingly at Crankshaft’s latest shenanigans?

Yeah why do they need to make something simple complicated?
