For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for November 20, 2024

Clearly this strip was not updated. Nobody writes checks anymore these days except perhaps the older generation, the Baby Boomers. If Liz were to pay her parents her rent and utility bill portion, she’d likely be transferring funds from her bank account to a Zelle or Venmo to wire the money or directly into their bank account if she banks with the same banker. Currently I am living in a rental and I Zelle to my landlord. When we had our own house before we sold it, we wired payments directly from our bank account to the mortgage company through their website. I have to say I am glad to be done with checkbooks. They were PIA.

The best thing that happen to me. 18YRS. old pay room and board or get out and join the service ( Navy ) !

In the last panel, Elly resembles those lazy characters from other strips, whose eyes are never seen: Beetle Bailey, Chip Flagston, Jeremy Duncan… :-D

All people should go to college and go out more, no one should stay home because right now even single young people in the 21th century are staying home and spending time on the internet.

Talk about proper motivation.

You think college is expensive now… Just wait…

Five children and never paid a single dime. Because higher education is free.

I rarely write a check anymore, and I am a boomer!
