Last Kiss by John Lustig for September 11, 2024

Yes! Subtle doesn’t work! Didn’t then, doesn’t now. Be blunt.

I’m reminded a caption from a 1960’s Stan & Jan Berenstain comic “You’re what! And We have to what!”They did have a carrer before The Berenstain Bears.

Get the kids to rent the hall.

So she does all the talking, and he does all the running.

Now is the time for a restraining order, later a paternity test, and finally a good family court lawyer…

:)

I like the frame around this comic, John. The perfect Framing of the Shrew.

He’s thinking to himself , ( somewhat sluggishly) Why not hold a gun on me !

I worked as a Santa at an upscale mall last Christmas. One young lady (mid 20s maybe) came up, and asked if I could make sure her boyfriend proposed to her.

When she rented the Goodyear Blimp to fly over with her message during the Super Bowl — that should have settled the matter.

But he tells her affectionately, often post-coitus, “Someday when I’m ready to be married, I want to marry a girl just you.”

I won’t be subtle…that was GREAT!

he stands corrected!

Yesteryear brings a lot of memories back!

Some good and some not so much!

It was a different world.

You need to spell it out to us men, we’re kind of slow and we don’t want to do anything that would upset anyone.

“So I’ll ask you again! Will you divorce me?”

Are there still ‘illegitimate’ children?, ‘cause I hear from one set of partisan pols that there are no ’illegal’ aliens.

“You could have just asked! I’m not stupid.”

It took me about 5 tries before he said yes. He waited until Sadie Hawkins Day!

Ahhhh, the good old days – that never were.

Legitimate- illegitimate, does that matter anymore? Really old fashioned labels, a is child is a child.

I like the idea of a follow up in the modernized version. Nicely done.

Was at daughter’s wedding on Saturday, they have three kids. Often the way in Sweden.

Some guys only like the honeymoon idea…………….
