I married. The wife quit her job and we lived on my income. We divorced. I married a second time. The wife quit her job and we lived on my income. We divorced. I married a third time. Yep. The wife quit her job. But, this time I married one with an IRA to live on.
I don’t why Schroeder should have any expression other than an eye-roll. It’s not as if he actually likes her. There are countless strips where he explicitly states that he despises her and wouldn’t marry her unless she was the last girl on Earth. (Yes, I wrote “unless” – that’s the joke in one strip.)

Speaking of grammar… did you notice Lucy’s mistake in Panel 4: “I’ll needs lots of jewelry…”I’m surprised no one caught that after all these years.

It’s possible to communicate without being profane, obscene or inflammatory these days? Who knew?

According to those cost of living calculators – that $100K house in ’67 would cost $687K today.

Lucy probably thinks Schroeder will be rolling in the dough, and she won’t have to do anything for a living.
