    And Pearl still loathes Earl as her brother-in-law.

    That was cruel. These two people are getting to be almost as bad as Andy Capp and his wife.

    I like how we’re left to imagine what would happen to Earl in Panel 5. BTW, Maggie and Jiggs are still going strong in reruns of vintage strips at Comics Kingdom.

    He sounds like Leroy Lockhorn. Well, Earl if you’ve been so unhappy why have you stayed with her for 50 years?

    Not funny! My husband and I usually think Brian is tapping into our lives as we stumble into old age. But, neither of us would have ever said something so hurtful.

    Most couples, over a long period of matrimony, develop a thick hide and a wicked sense of humor. Sarcasm and irony can be used as weapons in the domestic wars or they can be used as mutually deprecating humor.

    I don’t see this as a dark or disrespectful remark. Rather, it’s a flippant slip-of-the-tongue meant to to be funny, but bound to get Earl into trouble, for letting his mouth outrun his brain.

    The point is you’re in the doghouse, Earl.

    Earl is just joking like the way Archie Bunker joked around with Edith.

    Please, if you use words not quite Anglicized, be careful. Forte (no accent) is from the French, but pronounced and defined like fort, a strong point.

    .

    The word that would be pronounced as you spelled it (for-tay) comes from the Italian, does not have an accent, and exists in English mainly in music, where it means loud.
