The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 14, 2022

You ate it, moneybags.

Only a “seventy-Dollar” meal?!!! ’Ol money-bags must be slumming it!!!

/SHMIRK/

If you were expecting a tip from Mr Passive-aggressive, forget it.

In return, he’ll give a ten-cent tip.

70 bucks? that’s a bargain…

Only $70? Must be an old comic…

I bet, even for the individually wrapped ones, the restaurant pays a penny a piece.

So it’s not just Brutus that he’s nasty to.

And a bucket.

well, maybe try someplace cheaper then… I don’t know which, but there is someplace cheaper I’m sure.

One thin mint, Mr. Creosote.

Mr. V puts things into perspective.

Well, at the restaurants I frequent, you pay for the mints. But, of course, the food is tastier, the waiters are prettier, the dress code is easier and the meal doesn’t cost $70.

“Ten cent? Oh, ha, ha,ha, ha, this mint adds $5 to your bill!”

“Oh, well, all right, then…”

If.. I had a 70 dollar meal, the last thing I would want is to cleanse my palate, heck I wouldn’t even want to brush my teeth or floss for a day or so.. lest there be a few stray bits left to savor.

Vebblefesters kind of mint is the Denver Mint…

His response is over-the-top but usually the waiter doesn’t “announce” the mint.

Might’ve known he’d be appreciative.

That guy just lives to make friends…..

He is just a blinding ray of sunshine, wherever he goes.

Nothing is “FREE” Ever!

Complimentary loan application.

" I’ll have you know this mint cost a quarter! Show some respect!"
