The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for March 31, 2022

So much for overtures, Brutus, but nice try. She does not want anything to be different.

I thought that was Gladys’s job.

Maybe mother Gargle has been on social media too much.

it’s what parents-in-law do to their least favorite child-in-law; they’ve got to be entertained somehow

And she so enjoys doing it.

Brutus: Why do you always have to disagree with everything I say?

Mother Gargle: I don’t always disagree with you! In fact I totally agree with what you said right now.

This is good news, Brutus! You’re not wrong. She’s just disagreeable.

I can’t wait to see how the talk about putting her in “a home” goes. Brutus should start with, I insist you stay right here with us.

I’ve been wrong so long, but tonight I’m right.

Except for Uncle Ted, just about everyone else does.

she’s agreed to be disagreeable…

So does his boss… I’m sure of it anyways. Maybe you should try something for her to agree with you on, just to confuse her. :D

He was evidently not her choice for marriage material for her daughter. Still, the match did bring Wilber into the world, a good boy who has respect for all his parents.

She is full of holy crap!

Why?

Whoa! Dead on. My own mother is what I call a “contrarian”. Even if you agree with her, adamantly agree with her, forcefully concede her point, you’re doing it for the wrong reason . :) :(

Ah. The Olive Branch was taken from Brutus’s hand and used to slap him across his face by the Wicked Witch of the West. Well done Evil Mother-in-law, well done indeed. Your place in the after life is in deed assured and definitely insured…..

My mother-in-law could have subbed for Gargoyle.

But neither of them will ever stop. She likes it. He can’t help it.

You would deprive here of such pleasures, how inconsiderate of you Brutus.

It’s a dirty job, but Mother has to do it.

Brutus there is only one way to handle Mother Gargle, put her on permanent ignore.

Brutus – Send Mother Gargle to Italy on 14 day vacation. Maybe she’ll meet some love life interest and stay. Maybe some deaf and blind, very lonely Italian man.

Uh-oh. A comic was either added or dropped. Now this is harder to find.

Count your blessings, Brutus! She could have replied, “Why not? Everyone else does!”

I thought her response was going to be “Because you’re always wrong, Brutus!”. : )

Just once I wish that Mother Gargle would do something with that hair!
