The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for September 15, 2022

With what Brutus is paid you would get very little in alimony.

She might even have to get a job herself.

You both would be “visiting” – the homeless shelter, more often!!!

/SHMIRK/

Why don’t you mind your own business?

Gargoyle; It would be better to find out what she would do without you.

Well, for starters she might have to get a job,

Shut up witch before they put you back under that toad stool you came from

Evil witch.

I bet the old hags husband is so happy to be in his grave, I bet he’s still grinning!

PSA: Whoever pays the bills should have their SO do it occasionally so that they will know what to do without you.

They live a rich fantasy life, apparently.

Gladys and Wilburforce staying with “Mother” Gargoyle? CPS will be on them for child abuse. Plus I’d given “Mother” Gargoyle two weeks before she rethinks her position.

Oh great. Now you’ve driven Gladys to honesty.

She might move back in with Mother.

maybe… but why take the chance. :D

Mother Gargle, always a fount of optimism and unwavering support…

What would we do without your snide remarks you old battle axe? Go haunt a castle it’s that time of year.

Without Brutus you probably couldn’t appear in a comic called the Born Loser. Where would you be then? Hard to imagine. Maybe with your witch’s looks you might be able to make appearances in the comic Sabr1na the Teen Age W1tch.

Gladys’s coffee developed a small cloud after that announcement. I am fairly new to this comic, but it seems Mama is getting nastier. Maybe she needs to be “tested.”

What would Mama do? She mooching free food all the time. Does she live very close by?

You know Mama, I think you welcome here is wearing thin…….

Mother Gargoyle talks but fails to listen to what her daughter says, which is that she really loves that big lug Brutus. As do we all….

Well the comments escalated pretty quickly. Opened a big can of worms.

Poor Brutus Thornapple, stuck with Mother Gargle. Will his luck ever turn?

Mr. Gargoyle must’ve been an incredible man. He married, had a daughter, provided for Mama and daughter, died and left it all to Mama. And now Mama barely remembers him at all.

We will “miss” you mother Gargle.

Mother Gargoyle does…

We certainly know we could do without YOU.

The more pertinent question is “why don’t you go home?” The coffee is responding for Gladys.

Man! She even said that with a hint of a smile! How sharper than a serpents tooth it is to have a thankless MIL…. (With apologies to “Bill”)

I honestly don’t see why Gladys puts up with this. Most other woman would have disowned that not-very-nice woman (I’m watching my language right now) long ago!

always first with useful suggestions…

Let’s see, you don’t have a job and your daughter doesn’t either, so I’d say you’d be out on the street.

My mother-in-law treat me with respect, God rest her soul. It was 25 years ago, when she left us.
