From the salmon-colored sofa that is the center of the Arlo & Janis universe, this unique and quixotic comic strip has been just about everywhere. From unvarnished human drama to flights of unfettered comic fantasy, from unabashed pathos to unsurpassed observational wit, Arlo & Janis is perhaps the most unpigenholeable comic strip ever. It also invents new words!
The characters Arlo and Janis have played the parts of mermaids, squirrels, alligators and grasshoppers over the years, all while exploring the unexaggerated human condition and managing to become, with their son Gene, perhaps the most believable family in the funny pages. This unique approach has garnered Arlo & Janis an intelligent and engaged readership and guaranteed that a percentage of it will be confused at any given moment. However, readers eagerly return every day for another quaff from what has been the holy grail for a generation of comic-strip authors: quintessential Boomer humor.

If someone’s calling Glenn, he’s down in the Glynn.

I, too, wear orange on St. Patrick’s Day. However, my reason is to celebrate my Irish heritage.
The reason for the three colors on the Irish flag is that orange (from the House of Orange) is for Protestants, green is for Catholics and white is for hope of peace between the two.

I’ve always considered the term “Fighting Irish” to be the ultimate redundancy.

Not all people of Irish descent are argumentative or like a bit of rye or barley on occasion!!!

Why do you guys always look for reasons not to marry? There are a lot of good things about being married, especially to the right person. It’s not a prison sentence. And as comic strip characters go, Arlo and Janis have a really good relationship.

Thank you for that bit of information. My daughter likes to wear green because it’s tradition and her birthday but we are not Catholic.
