Rick should have taken the train.

The End of Men came earlier for some.

We asked for it . . . equality . . . ack!!!!

Write for a living. they’ll call you the bread crumb winner.

unless you kill someone or go nuts orr star in a couple cheesy movies.

Men complain about women sucking them dry financially, but you never hear them say it happens to women, too. He’s been living on her gravy-train waaaaaaaay too long.

Some more for equal rights.

Shalom Aleikam. Since you won’t be posting tomorrow, have an easy fast.

Where are they on their way to?

Do I detect a small note of bitterness from Joanie… ?

“He’s emasculated himself 31 year? Joanie must be a remarkable woman not to complain about that.”

As old as she’s gotten Susan, Rick could unemasculate himself by breaking for somebody younger.

I don’t know how much much Joannie was earning as a political operative but Rick shouldn’t have been too bad off. In 2008, the year Rick was layed off, a copy editor at the Washington Post earned $167,000 per annum. It is safe to assume Rick’s salary, with his years of experience, was close to that range.

the viciousness of “worth” and “maleness” defined by being the “breadwinner”. no money equals no worth in our society, ouch

יהי בצום יום הכיפורים להביא מזון הנפש שלך.May the fasting of Yom Kippur bring food to your soul,

She is a lawyer, but she has worked mostly in government. She worked for the Justice Department and then for Congresswoman Lacey Davenport. Now she is working for the Elizabeth Warren campaign.

Also, thanks for your “31 years” comment I’d read “1961” in Joanie’s last comment, but after enlarging the picture, I see that the date is 1981.@Jack StrawAs leftwing intimated above, the group is on the way to assist Elizabeth Warren in her campaign.EVERYBODY:Recently I read an article that speaks to the unemployed husband/employed wife in a readable form:http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/02/magazine/who-wears-the-pants-in-this-economy.html?pagewanted=all&_moc.semityn.www

i admit to some discomfort at the direction this plot line is taking.

As always, all the best on these Holiest of Days.As for the trolls, evil never sleeps.

Poor Sarge. One step forward and two steps back. Earlier you appear to realize that liberals aren’t Marxists or utopian socialists, but capitalists who like money, just like the conservatives do. A little more bumping into hard reality and you would realize that there is no real difference between Obama and Romney. But now you’ve lapsed into the view that anyone who disagrees with your own, tiny worldview is a Stalinist. You need to expand your horizons. There are more things in heaven and earth, Sarge, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

But he is still wearing a tie. That shows pride in oneself.

My daughter’s live in boyfriend… is living off of my daughter going on 3 years now. She says he’s ‘challenged’ and is looking for a managerial position… like on National Lampoon’s Family Christmas… UGH… L is for LOOSER

The Hell’s Angels were the original one percenters. A lot of those guys had “Born Too Loose” tattoos back in the day.

SkepticCal said, 26 minutes agoI feel so much safer now that there is a black muslim in the White House.

Wow, really? You feel the need to post this numerous times to numerous comics in a 24 hour period?

You should really listen to your doctor and take those meds… they melt in your brain, not in your hand (and the voices go away!).

Just quoting the lovely Madonna.

Ah, must be on her “Like a Moron” tour? Attribution of one’s source(s) is important…
