You’d think a woman who could be bothered to make homemade waffles with a waffle iron could wash some silverware or Earl could do it himself (a novel thought!) I will not eat frozen waffles either. Once you’ve made them from scratch you never want those sorry frozen ones again.
I agree with most of the comments. Panal 2 should have read “I guess I’ll just have to wash a couple so we can have our waffles.” Then, when she looked at Earl, it would have made more sense. My kids, who have never had to handwash a dish in their lives (my son does now), know that if there is no clean silverware, wash them by hand.
Yeah, I should have but I was grouchy and trying to make a point to those people out there, who lack any humor or originality, and can only criticize other’s spelling or grammar, instead of participating in the interchange of commentary on ideas.
Reminds me of the comedian who observed that a bachelor won’t wash anything until it’s all in the sink: “I came to this conclusion this morning while I was eating Froot Loops out of a Bundt pan — with measuring spoons — chasing that last froot loop around the milk moat.”
She couldn’t just take a knife and fork out of the dishwasher and wash them manually? Is this cartoon implying people with dishwashers are really that useless??

And Opal can eat her waffle with those sharp tweezers she keeps in her purse. There’s an adventure to add to your book, Earl!

Here’s an idea, Opal: just hand wash some of that silverware.

Ditto — wash a few, dearie! I do it all the time… Or you could just food-trough it.

Now I want waffles! And I even have clean silverware! (can’t be bothered to make them though – and no I don’t do frozen waffles ;) )

It’s called handwashing. Pull a couple of forks out and scrub them!

It only takes a moment to wash a couple forks by hand, you know.

Why wash em? It’s just the two of them, pick out 2 of the cleaner looking ones, and have at it.
