Julie Larson began writing The Dinette Set comic in 1990, then called Suburban Torture, offering a satire on middle class culture. The Dinette Set became syndicated in 1997. When asked where Julie gets all of her ideas, she admits there is only one way to write a daily comic: write about what you know. "I make no bones about who’s really talking in The Dinette Set," says Julie, who is writer, director and cast of The Dinette Set. "If we can’t make fun of ourselves, who will?"

Timmy must be referring to the lilac floral arrangement on the toilet tank. What else?

Regarding air fresheners, give me a break right here! No offense if you use them but..
What do the people who use air fresheners think is going on? Air fresheners introduce oil into the air of their home. It coats everything and collects dust that is difficult to clean. It turns dark and grimy.
Then, as the rancid oil collects, the ‘fragrances’ ‘blend’ into an odor reminiscent of the U-Store-It storage unit in which Jerry got to second base with Verla on a hot summer mid afternoon date.

It’s elevator music for the nose!

I SO wish I had a “LIKE” button for this remark – ‘elevator music for the nose’ – genius.

Toenails, I didn’t know that about air freshener. Makes sense. That poor room. The “scent” of every event lingers on forever and you can’t get rid of it. The answer to Timmy’s question is “Life.”
And the smell of Jerry and Verla’s lovemaking in a hot storage room is too much to imagine. There’s something very Tennessee Williams about that idea.

The odors from that bathroom have been known to make spies talk.

Marlene and Dale both look like their wigs are strangely loose, even though they don’t wear wigs….
I mean, let’s get real…. if you wore a wig…. would you pick their hair?
Then again… Jerry buys that mop.
Probably gets a deal from one of those catalogs….
" Any Dynel © wig on this page only $9.99!"
So of course he picks the one with the most “hair” to make sure he gets his money’s worth.

Yeah, Leaky….
I’m totally worried about that.
Cos if I’m pregnant right now…
let’s just say I have no idea…
…OK., no, let’s not go there.

And Leaky…
I’m a little worried about YOU, too….
Unless you know some deep dark Crustwood secrets….
and aren’t keeping them very well….
Cos yesterday you posted
“I find it very strange that Marlene & Jerry are going to be gone at exactly the same time Marg & Don are going away.”
So not only are you implicating Marg and Don….
but really????
Marlene is going away with Jerry??
Isn’t Dale bad enough??
