Dog Eat Doug by Brian AndersonAbout The Dinette Set
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?"

Fitting name for the waiter

Every so often Burl’s the sensible one. I think Julie likes to spread it around.

What should they expect at a place that has a somewhat common meal as its special?

What’s funny to me (and maybe people are already referring to this) is that Burl tells Joy to go ahead and switch them, now that he has an excuse not to leave a tip. He doesn’t want to let the waiter switch them.

At least they didn’t make them take them back to the kitchen to switch the spuds. NEVER insult the person preparing or serving your food. Unless you like Floor Spice.

or, don’t bother coming back.
