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?"

You gotta really admire their steadfast determination…
Even if it IS a determination not to learn anything ever.
Well, Joy was trying….
but she’ll soon be taught the error of her ways.
Marg… you don’t take the Crustwood Gazette?
How about the Ballard Bugle?
I can get you a deal on a subscription…. I know the publishers.

Looks like there were (at least) two pinheads left over. Maybe the multiple universe theory has some more heft—at least in Burl’s case.
There appears to be at least 100,000 pinheads here in TX (and more across the Old South) who have forgotten the outcome of the recent “Great Unpleasantness.” Sometimes I wonder about the universe they inhabit even in this one.

Surely you and Mikie aren’t refering to the Super Patriots that bleed red, white and blue and wear flag lapel pins? You must be mistaken. They have flag decals and stickers on their cars also! You must be wrong!

Actually I’m with Burl and Dale on this one. Who cares. Life too short to worry about how it all began, at least for the average Joe.
