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?"

I’m surprised he doesn’t pretend to put in a quarter and filch a bill.

He actually is a bit ashamed to mention that.

And here I thought he wrapped double-sided tape round his fingers in church and fished out the money that way. Wow, what a big spender! He ‘tips’ the guy in church a whole two bits!

I dunno about biggest but I can tell you the best tip I give out:
Never eat anything at the Pennys’ house.

While talking to a friend we somehow got on the subject of cow tipping. He asked me if I would ever tip a cow. I told him as long as the service was good, how she looked has nothing to do with it.

Hadn’t thought of—or done—cow tipping since high school. Thanks for the remembrance. I can’t believe we were allowed to live, doing the stupid things we did.

Ah yes, the old double side tape trick. That and switching the fives with ones.

Boy, am I chapped! You just can’t rely on people or get good help these days. I was going to run in the Houston Marathon this morning and I asked my wife to wake me up in time, but she forgot. Dang!
And the guy I hired to train for me didn’t. Just took my money and sat around. How am I expected to get anything done with people like that?
Oh, by the way, while you’re up, would you get me a Grant’s?

Oboy I hdn’t thought about this in a long time, used to be a couple I sat next to in church, the husband would put in a dollar and his wife would take it out! My kids thought that was so funny!
