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?"

Pow! Great zinger, I’m surprised Burl had the presence of mind to deliver it.
I can’t remember the name of the fat blonde woman over there, though.

I think I would forget both their names just as fast as I possibly could.
Plus their address, phone number, physical appearance, traits and personalities.
And I’d try really hard to blot out the details of places and events where they were present.
That’s why my kitchen features hot and cold running Marg and Susan’s™ Ultra Super Strength Brain Bleach!

I’ve got some kind of wierd format with today’s comic. Your comments are arrainged in odd configurations, making it hard to read. STOP IT! Burl learned zingers from Ma!

2Old … I think the site is having problems.
At some point they may fix it but you may still need to reboot to see it correctly.
Dazz I answered you at length on Ballard St about all that maybe last night or the one before last…. but after you asked the question you apparently never came back and looked.
As for contact… it was Comics.com, not GoComics, I talked to…
though someone posted once you could call GoComics.
