    Your not going to get lucky, and if in some miracle you did, where would you take her, home to mommy.

    Notice the ‘halo’ over his head? Clever.

    What’s Ted going to do when his mom kicks the bucket?

    Marriage isn’t about romance, Ted but about compatibility.

    Sure, he’s contented now Gweedo–but as carmy inferred, his applecart’s gonna be grossly upset when his mum passes on.

    SchmoozeMinkey, I thought the same thing initially, but if you look, it’s not really a halo. It’s just the light in the ceiling.

    This dope ought not to get married if he’s thinking a wife is only there to perform household tasks. And he left out the most pleasant part of marriage, the lovemaking! But to think a wife is only to do things for him is selfish and immature. Let him stay home with mommy. I hope they move onto another thread soon.

    When momma dies and reality about being alone because no woman will go near him hits this dude is gonna hurt so bad!

    When Mom dies, Norman…..eh, I mean, Ted, will just keep her in the basement.

    Don’t think Mom is not getting a big ‘bennie’ from this arraignment…think about it!!

    Guys like this one forget that when they are young and good looking is the best time to find a mate. By the time they are getting old and ready to settle down, the pickings are rather slim. And if they don’t have children, who’ll take care of them when they’re really old?

    Supposedly, if Ted’s mother dies, will he know how to sew with the needle and thread to put the button on his shirt? Obviously, he doesn’t know how to sew anything because he is stupid.

    Maybe the light in the ceiling symbolizes a halo. Or maybe we are looking too deeply into it?!

    He talks the talk but can’t walk the walk.

    Carol1966…I saw that too, I liked the symbology even if it was just a coincidence.

    I think Ted’s mother was still alive and kicking at the end of the strip, wasn’t she? That’s 30 years in the future from here.
