   First of all, Elizabeth looks cute all “dressed up.” And second, John just bought himself another night on the couch, that’s for sure!

   An odd couple indeed: one with a weird sense of humor (means well, but puts his foot in it), and one without a sense of humor that is desperately looking for things to be upset about. I can’t imagine a marriage like that working.

   Well, they were divorced just a couple of years ago. That’s why she’s not drawing any new strips.

   Once again, John. How much longer will she put up with it??

   Once again John suffers from “foot in the mouth” syndrome.

   Next, that idiot will say the clothes and make-up look better on Elizabeth than on their rightful owner.

    It might be a better cartoon if Michael were wearing the dress.

    That’s so sad! My honey likes to joke and pick on me at times but he also compliments me and treats me well, makes it a lot easier to take a joke.

    Elly walks around in a perpetual state of being butthurt. How about a smile once in a blue moon? Her husband made a silly, meaningless joke and she looks like she’s been slapped.

    Elly may be a twit, but how often does John say anything nice to her? All he does is tease her and complain about how hard his job is. I get that it’s a joke from the 80s, but it’s tired and it hasn’t aged well. It just makes him look like a jerk and her like a martyr.

    Also, I see men poke fun at how much women do with the makeup and nice clothes, but I don’t see any men standing for anything but the best when a woman shows up for a date, even though the men frequently show up having made no effort, whatsoever. And I have seen men who are absolutely nothing to write home about judge a woman’s appearance quite harshly as if she were a piece of meat. It’s doubly insulting that John is making fun of Elly’s efforts to look nice for him—kind of like making fun of someone’s cooking while you’re scarfing it down, or making fun of their car while you’re catching a ride in it.

    My wife and I both have a great sense of humor but I don’t have a death wish.
