And women do not do this? as in:
Him: “But I don’t understand, what did I do wrong?”
Her: “If you don’t know, I am not going to tell you!”

Can’t she go to the mall tomorrow?

Whoa—if she doesn’t give a hoot about his golf game why must he accompany her to the mall??
~Probably something to do with satire I’ll bet.

Ain’t that the truth - men are pretty easy to understand. Sort of like mid-range calculators: they function very well for what they’re intended to do and don’t require much maintenance but they only do one thing at a time. Women are more like computers; hopelessly complicated, capable of multi-tasking, but only a trained professional understands them.

@ejcapulet - and not even they really have a clue!

Men have spent thousands of years making life so easy that we’re not necessary any more.
And why? To impress our girlfriends ,of course!
In a hundred years, we’ll be lucky if they keep us as pets.

Most women do NOT want to take their husbands/other halves to the mall. They usually get themselves into trouble much like a 3 year old….
In truth, I would never have my husband take me shopping if he had the opportunity to play (golf, or some other sport); he gets so little time off work as it is. Besides I can drive and have two healthy legs to walk with!
Have to love the shadow though!

Little does he know, they’re going to the mall to buy him a new pair of golf shoes…

The phrase “I’d rather be Golfing” can be associated with so many activities. Working and going to the mall with the wife rank right up there.

Women are easy to understand, and even easier to make happy. Men just never learn how to factor in hormone roulette or do the dodge. For example:
Woman: Honey, do these pants make my butt look big?
Man: Baby, those pants are old and out of style. Here, take my credit card and go treat yourself to a new pair of jeans and maybe something sexy from Victoria’s Secret. You can model it for me later.
(Woman leaves to go to mall, man goes and plays golf)
This is what we in the know call the win-win scenario ;)

I think every mall should have a hardware store, a sports store, and a bar. If you really want to get the wives out fast, make it a strip bar
rhutch436 said, 4 months ago
I can take the mall. When I really wonder if she secretly hates me is when I get dragged into Wal-Mart. She then loses all sense of direction and goes in a winding route through the store with me trudging along for what seems ages. She’ll spend 10 minutes or so deciding on a shirt, only to put it back on the rack and continue the tour. That’s when I distract myself by looking into the zombiefied eyes of other men also going through this version of hell.
BTW, I’m curious…Is it a requirement that all Wal-Mart personnel using the the speaker system to screech into the microphone at exceptionally high decibel levels?

“We” shop at Home Depot/Lowes, B&N and Container Store….after that, he’s on his own….me too.

Wow - projector in the soles of his shoes. That makes ‘Get Smart’ phone -in -the -heel technology very amateur.
She’s bitter because the grandkids like him better.
It would be better if she wasn’t bitter and let him golf without fetters. ( Fetters: chains……. for the verbal rookies)
A to the team.

What? She needs help going to the mall? Why can’t he go golfing while she goes to the mall? Sheesh!
Nelly55 said, 4 months ago
easiest solution for me, we go to the outlet shopping center:
he goes where he wants, and I go where I want
we have our cells
we meet in 3 hours for lunch
p.s. neither of us like the mall, so that’s moot

A. Fortunately I get to golf whenever my knees and my work schedule let me (and the time of year - almost forgot to mention that)
SQUIDBREAKER said, 4 months ago
@@@ yyyguy
A.
I can’t golf until I find out if Brett Farve is going to the Vikings, in which case my Viking head covers get burned and I become a Detroit Lions fan. I like to cheer for the underdog. Finding Lions head covers might be tough - I think Lions fans burned those last year.
Why is your picture a Lion?

Lewreader, I’ve found malls like you describe (no strip bar though). The mall outside of Appleton, Wisconsin has a micro-brewery/sports pub just inside the main entrance. When I visited the mall with wife and daughter last year, I spent the whole visit at the bar (which we called the “Dad Zone”) while the femmes went shopping. Life is good…

I like to shop alone. I make a list, find what I need, go pay and I’m out of there. When the hubby comes along, he keeps stopping at anything and everything asking, “Do we need one of these?”
SQUIDBREAKER said, 4 months ago
I don’t have a cell. I haven’t done anything against the civil law, thankfully.
I see Nelly55 has cells - apparently occupied by a couple family members. It’s nice you get out on lunch release though.

When a new mall opened ‘round here it had a Black & Decker Outlet store. We guys, strangers all, just looked at each other & grinned. “Finally, a toy store for us.”

classically, in the comics, the man is dragged along so that he can hold packages while she shops for more and more stuff
My wife does not like crowds, so she hits stores very early in the morning, when I am still asleep. I don’t slow her down because I am still in bed, snoozing. Works for me!

Maybe she’ll buy him new clubs.

what about the mars story?

“what about the mars story?”
Wiley’s practice of going back and forth between stories and one-shot panels exemplifies the concept of “non sequitur”, which is Latin for “it does not follow”. He’ll get back to the Mars story when he wants to.

Generally it alternates - a week of story, a week of one-shots - so this should be expected (at least I expected it) and back to the continuity next Monday …

EMET: Rooting for the Lions is as pointless as hoping for the weekend to never end: just because you want it to doesn’t mean it’s going to, in fact, it doesn’t matter, because neither will change.
treered said, 4 months ago
love the comments, specially ejcap and baslim. i can’t help but wonder, what did Mad Off’s shadow look like?
yyyguy

@EMET. it’s a lion because i was born in early august, making me a “Leo” astrologically. it’s a photo i took of the stained glass panel my sister-in-law made for me for my last birthday. the previous one was a self protrait, and this will be replaced by something else when i get tired of looking at it online.

Well why don’t all you COMPUTER COMPLICATED women fix your own crap!!! You wouldn’t last 20 seconds without us guys!

Call me a strange women but i would MUCH rather be playing golf than shopping!

This reminds of the MAD feature “The Shadow Knows” (or something like that) that used to show what people were really thinking through their shadows.
Sergio Aragones did those, I think.
