    And Opal is? She’s more like the crabby ol’ crow.

    The older I get the more I tend to go ‘round and ‘round at 33 1/3 - and even slower.

    Today I agree with those of you who find Opal a grump. Sorry Opal but it would be hard to be very merry with you always griping at him.

    Opal may appear to be a grump to some of you, but try living with a guy who is dull as dishwater! She has a lot of living left to do, and he has settled into boredom!

    Dry:

    Why d’ya think young Nelson only likes to hang with Gramps? ‘Cause he’s a really nice old guy, a little silly (which is something little boys adore in a grampa), AND yet all his own wife does is berate & even BEAT ON him!

    Speak for YOURSELF, Grump-ma! He’s plenty merry when YOU’RE not around - but you wouldn’t know that, wouldja???…..Heck, she’d even make Jolly ol’ St. Nick go ”Ho Oh Nooooo”!!!

    Earl is funny and nice. Opal is a mean grumpy old woman.

    Opal could take some lessons from Earl on being more Merry - she is always ragging on the poor old guy!!!

    Women wouldn’t nag so much if men helped a little more around the house. Just pick up after yourself and respect the work she does to make a nice home.

    EArl’s retired, but Opal is still cooking and cleaning. How merry do you think that is?

    I’m with drystyha! like i said, why do men read this cartoon? If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen.
    it’s life for some people.. Crane isn’t making this stuff up and i love it.

    yankee - If people put the “s” in front of ex, more relationships wouldn’t end in divorce.

    I love this strip. It reminds me of an older couple that are friends. They pick, but deeply love each other.

    ♠Lonewolf♠Genius_badge said, 4 months ago

    rhutch436 I agree totally! That’s the exact way I look at this strip.

    Cleo I wish that were true, but sadly that’s not always the case.

    NOBODY is perfect….

    opposites attract…

    love is the magnet that pulls those opposites together… and makes the world go round….
