    Larry, you just insulted yourself. And as usual you’re too stupid to know it. Feel awfully sorry for Patty, but I guess she can’t divorce him. Courts would probably side with Larry only because he’s too stupid to survive on his own without alimony.

    They say “for better or for worse” and the wives like Larry’s wife and Flo Capp are always stuck in the “for worse.”

    Carol Burnett once said that if you want to know what giving birth is like, take your lower lip and pull it over the top of your head. Maybe Patty should do that to Larry… ;)

    Larry makes a good point- I don’t want to see how hot dogs are made, either.

    The best time to take the advice of a doctor is well before you need the advice of a doctor.

    I hope you have a comfy couch, Larry, because that’s where you’re going to be sleeping for the next several years….

    Don’t kill him, Patty! It’s for the children!

    Part of the high school biology class on reproduction is a film that includes a very graphic childbirth scene, in which nothing is left to the imagination. Last time I showed it, I heard a girl in the back mutter, “I am never having sex…”

    interesting how i know at least one couple who could definitely be patty and larry. and yep he is as intelligent as larry. but i am still wondering how pastis is going to ‘throw us a curve’ in this series. so am trying to prepare for anything.

    Hey, it could have been worse. He could have been the kind of man who stands around with a video camera and tells the woman she’s “not looking into the camera, honey.”

    Is the doctor psychic, already knowing that it will be a “beautiful” child? With that gene pool I would tend to doubt it……..

    Not sure what the big deal is. She’ll be “giving birth” to an egg. It will be quite some time before they see the “beautiful child”.

    Larry apparently knows how much of a loser he is.Which kind shows that he isn’t completely dumb.

    For all those who keep reminding us that crocs lay eggs, since when do they lay them in hospital delivery rooms?It’s a comic. Like the misspelling cows from Chick-Filet.

    Or go to the hospital with a human doctor to deliver………..about two days after finding out about the pregnancy?
