Pickles by Brian Crane for November 25, 2021

Good to know, Nelson.

Have you ever noticed that shirt seams are all sewn so the OUTSIDE of the shirt is nice and smooth, and the INSIDE has seams that stick up away from the shirt and BUG you as soon as you notice them? That’s why I sometimes wear my shirt with the smooth side in. That’s my story and I’m (ahem) sticking to it!

I appreciate the artist’s attention to detail. The buttons are reversed like a woman’s blouse and you can see the stitching at the seams. It is drawn inside out.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me. [sock it to me, sock it to me]

Respectfully noted.

Older? Yes. Wiser? Eh, not so much.

“I was in a hurry to get dressed”!

I said upside down you′re turning it

You’re wrongly dressed instinctively

′Round and ’round you turn the shirt

Upside down

Dude, you wear it inside out

And, ′round and ′round

That was the style at the time.

“Psych … Grampa … made you look.”

He would have noticed when he tried to button it up.

Happy Thanksgiving to All !

LOL! That says it all!

Sort of deflated your argument there, Earl…

Well THAT’S a little embarrassing……

It’s actually outside-in.

Everyone is wrong, this is Day 2 for the shirt, like the 4 day underwear; day 1 right side out front to front, day 2 front to back, day 3 inside out front to front, and day 4 inside out front to back.

Buttoning up must have been downright painful!

Hmmm. Explain how one buttons a shirt, if it’s outside in?

Check out the collar, buttons, and pocket. It is not inside out.

Have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving everyone!

It would be near impossible to put a long sleeve shirt on and button the front and wrist and reverse the collar and not notice. On a women’s shirt the buttons are on the left but they are on the outside,on an inside/out shirt the buttons would also be on the inside and not show when buttoned.Now putting on a polo shirt inside out is easy.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERBODY

YAY!! The PARADE IS BACK

LOL!

That explains why he needed Opal to button the buttons.

“You’ve got your shirt inside-out, sir!”

The old Saturday Evening Post magazine had a feature called “The Perfect Squelch.” Here’s a perfect one for sure. Good on ya, Nelson. But the old guy’s still right. Lose the “dude.” (Though I dislike “sir” almost as much; it shows respect, but it makes me aware of how old I am.)

He’s just anticipating the next fashion or trying to get an extra day out of the shirt. :)

Said respectfully.

Earl, just tell Nelson that you are wearing it that way because the outside of the shirt is dirty.

Happy Thanksgiving and why no Thanksgiving day theme in today’s comic?

Earl, you’re batting .500.

That’s how you get 5 days out of underwear. Day 1—normal. 2—front to back. 3—inside out. 4—back to front, inside out. Day 5—commando while you wash underwear.

Thisnway i,get two days wear out of it!

Shirt pocket on the wrong side if its inside out, and the buttons should be on the inside – a bit of dramatic license I suppose..

A tee shirt inside out is understandable. But a button up shirt? Impossible.
