I’m meeting a lot of parents lately that I must have missed the first trip through. Zip’s dad is another one. Do we know how Zip’s family is related to Zonker’s?
I was just watching MILDRED PIERCE (one of my favorite movies) on Vudu, and there’s a scene where Veda demands—and gets—$10,000.00 for her (fake) pregnancy. Now, it’s a million? Just goes to show how much the dollar has shrunk in the 20th-21st century!!
I never understood why Joanie, who seems a fine, upstanding person, produced two such worthless progeny, JJ and Jeff. Admittedly, Joanie was not around for much of JJ’s childhood and Rick did belittle Jeff a fair amount, but still, I think that Joanie must harbor some gene for worthless offspring. Grand-daughter Alex redeems JJ to some extent, but it does not look as though the story is moving fast enough nowadays for Jeff to produce a redeeming grandchild of his own (storyline hint for Trudeau?)

Sounds like Zipper’s Dad is proud at the possibility of his son getting a girl in trouble.

Oh, here we go, yet another arc about how lazy ignorant and entitled millennials are. I swear Trudeau sometimes sounds like Phil Slackmeyer.

Does Zipper’s dad have the wide eyes Garry uses to portray innocence, or is he shocked?

Say, yes. It will be easier than explaining your “business plan” to someone who already has a million dollars.

For those of you who have trouble recognizing sarcasm – reference the first panel.
Just kidding – sarcasm can be difficult to distinguish from sincerity in many goComics comments.

Love the hair on Dad. Time wuz, looking like that there’d be those who’d wonder if he needed a rubber room.
