This made me think that Doonesbuey is probably the only comic that I love where likable characters are almost perfectly balanced in numbers by insufferable ones
I may be mistaken, but I remember a guy who sold his software business and became a millionaire in his mid-twenties, then got into pro poker full time.
@flyIntheweb – “he’s more like a Don Newcombe”, no, he’s not, not by a thousands miles. The Babe was the Babe, Newk was Newk, and Ohtani is Ohtani. Even at his best Ruth was never a power pitcher, nor was he a dominant pitcher the way Ohtani is, but of course was in a league of his own as a hitter. Newcombe was a great pitcher who could kill it with the bat, but never on this level. Ohtani is perfectly able to play the outfield, is just pointless for him to do so, while Ruth had to, or he couldn’t come to bat. Different eras, different rules, different players. Ohtani has to keep doing this for a few more years, but what he did is already historically spectacular.
Except for the fact that Elmont is out of his head, while Stupidhead is jut plain stupid, in the worst sense of the word. By the way, I always thought that Elmont looked way younger than Alice, almost like her son. It must be the hair colour, a “younger” shade of grey.
I bet there was a girl in the burglar team, and Hobbes just eloped with her
