In today's classic strip, Brutus does some strange parenting and that doesn't include him quoting Prometheus.

Born Loser Roadshow
I am going to be trying something a little different over the next week or so. Starting today, Born Loser posts will be up on Ko-fi. The classic strips will still be there along with today's strip.
Meanwhile, what is "watching something special"? Is Uncle Ted watching Blossom? Or maybe that episode of Saved By the Bell where Elizabeth Berkeley gets addicted to caffeine pills? Maybe he's watching the first season of How I Met Your Mother, one of the only absolutely perfect TV seasons.

Hattie doesn't strike me as a makeup girl. Maybe they're there for something else. "I overheard my mom talk about her toys in her bedroom. They sound like fun to play with."

Is that guy Mrs. Nooshnick's husband or one of those male escorts that are welcome here?

We had to shave our long-haired cat yesterday because he had a couple lumps that we couldn't brush out and they were really bothering him. It was definitely not $40.
You can't get Wilberforce to take a bath?

So Brutus is eating a cold toaster pastry and drinking cold coffee...from a Styrofoam cup?
Why don't Brutus and Arnie carpool?

Foot Pain
When a group of bandits make an important cattle drive pass impassable, a group of cowboys--and Bess, a cowgirl(!), try to figure out a way to their destination. But, when their best shot, and Bess' boyfriend, is gunned down, a mysterious stranger steps up. But can he be trusted? Read Ride Fast for Wyoming!
Knowing Veeblefester, I'd appreciate the empty box.
The walk-in clinic was too booked up to help you? You can't speak with your own doctor to try to get into the podiatrist? I know the American healthcare system is terrible, but Brutus just seems lazy here. Which I'll allow.

First Veeblefester remembers I have a kid and their name is Wilberforce. Now he's gifting me empty boxes.
He dropped a can of paint on his foot.
If you would like to support me or this website, you can buy me a cup of coffee over on Ko-fi.

Maybe Brutus Would Work Better If You Didn't Stand Over Him

Is Coach Thornapple Brutus' father? Maybe that's why we don't see him in current comics. He was hanged by his small town sports fans.
