Mother Strange

October 15, 1965

"Can I leave my insect specimens in the kitchen?"

"Sure! Everyone will love that."

I guess it's kind of a tradition that the kids in The Born Loser don't get to eat, because this kid--who I'm going to call Moe--wasn't invited to his own parents' dinner party. They deserve the bugs in the salad.

Why is Mother Gargle stomping around the house? Can't she ever be in a good mood when she's visiting her only child and grandchild? Is she going to punch something?

"Mother is acting strange today."

"How can you tell?"

"Don't you care about my mother's health and well-being? You know how much she means to me."

"*shrugs* Call me when the story is about me."
