Pour the Coffee In His Lap

"Or I had one of my famous Thornapple mini-strokes. I don't know. I'm dead inside. We're all dead inside here."

You're Going to Tie Him Up and Throw Him Overboard?

Veeblefester sure does threaten Brutus a lot. Does the CEO of your company constantly threaten you? I want to know if this a new practice in our capitalist regime.

Why'd she get so angry all of a sudden? It's a perfectly legitimate question. "I want something fast and cheap." He's in a friggen diner, not a four-star restaurant on the west side of town.

I'm More of a Cribbage Guy...Cribbage Is a Sport, Right?

I read the entire Wikipedia article on hockey and I still don't have any idea what Wilberforce is talking about in this strip.

Anything's Better Than Gladys' Food

There are very few things that I could eat every night but pizza is one of them. Especially if I can have different pizzas from different restaurants. I do have to admit that I don't like alliteration when it comes to my pizza parlors though. Seems like you're trying too hard.

Impressed He Went With Yo-Yos and Not Donuts

One of the (many) problems with the Internet is the proliferation of National "Insert something here" Days. It seems about every week there is some sort of National Whatever Day and what's funny is that most of them have to do with shoving food into your mouth. Like Americans really need a special day to justify shoving food into our faces.

Brutus Acts Like Kind of a Magnet

From this strip, it doesn't seem as if Brutus has a problem communicating but that he keeps getting interrupted. Brutus shouuld know by now that he is unimportant in this world but yet, ironically, fills an important role as life's punching bag. Brutus' life gets turned to crap so yours doesn't have to.*


*Your results may vary.

Is Brutus Pregnant?

We have a burger joint here that sometimes has a burger that has peanut butter on it. I would never order it but I'm fine with it existing. Weird burger toppings are fairly big right now so what you may think is weird, is perfectly normal in towns overrun with college students.

My City Has, Like, Three E-Cig Stores

I know a couple of people using e-cigarettes. As far as I can tell, they seem to be a good alternative to smoking. But to be honest, almost anything is a good alternative to smoking.

Refund? Yeah, Utility Companies Love Handing Out Refunds

I used to work for utility companies and it always baffled me when people would ask if they got a refund when we charged them more for their services (and it happened more often than you think). Of course you aren't going to get a refund for the probably less than two dollars you were overcharged, it's going to be credited to your account.

And I don't know why the Cleveland Water Department has such disregard for the precious resource that is water but I don't suggest wasting water like this.

She Was Looking At How Handsome the Newscaster Is

When I first opened the GoComics site, I only saw the top two panels of today's strip and wondered what was going on. I originally thought this was going to turn into a joke about how predictable the news is now or something about the mute button.

Nope. Audio not synced with picture joke. The Born Loser is now officially post-2010.
