Sofa King Lazy

She must not have been looking very hard considering he's just on the couch.

Does Brutus get the whole week off for the Fourth? That must be nice. Mm. But he probably doesn't get paid. Why would Veeblefester pay you if you aren't working?

What Man Doesn't Enjoy a Good Lie Down?

February 21, 1966

I actually laughed out loud at this. I don't really know why. I do find it funny seeing Brutus open his mouth wider to make fun of his wife. I mean, who does this?

And I immediately go to something dirty and sexual about why he wants his wife's mouth a certain size so what does that say about me?

For the love of Jeezum Crow, it's Saturday! Let a goddamn working person lounge around on Saturday! Do you want to go do something, Wilberforce? Then just say so! Quit lazy-shaming a person!

Even God Rested...

April 19, 1986

I have to admit that I like how snarky Art was toward church and the parson here. I'm sure most of the unfortunate would like to reverse their direction. Sadly, attending a church service, meditating, or singing a hymn doesn't help with that. You know what does? Money.

Can't a person just have one freaking day off? That's one thing I hate about life: I work all week and then I still have to come home and do more work--whether it's dishes, cooking, cleaning. I have a right to have a least one day where I don't have to do anymore work. And Gladys is home all day? Is there a reason she needs help? You couldn't ask him for help on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday? Because it was a holiday week, remember.

Ugh. This strip is angering up the blood.

I plan on getting back into history/comics/stories in December. If you would like to support my writing, research, or just this website, you can buy me a cup of coffee on Ko-fi.

Monday Quickie

Halloween decorations? So he needs to peel the window clings off and throw the pumpkin into the trash?

Twiddle-Dee-Dee

"Involuntary inertia"? Then you would think the external force of losing his job and lack of money would make Brutus less inert but whatever. It's Brutus' family not mine, and they're fictional so...

Leave Him Alone

It's Saturday. Who cares if Brutus hasn't got off the couch all day? I'll never understand the spousal and societal push for having people work all week and then work some more during the weekend. It's the weekend. I don't have to do anything.

1020: Even God Rested for One Day

It's a Saturday. Brutus spends five days a week trying to sell tea cozies or whatever! He, as do all of us, deserves at least one day off from the tedious awfulness of life.
