Friday July 2nd

The comic:

That squirrel is effing creepy.

And it's so nice that they care about the birds. They watch the birds eating because someone stole their TV because they don't live in a bird feeder and are like my sister, who thinks locking the door at night is "overdoing it."

Monday February 1st

The comic:



No, save Branson!

Also, Pluggers live on the edge. You don't forget your meds.

YOU DON'T FORGET YOUR MEDS!

This is a bad comic, a dangerous comic. You do not do this! Yes, you're all on blood pressure meds. But are they the same dosage? Eh, they can't gamble in Branson, so they'll gamble with their LIVES?!

Mucho hate today.

Saturday January 23rd

The comic:


You're a Plugger if your kids don't know basic (American) history.

That is sad.

And struggling out of a comfy chair sucks, so stay there, nice and comfy and warm, pretending this comic never happened. (We were spared the creator of the depression, give thanks.)

Friday January 1st

The comic:


That's it, set the bar low!

My resolution for 2010 is to watch more Bollywood.

And possibly update this on a more regular basis. (I just wasn't in the mood for the countdown and I had surgery on Wednesday and whine whine whine.)

Happy 2010! 2000 wasn't the future, but surely 2010 will be!

Tuesday December 15th

The comic:

Well, if you have a Plugger delivering your mail, you never have to worry about him reading them - but how does he know where to deliver it?

Oh, you mean that Pluggers aren't elitist snobs who go to college. Fuck you very much, I am incredibly depressed and anxious just trying to keep my head above water this semester (which will be over tomorrow... I hope) and just shut up. College isn't easy.

Wednesday November 4th

The comic:


Chocolate has an expiration date?

And talk about your generic generics! "Milk Choklit"? Surprised they spelled Milk right.

I can't tell what that's supposed to be - it looks like either an extra larger chocolate bar or some kind of (usually bitter) baking chocolate. So they bake a lot?

Or they like chocolate.

Sent in by a man, illustrated with a female creature. Bien sûr.

Actually, I think I've had Hershey's Kisses past their "best eaten by" date. They'd melted and fused with the wax paper and/or they were rock hard.

Anyways, what sets Pluggers apart from the rest of us? Chocolate - except for baking chocolate - isn't meant to last. It's for eating.

But no, this is supposed to suggest that Pluggers eat a lot, especially the ladies, ya know what I mean? Ha ha ha. Isn't it HILARIOUS? Why aren't you laughing?

No, wait, what was it in MAD's parody of Mad About You (Too Bad About You)? They replaced the laugh track with a "how true, how true" track. (Don't have book with me.)

But Pluggers can't make up its mind - either we're busting a gut laughing at ourselves, or we're nodding thoughtfully, how true, how true. That's the intent.

My reactions are divided into two categories - WTF?! and ::sigh:: Occasionally I get "inspired" and read something dark into it - treason, murder, cannibalism - but usually it's me blathering on about how little sense/how boring it is.

And then we all suffer.

Wednesday October 21st

The comic:


Change is scary.

Also, isn't that expensive? I know it's more expensive to replace something every year, but when it's 54 years old, I think the parts cost more than a new one.

Tuesday September 22nd

The comic:

Bully for them, but damn, this is getting into dementia area here, because stringless band-aids have been around for a while now, and I hope they haven't called their great-grandkids up and said, "Help! I can't open this Band-Aid!"

Maybe this was sent in by one of the annoyed relatives?

I mean Band-Aids are so... simple. Though not taking them off when they're on a dog's leg. "Gimme your leg Dixie, gimme. No, stay, stay!"

Wednesday September 16th

The comic:


What's a double celebration for non-Pluggers? What the hell are they smoking?

Something cheap.

Jeezus, lady, no one made you marry him, let alone stay together long enough to have a divorce.

And what an idiot! He's so happy, he almost looks like a real dog!

Thursday September 10th

The comic:


Pluggers are idiots.

Monday September 7th

The comic:



Dick Dahl, again?

And since when are eskimo pies on sticks?

Pluggers are idiots.

Enjoy your day off.

Friday August 21st

The comic:

"You know you're old when you forget things."

RhinoMan, RhinoMan, RhinoMan. Gambling is not the way to fiscal solvency!

Monday August 17th

The comic:


I was born in 1988. I could buy something "several years" older than me and my hypothetical coworkers.

Now Pluggers aren't necessarily old, I am sad.

Monday July 20th

The comic:



How is that a paradox?

Tuesday July 7th

The comic:


You're a Plugger if you have to force yourself to read a book. And you wouldn't read it if you hadn't put it on a list.

It can't be a good book or else you would have read the book instead of doing the chores.

Thursday June 11th

The comic:


Pluggers are stupid.

My sister forgot how to ride a bike, or so she claimed.

She's driving me nuts, so I'll call her a Plugger.

Wednesday May 20th

The comic:


Pluggers like to remember the only time somebody cared about their needs.

Monday May 11th

The comic:


Pluggers are gullible fools.

Monday April 27th

The comic:


As someone who frequently forgets things (thanks to the many medications and their lovely side effects), I find this hilarious!

It is so damn funny when you forget something and people yell at you! Oh, I'm not crying, I'm really laughing.

Or or or or when it has hard consequences, be it ruined food or a failed test! Oh the hilarity that ensues! Did I take my medicine? I'm not sure, I forgot! (hahhahahahahahahaha)

Wednesday April 22nd

The comic:


Because Pluggers have no friends.

Next!
