Is it weird that I like "Adult Children" so much?

I like it so much that I'd buy any printed collection of the strips. Even the weird ones. Heck, I'd buy more than one copy so I could give them out as Christmas presents!

Quote of the week… “don’t talk logic to crazy”….. I’m definitely using that today, thank you!

Your survey ought to include the option, ‘Yes, because my boss made it mandatory.’

Caves under gas stations… 🤔… I wonder if that’s true of a lot of stores, like HomeGoods or underneath a mall…?

I have never come across these strips before and am drawn to them like a magnet. I knew it was my thing when I saw the survey😂

Wierd customers are the best, its the creepy ones you have to look out for.

When I worked in the bakery section of a supermarket we had our own Bingo cards for the wierd customers, there was one guy who listened to the baguettes before he bought them, didn't tap on them or anything culinary, just picked them up one by one and listened to them then went “ aha” and put that one in his trolley, I always picked 5-6 ( for the number he would listen to before choosing one) and was right quite a few times.

We had a lady who would ask her poodle what pâtisserie to buy, I always chose eclairs, but her poodle chose a lot of different patisserie , so that was fairly random to get a bingo tick, and there were two little old ladies, who were sisters, who were triplets…yes triplets, their deceased, ghostified third sister apparently came shopping with them and they would each talk to her and act as though she actually replied, they always had a multiseeded loaf, sliced medium no6 ( we sliced it with a machine on request) and three patisserie…we always wondered if their spooky sister ate it.

Wierd customers made our day, the kookier the better. 😁

When I see how you draw Tabby, that was us, we had our paper bags with the “ cut offs” of various patisserie as our popcorn, and we would just stand back and watch the crazy.

Good times.

Of course when we had to venture out from behind the safety of our counter , into the store to put out freshly baked loaves, we did it as quickly as we could, a race of sorts, because almost immediately as you stepped out from behind the counter some customer or other would accost you, asking you where this or that was in the shop or just wanting to complain at someone about something wholly unrelated to the bakery section.

It was like those zombie shows, where you look around, the coast is clear, you grab an armfull of bread and run to the shelves opposite, hurl them onto the shelves and leg it back praying no one starts with the “ excuse me miss, where's the..

.” 😁

Is anyone else having trouble getting polls to work for them? Lately, clicking on the options doesn't work for me at all.
