Suze Orman she ain't

Sigh, Henrietta the sisters are supposed to be doing it for themselves.
You on the other hand are doing it for 15 cents off cat food.
(As we have discussed in an earlier post keep them fed or they will turn on you, also skip the chicken flavored fancy feast)

I was such a lonely kid, unwelcome at home, that I loved my paper routes. At one time I had 3 paper routes at the same time. I would collect money from my customers each month and they would sometimes invite me in from the cold where the warmth of the furnace would envelope me in comfort for a brief moment, before I was cast out into the harsh cold. Or in the summer the air conditioning would offer a tantalizing respite from the blazing heat. Sometimes I would wish one of those families would take an interest in me, or hopefully even take me in. But everyone was busy.

Fuuuck, classic pluggers sadness. These comments are like a time machine of sadness.
On the other hand why would they take you in?  That last "too busy" is the most passive aggressive thing I have ever read, no wonder no one took you in, you are terrible and unloved.
But you read comics online, that nice.

Still confused.

I am still confused over the pluggers and their relationship with technology, on the one hand they seem to still have rabbit ears (on the tv,  don't think there are any rabbit pluggers) but on the other hand this dude just bought a huge fucking television. Which probably would fit in the back seat as opposed to this dipshit way of carrying it.
That will show them over at Best Buy. Break the fucking thing before you get home. No fucks given.

Gee, as deep as the carton is, maybe it’s one of those new Samsung “curved” TVs. As a side note, back when I was in business, Samsung (Korean made) was a real piece of junk! As far as I am concerned, it still is…

Take that Samsung, Burrnn. Was this dude in the TV business? I sense some old Korean wounds.

Young turks

Young Pluggers? thats a thing?Wouldn't that just mean people?
This dog just speeds to the front of the line? He's using a cell phone for fucks sakes, theres no pluggerness to this just the travails of being a young man in love.
I am sure the lady dog/chicken/kangaroo will be super into him when he describes himself as a young plugger.
Whats the plugger in the upper right telling me? He's really bad at plumbing and fishing?

(actually there weren't many because the true pluggers now this is bullshit)

Hand-written letters from overseas with an APO address did it for me, but not without a lotta huggin and kissin before I GOT to that APO. Ah, memories……..

I googled this and it just means mail to soldiers overseas, He is playing it pretty blue with this talk of huggin and kissin. 

Call your grandma

If this doesn't break your heart you are stone cold.  Look how defeated she looks.Imagine how excited she was when she saw that light blinking, turns out it was just a reminder that the only thing keeping her alive is awaiting pick up. Will she eventually just stop picking them up?

I don’t get voicemails from the Red Cross asking for an appointment to donate a pint, but I do sometimes get a call from them.
Even the Red Cross doesn't love her, and she has blood for them. Blood as life giving as the sweater she gave yu for Christmas you never thanked her for,

Twerking?

I feel like this is a tattleable offense amongst children.
 I also wonder what kind of fucked up sight it is when a nine year old dog twerks. The little pups eyes look like he has witnessed horror he cannot unsee.
What does mom think he is telling her Jenny is doing?

Is it possible the artist still doesn't know what twerking is?



Obviously I am excited for the comments on this one.
The best (of many) coments from gocomics.com

Twerking’ is different than ‘Tweeting’. I think(watch it, we are in dangerous territory) is a way of dancing from what I have seen.

Yup, seems about perfect.

Great Dane.

First of all we are letting foreigners submit pluggers now?
Does anyone care about Danish Accordions?
Did he win a radio contest? Or in addition to having all the greatest perks do the Danes also get one pluggers joke published? Because folks with a tax rate that high they better, am I right?
Yes I know healthcare, childcare, amazing benefits for the elderly and disabled and realistic unemployment benefits, are all well and good but how is their senior discount at the movies?
Because as seen in earlier Pluggers thats the entitlement program pluggers believe in, and vegetables you can beg from your neighbors.




Best comment from go comics
So a Plugger listens to any old thing, any CD he finds at Big Lots, anything at all, as long as it’s cheap? How insulting is that??….In the Real Deals store, I found a huge stack of CDs for a dollar each. Lindsay Lohan’s little sister had made a “Christmas album” (what they thought I guess would be a sure money maker for years to come). So everyone I gave a present to that year got a little bonus gift, to perk up their already merry holidays! …. There are still dozens of ‘A Lohan Christmas’ CDs there, waiting for good homes with indiscriminating Pluggers.

Is Lassie1 here burning Pluggers or just an incredibly shitty gift giver?
I read all his or her other comments on comics and am more confused than ever

I have got to get out of the house.

Ohh Pluggers

Entitlement is only for old people. They earned it.

Fuck everyone else. 

Best comment from go comics, Surprisingly (or perhaps not) all the comments were about movies prices. 

 I remember as kids down south seeing Journey to the Center of the Earth. Friends and I would stay all day in the theater and watched it two or three times. The theater wasn’t top notch like the ones they have today. Remember having to keep our feet up off the floor also because of pesky rodents that would be munching on popcorn on the dark floor.

Ahh the good old days, rodents.

If its good enough for god

I am confused by this, is it just to save the outfit? Aren't church clothes a little too fancy for the office?  Although judging by this business suits are modern church garb.



Best comment on go comics
In many cases, at least three hours. 
1.2 hour including getting out the door and the drive to the church
1 hour sitting in the worship part
1 hour sitting in the eating room chatting
1/2 going back and getting into the house.

An eating room? There's an eating room? I am rethinking atheism all the sudden.

This is not a solid situation

In the days I have been in the been in the pluggers game I have struggled with trying to capture the elusive question of what is a Plugger? 

Now I see its based on reaching an age that is also comfortable room temperature, and dying before it becomes uncomfortable again.

Best comment from go comics

Ever since we had Celsius forced upon us, I don’t know what the temperature is.

This guy can also talk some mad shit on metric I am guessing.

All you can eat, shame and sadness.

Poor pluggers, poor, poor pluggers.
They think buffets are real food. I mean look how fucking  panicked he looks.
I mean how terrible is your idea of a diet that it can be immediately ruined by a bogo at hometown buffet?

Damn it, all of my most shitty elitist feelings come out when I read a pluggers.
Seriously, I am becoming the worst person.




Best comment from go comics.com
Yeah, to the resturant that you want to go to but not to the 7 in town that do it all the time which you have been to too many times!!!

Pluggers fans are you never happy? Why do you use the comments section of a comic posted online to get it out? Does this happen,  Coupons from two two towns over?

You have nothing to live for

This is heart crushing sadness. And what makes it a classic? Gary Brookins only bestows the "classic" on the most pluggery of pluggers. Congratulations Brad Wesner of Simpsonville, SC. You really captured the soul sucking life of a plugger.

This store doesn’t have the bucket on wheels for mopping duties?

Good looking out commenter. 

Get your pun game straight

This is exactly what bothers me about many Pluggers technology jokes they just don't really work. Yes I see its a stream, so the streaming pun works. but whats the online part?
Lazy punnng.


UPDATE I WAS WRONG I GET IT. ITS A LINE, YOU CATCH FISH ON IN A STREAM.
BROOKINS IS SMARTER THAN ME. THAT SAID ITS STILL SORT OF DUMB.
thank you.

When I was a boy My father fished with plugs; I used grasshoppers. Then I heard about “fly fishing” so I went up in the attic and collected all the dead flies I could find by the window.

Let me be honest, they were all about fishing. This one combined puns at least.

like an avalanche of sadness

Look at him, unable to bring himself to stagger to bed and the sexless marriage with a chicken, because how would that even work?  My other concern is where is Henrietta? does her feathery mass even count as wear on the mattress. Her tears over sleeping alone must count for something, because I only see one recliner.




Best comment from gocomics.com
Manufacturers would recommend replacement every ONE year if they thought anyone would believe them.

Fuck big mattress.

Real pluggers

Suck on that Federal Government, pluggers give charity to who they decide. To other people of their race and financial situation.....wait the race thing doesn't make sense, its a fucking chicken and a dog.
Pluggers, making us all reconsider our own prejudices.



Best comment from gocomics.com
Real pluggers would practice canning. meaning storing food into jars to store for the winter. since many of their family and friends have the same fruits and veggies in THEIR yards as well.

Yes Henrietta if you were a REAL plugger, instead of the lady chicken start of the comic strip of the same name. Geez, commenter judge much?

Pluggers smell terrible

Is this because you can only afford one outfit on social security? Or because you are a filthy dude who don't give a fuck? I am assuming he just cut the sleeves off.



Best comment from gocomics.com
About the same here. A friend died around that time and I inherited his wardrobe. He was a bit of a clothes-horse. Nine years later, I still have a couple boxes of slacks and shirts to go.

Holy Shit that is depressing. The fact that he is wearing them out box by box makes me feel like we may have a horder on our hands. 

The humble chicken really is all a dog needs.

For the first time ever (in the two hours I have had this blog) the best comment from gocomics.com and I are thinking the same thing.



Isn't he married to a chicken?

Lovin it

Why would anyone be so stoked to be so emasculated? The name Bob Beers is really fake.

Perhaps I should do some investigative journalism and find out who these submitters are. 

Best comment from gocomics.com

They’re “lovin’ it”

No they aren't.

Heck

Unlike younger folks who throw shampoo out as soon as it is a quarter full because we just do not give a FUCK.
Also I feel like this should be racy but as it is a bear and I see them topless all the time I guess its no big deal.
I suppose if the dog or whatever she is married to jumped n it might get pretty dirty pretty quick. Or he might have a stroke

Why am I assuming this is a woman?



Best comment from go comics.com

Heck when the bottle is 1/4 used fill it up with water then. Heck if you want cheap instead of buying low cal dressing but the fat stuff and when 1/3 done with it fill it with water. there you go us plugger rule

Someone here is trying to out plugger pluggers.

You never win until you die.

Pluggers, the only thing they succeed at is dying.

My brother-in-law used to live in a gated community: Army base!

Seriously, you came to the Pluggers comments page to boast your brother in law was in the Army? That is a cry for attention that will not work. Half these people were in korea and the other half are reliving 'nam everytime they close their eyes. 

Everyday is Saturday

Yes its shitty to say but come on we all know why he is forgetting and it has nothing to do with the date changing everyday.  I swear to fuking god it would be really sad if you really were suffering from dementia and a fan of pluggers because they are constantly making light of your problems. Or maybe its just a good source for funny quips when suffering from senior moments.



Best comment from go comics
When I retired, I commented that every day was Saturday.
I soon discovered that on the weekends, the roads and stores are clogged with the people that are still working.
My revised assessment is there’s now five Saturdays, and two Mondays.

But no Sundays? Its not like a Plugger to turn his back on god like this.

Book on face

If I saw this  I might poke the dude with a stick. Then upon finding him alive would awkwardly laugh when he made this lame facebook joke.

….book-on-face.

Doesn't know what Facebook is.

A waist is a terrible thing to mind

Her look of disgust is really fucking bitchy, fuck you Sheila just because you are an aerobics instructor the dinner table is no place for body shaming.

I was smart this year. Had little plates of everything about every 2 hours. Wasn’t miserable at all.

Is this advice for the dog in pluggers? Because he's not real.

Sleep with one eye open

They are just waiting to eat you lady. Not only because you are old but because you are chicken.


best comment from go comics
My three Tom’s guarded me for three weeks when I came home after open heart surgery. They left my bed just long enough to grab a bite to eat and use the litter box. I was never left alone during this time. At least one cat was always next to me during my early recovery. Love my boys!

Ok, no snark here thats just really nice.

Til death do you part

the anguish of the lady dog as she copes with her husband's dementia is heartbreaking, she's just happy he can still read the paper.

makes you wonder and brings a tear to your eye….. when adults in their 50s-60s…. you only remember as young kids…. pass on


More light hearted fun in the comics

Pluggers are dropping science

Yes gravity is always winning, pulling you down into your eventual icy grave.
Its also making your ass fat.



Best comment from go comics

Then you get ‘bone loss’ and you have to build it back up or at least learn to live with it when you get back ! ! !

This bitch will do anything to bring up her bone loss.

garage doors aren't the only thing opening.

Fuck this dude gets a lot of tail. I mean that in two ways, actual sex based on what a bad ass he thinks he is and of course the tail of his chicken wife. Because dogs fucking chickens is just how middle america sees themselves.

does he just clip anything he can on his belt?





Best comment from go comics
You might like it that way. But what about those who do not have full usage of their body? Sometimes a plugger needs to adapt to using technology because their body is unable to do full physical stuff anymore.

Sigh. 

Falling apart is fun

It can be so hard to tell if you are simply having some physical problems or if something more serious and mental is happening. I would also fucking cry if someone did this in front of me.

Good lord that is some dark pluggers real talk.

Ok. Let's just do this.
