So, anyway, Margo is visiting a friend (or what passes for a friend of Margo’s), Nina, presenting her a box of chocolates, complimenting her on her new hairdo, exchanging compliments (I have no idea who Nina is, maybe some dead guy’s wife, considering this is Apartment 3-G).  During the course of the chat, Nina points out to Margo, who is evidently blind but is bravely soldiering on without a white cane or a seeing-eye wolverine, that she’s pregnant.  Something like 11 months pregnant.

Faithful commenter pugfuggly, over at the Comics Curmudgeon, commented:

Given the compete lack of legs in A3G, I’ve often wondered if the finale of this strip is going to reveal that it was actually one big puppet show the whole time, and that the entire lives of these three women are just the product of the imagination of some autistic child with a chest full of dowdy marottes.

Interesting as that might be, I just focused on “puppet show”:

Personally, I think a puppet show featuring Margo and Sphixter would be pretty awesome.

Or, maybe just having Margo do what she does so well would be enough…

(You will be so good as to note that Nina’s words in Panel 1 are verbatim.  Heck, no one could resist that!)

And it’s home again, home again…with Lu Ann still in the wilds of West Dakota.

And we’ve moved back to deep philosophical discussions (read, boring talking heads) at the apartment.  I’ll have to fix that…

The current Apt. 3-G story is making me itch, with the Linskis certifiably weird Family Values, Lu Ann’s own creepy family, and her actual hesitation to go through with the wedding because she actually is aware of all the ickiness surrounding it.

Of course, there’s nothing like a good scratch!

Because Lu Ann has pretty much discovered it all by herself!

And so has dear old Mary Worth, for that matter!

Poor Lu Ann…more pulled in more directions and clueless than ever.

Fortunately, all is not lost…

…when Margo discovers you’re engaged, Lu Ann.

Comments Off on What’s Labor Day without a little swinging?

I haven’t snarked too much on Apt. 3G, since there isn’t much to snark on.  Paul LINSKI dropped by to invite Lu Ann to the LINSKI family reunion, and I think they had a fight. But there was ice cream, so I guess Lu Ann and Paul are still together.

In other news, Margo is still a bitch.

So here’s the Big Day:  The Linski Family Reunion! Of course, Lu Ann and her deviled eggs are trotted around like a prize pig, but that’s to be expected.  Blondeness like that…NOT in the family…is quite a catch!

It’s so hot! I mean hot! So hot that Lu Ann has to float in a tub-full of lemonade or something:

All that thinking…it’s like a siren song to Paul Linski!

…I can’t see a situation like this leading to the total destruction of the earth.  Maybe a few empty lots in New Jersey.

…but for God’s sake, Lu Ann, don’t feed Margo straight lines (or small children)!

And a BONUS! from CC’s The Artist former known as Ben!

(Don’t ask about his other hand…)

And realizing, that in some cases, the old Bullwinkle Moose adage of  “If they liked it once, they’ll love it a second time!” doesn’t always work:
