Yesterday, we had the biggest cliff-hanger in Mary Worth since Aldo Kelrast's "Oh no!" -- "Jill, what's your verdict?" Well, Jill, open your mouth and let your simmering contempt spew! All week, you've kept your disdain and sarcasm to yourself, which may be appropriate in certain circles, but it's time to save your friend from buying the first ridiculous dress she tries on with all those embarrassing features.
I can't fully express how disappointed I am that Jill did not render her verdict today. That being said, dear reader, now I get to hear your thoughts on the perfect combination of the features Adrian loves. Your comments yesterday kept me smiling all day.
Today's Full Strip

I think Jill is not like Ann Coulter at all, well, because Jill is obviously mute. She hasn't said a word all week. That's just weird, especially for someone who is described as a Type A person.
I really think "Jill Black" is the result of the comments of people on this blog, that have filtered unchallenged into Karen Moy's concienceness.
Jill seemingly has all the contempt we have expressed at Mary, Adrian, Dr Mike, and the other dimbulb characters in the Worthesphere.
Long may she express her contempt and disdain at this motley crew.
She must be keen on the weeble feature that ensures the bride will wobble but not fall down on her way to the altar
Holy cow! Go away for a few days and the guns come out!
Or at least they will, soon as Ann Cou... Jill overcomes her reticence and starts taking names!
And what's with Adrian? she is a cross between goofy, drug addled, and just plain drop-down dumb... this girl's a doctor?
Holy cow! I'm stoked, people; this is great.
Here's what I'm afraid of. Per Wanders's disappointment that Ann, um, Jill refuses to speak in today's strip yet again, I fear great disappointment tomorrow as well. Time and time again, rather than the creators using the extra panels to actually advance a storyline (God forbid), the Sunday strip is usually taken up by a long recaps of what we've been seeing all week, while providing lots of room for glimpses of Santa Royale's varied landscape. So we may have to wait till next week for the "spew" that Wanders is hoping for. (Oh, and speaking of that varied landscape, what are the chances that Dr. Mike and Jenna have been pecked to death by seagulls, while the bridal salon has provided a convenient diversion?)
This dress must be divinely ordained for Adrian because in the second panel, she appears to have been beatified. Nevertheless, I do hope that Jill "Type A" Black will express her objections to the disturbing black smudges on the bosom of this otherwise perfect gown.
The dress has SO many features that Adrian likes, and Mary thinks it's grand as well! Although excruciating, we must all be patient.
Surely this is the set-up to a most delicious SMACKDOWN from Type-A Jill! I'm waiting for. "oh, good grief, that dress is sooo 1950's, Adrian! And it makes you look F-A-T, FAT!!!"
Hey Adrian, I think there's a mustard stain in the tablecloth on your head!
As for the many features, I especially like the variable suspension and leather appointments.
I can hardly wait for Sunday's strip! Jill is just seething with smarm, waiting to go off on Adrian's dress!
I wonder what "features" Adrian is talking about? Fabric, maybe? Oh, an apparently it has seams, too. I love seams. Otherwise, I see a pretty featureless dress.
At first I thought there is a mirror to Adrian's left. But now, from the different tilt of her head, I realize that it is instead another woman, turning to look at Adrian in an effort to match her pose exactly. And, while I'm nit picking, could someone please parse, "I never thought I could look this way before." ?
Can't wait for "this week in review" tomorrow.
in the second panal did adrian just get a breast exam from someone who just changed there oil
Adrian reminds me today of a jewelry box I owned when I was young. Under the lid was a tilting ballerina, twirling on and permanently angled at its base, and a little mirror reflecting an identical image tilted in the opposite direction.
Mary would have loved that jewelry box. Jill would have hated it.
I have long heard that the first bridal gown a bride-to-be tries on is invariably her favorite and she usually buys it. I don't know if it's true, because I remade my sister's dress (marriage worked for her, not for me) and I only have sons.
So, I don't know if that's true, but it certainly sounds plausible. Hence, Adrian will walk down the aisle, holding her bodice up with one hand, while she touches her face with the other.
Well, we already know that Adrians' judgement of "features" is impaired, what with Ted Confey's not-sister being fifty thousand dollars richer, so it's not surprising she thinks a desirable thing about a dress is that she has to cut her feet off to make the skirt the right length. When, oh when, will A-Jill speak up and put an end to this horror that Mary is enabling?
I'm sorry to see that the sheer size and weight of that veil is causing Adrian to tip over to her left. I guess she'll have to get an especially gigantic bouquet and hold it in her right hand to keep herself upright.
"Gosh, Adrian, it's perfect! It makes your rack look lopsided and the tablecloth hanging off the back of your head is the perfect finishing touch. I definitely think you should buy it."
Just got a peek at Sunday's strip. Priceless!
