This story is so boring it's barely snarkable.

Charley said...

Wanders, you've just saved Toby a good three hours looking those websites up. Of course, the first two and a half of those hours would have been waiting for the tubes to warm up so the screen would come on.

Peggy Olson said...

Mary doesn't trust those electronic devices and she's too polite to Google. Toby and Mary should head to the library and use the card catalog, and then mail long letters to the credit bureaus.

That should take us to the end of 2012.

Wanders - hahaha! I love it. Toby has been too busy seeking to expand her Gacy-esque clown painting portfolio to know those simple websites that the rest of the world knows.

Also, what was in that coffee that is making them shrink? I fear that tomorrow the keyboard keys will be as big as the palms of their hands! Then soon thereafter, they will be able to type out a website by dancing on the keys a-la Tom Hanks in "Big".

Barely Karen, but not impossible. The Readers Digest print keyboard comes to mind as a start.

I for one would find it funny if Little Felon Annie and her boyfriend found Mary's life so boring that they returned her identity.

Nice slacker pose, Mary!
Bet that hand in your pocket wants dearly to face touch, qui?

Elaine said...

Oh, life lessons from Toby! Just what I wanted to wake up to, a commercial on how to check my credit report.

Mary said...

I'd really like to start wearing purple jumpsuits. Does anyone know where I can buy one?

James in North Dakota said...

lol at Peggy Olson and Tuffenuf! What a way to wake up on a Thursday morning!

This storyline is about as tedious as when Toby lost her identity to those dang Canadians and Terry Bryson came by and told her what to do for about three weeks.

And I agree with Dave. By Saturday, "Little Felon Annie and her boyfriend" will be banging on Mary's door, begging for her to take back her identity.

WV: "ovested," as in "I've ovested so much time and effort in calling the credit card bureaus."

Mary thinks, "In an ideal world there wouldn't be credit bureaus . . ."

KitKat said...

Is this Karen Moy's pre-holiday-shopping season public service announcement? What a snoozer. Apart from Dave in Parma's hilarious remark about Little Felon Annie, the only mildly interesting development is the emerging role reversal between Mary and Toby. If Professor Chinbeard takes Toby to the Bum Boat tomorrow, we'll know that something is going on for sure.

Maude Findlay said...

Oh, I so want to see Little Felon Annie(Thanks, Dave!) in a gray wig, pretending to be Mary Worth, so she can get a fake prescription for Oxycontin filled with Mary's ''Medical card''!

tuffenuf said...

Wanders - perhaps a category addition to the Worth-y awards:

"Best Character Nickname given by a Reader"

...and the winner is...

"Little Felon Annie" by Dave in Parma!

I thought Toby had errands to run. I guess the excitement of giving Mary advice was just too much to resist.

Thorpnotized said...

I thought Toby had errands to run too, but then realized it's already the next day, since their clothes are different.

Vicki said...

"I've heard of these things called "websites", but aren't they also dangerous Toby? Please be careful, dear!"

Maggie said...

Experian, Equifax, and Transunion are going to be baffled be the spike in traffic they get today.

BaHa said...

Um, Toby, one doesn't actually call websites.
