mundane--(adj). see Mary Worth, the comic strip. syn: boring, humdrum, banal, stale, stupid, tired, ho hum, dull as dishwater, bromidic, old hat, corny, unimaginative, Moyesque.
"The job search is going swimmingly, Mrs. Worth. I'm pursuing employment in the male modeling game. Right now, I'm working on portraying a look that I like to call 'Disheveled Futon'. Do you like it?"
How many unsolicited casseroles per week do you have to have proffered to you by a neighbor before it just gets awkward.
Maybe it's just me, but I've lived next door to my neighbor for about eight years and, while we like each other just fine, I can count the number of out-of-the-blue gifts of food we've given each other on two hands with a few fingers left over.
There's a wonderful Garrison Keillor/Prairie Home Companion song called (I think) "Tuna, The Food of My Soul". Personally, I don't think I've eaten tuna casserole since the early sixties when Vatican II said we could eat meat on Fridays.
Now, would that be a bro or a manssiere Tommy needs to buy? Regardless of the terminology though, I do agrees that he needs a bit of support. He'll thank us later!
Tommy, please don't let Mary force her way in to your space. Once she gets the door closed behind her, she'll be selling you Amway products and a Kirby vacuum cleaner. And saving your soul at the same time.
Whaaa..??? "A way to redeem myself," you say? The only thing getting redeemed around here, sister, is the coupon you've got for a knuckle sandwich. Now, get off my case!

"Tuna casserole - I think that's the stuff that Ma put down the In-Sink-Erator."
Ah, a Mary-Tommy smackdown at last. Tomorrow Mary will tell Tommy about career opportunities as a restaurant janitor.
Tommy's having a particularly bad hair day today.

Tommy's posture says a lot about how excited he is to see Mary.
"Mrs. Worth, could I have your tuna casserole recipe? Jerry's sandwich shop wants to expand its menu."
People still make and eat tuna casserole?
Apparently tuna casserole gives you moobs.

Someone needs to get out and exercise or buy a man bra.

Does it have potato chips on it? Cuz I have the munchies...
I do believe that is an overly-suggestive pose that Tommy is striking for our Mary. Perhaps he was expecting someone else?
Tuna casserole is ok if you leave out the peas. Yuck.
Wednesday
What I'd like to see in tomorrow's strip:
Tommy in first panel: "What d'ya mean, my history!?"
Mary in second panel, covered with tuna casserole: "Mmmphh!!"
That covered dish formerly contained the ashes of Dear Jack.
Can it be too much to hope the afternoon will be spent in a haze while Mary asks Tommy all about "that drug thing?"
I think Tommy's history may soon include elder abuse.

I think Mary sells Electrolux.

Wanna see something really gross in Thursday's strip? Check out Tommy's chest hair growing out of the top of the casserole lid.
