Mary Worth 2683

Okay, this may sound freaky, but I get the strangest feeling that Dawn is speaking to me. It's as if no matter where I stand in the room, her eyes are following me.

Dawn is rather unattractive when she's angry, isn't she, shaking her tiny fingers in Jared's face? At least she dropped her bagle' first. That being said, matching your lipstick exactly to your sweater is a rare talent, especially when the color doesn't work for you.

In panel 2 we see a couple things that attracted Dr. Ned. (I hope this observation passes the family-friendly guidelines.)

What? The trees?

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled "I Feel Like Sue Could Straighten This Out If She Ever Comes Back To The Office".

Currently! Know!
How?
Overheard! Sorry tell, someone else!
Crazy! Jealous!

Ha! Ha! Fauxprof, I thought the same thing about Dawn’s choice in a color-coordinating shell top and lipstick.

Dawn storms into Ned's office.

Dawn: "You won't believe what that little twerp Jared just told me. That lying weasel said that you're still married. God, he makes me so mad."

Ned: "Uh . . . ahem . . . heh-heh . . . uh, I wonder where he got a crazy idea like that. But, uh, but he's a good kid, so I think it's best that we just ignore the whole thing. Yes, let's just pretend it never happened."

Dawn needs to take her tiny hand, tilt it slightly, and put it right in front of her forehead.

Called that response a few weeks ago. Wish I'd been wrong.

@ Dave in Parma.

Yeah, but her reaction will make her comeuppance all the more enjoyable to watch, as she grovels before Jared and sobs, "I've been such a fool!"

So the next questions is, What will Jared's response be? I think we know, but depending on how much nastier Dawn gets, he just might tell her to pound sand.

I'm beginning to wonder if Jared will get fired for his amateur hour, conflict of interest laden meddling.

Dawn's left boob, (sorry censors), needs an adjustment.

Dave in Parma said...

Is it just me, or is Dawn, uh, 50% off in Sunday's strip.

On the bright side @Chester, at least while she seems to be having issues being right, her left seems back in alignment.

Today's Funky Winkerbean was co-drawn by Joe Giella.
My instinctive reaction was to count the number of fingers on each character.

Jaren would have done better with a "Dr. Ned is married" sticky note on Dawn's computer.

Didn't anyone tell Dawn and Jared that they don't have to work on Labor Day? Everyone else apparently got the word, considering that the office is deserted.
