Mary Worht 2858

That firehose showerhead is going to peel the layers of fat right off of Wilbur.

Panel of the year.

And still barely a hair out of place on that combover. What the heck does he use, Gorilla Glue?

KitKat said...

Is Wilbur using Dawn's bath brush? Ewww.

With all the clouds of steam and the bubbles, the Weston bathroom will soon break loose and float into Santa Royale Bay. Whale sighting!


Delilah said...

Wilbur! You forgot your pink frilly shower cap!

Tim said...

MW: my sincere wish is that Norman Bates is about to make an appearance. Oh, and judging by the water pressure and gigantic brush, Wilbur is taking a ritual, once a month, shower, which would explain a lot.

Michael Beaumier said...

I’m appalled that already I can see the "Wilbur becomes a country music star" plot outline. Why can’t Wilbur just fall in the shower, only to be found by Dawn six or seven months later?

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"And We're So Bored (That) We Could Die".

"I'm so lonesome
I could cry..."
Hear....

Well at least he doesn't wear his glasses in the shower. If you'll remember, he wore them while swimming . . . well, wading like a hippo . . . in the waters off Bogota Beach. (If you don't remember, it's because you wiped that panel from your consciousness because . . . the Speed-o incident.)

Meanwhile in Beautiful Italy, Harlan sells Dawn's passport on the black market.

Dear Wilbur:

GET. OVER. IT.

Signed Chester.

Meanwhile, at Mary's dinner with Dr Jeff...
My new patient would be perfect for you neighbor Wilbur. She just moved here from Bogota and doesn't know anyone. She's quite a character!

It takes one heck of a radio to bring in a broadcast from 1949, but I suppose it's better than watching Wilbur stomp to Florida Georgia line.

So this makes me think that Wilbur really didn't care that much about Iris at all, he just doesn't want to be alone and anyone will do. More reason not to have any sympathy for Wilbur.

Yahoonski said...

The only thing worse than watching Wilbur shower would be watching Ian shower. No, wait. Watching Wilbur and Ian shower together would be worse.

Thanks for that, Yahoonski. Now I'm sure you won't have a problem providing us with your cell number so that we can all give you a call in the middle of the night when we wake up with that nightmare.

Nance, thanks for the new title for Hank Williams' song. Because of this shower scene, I'm sure Hank is spinning in his country western grave.

Maybe Wilbur needs a long cruise on a doomed ship. That helped Dawn, didn't it?

Sandi Ego said...

That insanely high water pressure is simply not allowed in California. He probably brought home that shower head as contraband from Bogota. Conserve water, Wilbur, or we're reporting you to the condo board.

Have you heard about the lonesome loser Wilbore? Beaten by Latina hearts everytime...

Regina Wolfe-Parks said...

The first thought that came to mind was Wilbur should be singing "I'm Gonna Wash that Man Right outta my Hair" (from South Pacific, but changing it from "man" to Iris's name.)

The second thought is Fabiana and "cousin" Pedro have come to Santa Royale and have opened a line dance studio. Wilbur decides to take up line dancing and hilarity ensues.

At least we haven't seen a soapy, hairy Wilbur (yet).

Maybe Wilbur's listening to the Terry Bradshaw version of the song, mistaking it for Hank WIlliams. https://youtu.be/XTwS0WiKkqU

@fauxprof:
I think it's obvious that Wilbore draws on his comb-over hairs with a Magic Marker. There is no other explanation for those hairs staying in place under that fire hose spray.

Dawn Weston's Evil Twin said...

Be still my heart! Now I know what Fabiana saw in Wilbur! He is H. O. T. T. ... HOTT!!! ... Oh, wait ... NOOOOOOO!!!! Thoughts like that are ... incestuous! ... Now, I need a shower!

Who is Mary Worht?

LouiseF said...

I think this is the radio station Wilbur is listening to...http://www.katm.com/ Check out their blog commentary about how to tell how fresh your eggs really are!

Is that steam in the shower in panel 1? It's awfully thick. Looks more like smoke. Maybe the house is on fire. Ah well, whatever it is, it's all completed cleared up in p2, no doubt blasted away amazingly huge stream of water being put out by that shower head.
