Mary Worth 4041

Thank you, Captain Obvious. If it weren't best in the long run, Mary Worth never would have advised it!

No one besides Mary and Jeff are on the boardwalk, just like no one else was boating or at the Bum Boat, but we’ll have them for the rest of the week. It’s been a long run of recycling and awkward dialogue.

Only a complete non sequitur can save us now!

Max, accompanied by Greta, rushes up, barking hysterically and Incomprehensibly (well, duh, he’s a dog).

Mary quickly assesses the situation. “Jeff, it’s Saul! He must be in trouble!”
Jeff: “What is it, boy? Did Saul fall down a well? The stairs? Out of bed? Over the shark?”
Max, resignedly: “Arf! (translation, I’m a dog, Doc, you figure it out)”

Mary: “Did you enjoy your dessert, Jeff? Isn’t the moon lovely tonight?”
Greta: (bites Mary’s ankle).

Tune in tomorrow for another exciting episode of Banality Theater, when Mary utters, "It was for the best," and Jeff replies, "All's well that ends well."

Scottie McW - and possibly "it's so cute when the little people think their lives will matter in the Reign of Mary".

Dr Jeff: "I'm glad I'm not one of the little people!"

Mary: "Of course you're not, dear."

These two ARE actually made for each other: deluded, platitudinous, pompous and utterly devoid of anything to talk about other than their gratitude for having nothing to talk about in their own lives. Meddling, a shared bite of rubbery monkfish and a semi-annual boat ride to commemorate a few months of meddling... more moronic platitudes and now some meddling by proxy to keep these dessicated lovers going.

Where is Charterstone? On the water?

Seriously, fingers firmly crossed for all in Florida today.

Maybe someone's Magic Marker could send Hurricane Ian to Santa Royale

Great comments today, everyone! I love how we can keep ourselves entertained when MW turns stale(er)..

Suddenly,

Jeff: "Geez Mary, what's that smell?"

Mary: "I told you that puffer fish tasted funny."

I don't understand why they are gossiping about Dawn. Do middle-aged men usually care about the tedious love lives of people they don't know? I know Dawn briefly dated Jeff's son, but that was yonks ago.

I don't know why Mary was so self-congratulatory last week. All she really does is gossip.

In the long run, we're all dead.
