That's an awfully passive sentence for such an aggressive attitude. Try this instead, "You ruined my life, you *&(^%* liar!" That's much more active. Oh, wait, you pretty much said it that way yesterday. Today's Full Strip

Smithers is using a different profanity today than he did yesterday. Yesterday he said "*&%$^" and today he said"*&^%#"
The same two symbols to start each time. Yes, I am actually trying to decipher the exact words he is saying. Nearly as difficult as my proof that I am not a robot words.
I like D-Dan the man with the giant hand. Perhaps he is pursuing vigilante justice, in a similar fashion to another cameo character.
You know, I think that all of this profanity is attracting a new, less desirable fan base to Mary Worth... and that's probably a good thing.
Like speedy@8:20 AM, I also compared Smithers's curse symbols of today with yesterday's. Is this a sign that I have too much time on my hands?
Speaking of hands, Smithers's are HUGE! Look at that chest hair, too! Not only has he slid into the gutter, he is regressing into a sub-human species. However, he did manage to adjust his tie somewhat from yesterday.
Whoa! That's deep, D-Dan!
You point to yourself when you say, "It's me!"
But you point to her when you say, "the sorry *@^%#"
Nice use of subtlety, you crazy lush!
Kit Kat, I prefer to think of it as time well-spent. If we had too much time on our hands, we would actually wind up like that *&^%# Smithers, publicly plastered at mid-day and seeking vengeance in a toney shopping district.
I was laid off from a job one time, many years ago, but never descended into anything worse than pick-up basketball with other jobless youth.
In fact, Smithers was not fired because he is a thief. He was fired because he is a lush.
Anonymous @10:22- you are right. No corporation would hire a man who:
a. wears an orange suit.
b. exposes his chest hair.
c. fails to shave.
d. swears at women in public.
e. keeps his likker in his jacket pocket.
My,Dan, what big teeth you have. Any chance you are going to bite Nola?
Boy, Mannequin sure gets around. Yesterday it looked like she might even be face-touching.
Perhaps the difference in profanity can be explained by the fact that "*&@%$^"is an adjective while "*&^%#" is a noun.
OR it's a numerical code. 872546 vs. 87653. What can it all mean?
Tomorrow I will be very disappointed if D-Dan doesn't call Nola a "*^&-%#)("
(That's 867-5309 in Worthiversian Mystery Code, BTW.)

Hey, D-Dan, is that a clip-on tie? Maybe Nola can help you pick out a sharp suit and real tie to wear to job interviews (or AA meetings).
@ Beagle Vet - Jenny!
I clicked on the magnified version of today's strip in the SPI and discovered that Nola is in serious need of an opthamologist! The poor girl has a severe lazy eye.
I like how Dan is still wearing his suit and tie. You never know when you could be called for a job interview! Maybe he is trying to project the image of a more uh... professional... homeless alcoholic.
Yawn. So more of this raving...
Let me guess: Nola will finally see the cause and effect of her always getting what she wants. Which will then segue to an image of Mary McSmug, telling her all about repercussions. We get it already!
Nola will certainly get her due. A black eye from Dan (as well as a whiff of his booze breath, a good tongue lashing and a piece of pie from Mary, as well as a suggestion that she might be better off in "sales".
So is Mary going to show up and give D-Dan the same lecture she gave Toby about being kind to Nola and try to understand where she is coming from?
DAN SMASH!
I'm not sure if he's drunk and/or unshaven; it looks like he's got smallpox, which might explain why he was fired.
I just can't take anymore of this &*#(@%^ profanity. Mary needs to get a bar of Lifebouy and clean up some dirty mouths.
