Mary Worth 3921

Jared was really cool yesterday when he asked "Dawnie" if she thought the gorilla was cute, but now his ketchupless french fries have cast him into a pit of gloom and he suddenly goes all caveman on Dawn. Of course, when her own food metaphor is under appreciated, Dawn jumps down into the pit of gloom with him and pukes on his shoes.

It's good to know that neither of these two monkeys have changed much despite two years of complete bliss.

It looks like the zoo burger joint has supply-chain and/or staffing shortages: no cutlery for the patrons. Don’t order an omelet, or spaghetti.

Jared, two years of wearing the same hoodie and hair that resembles an unmade bed don’t exactly enhance the “real feast” look.

Impressed by the baboons and cougars, Jared attempts to follow suit and assume the role of Alpha Male. He of course fails miserably.

No one in the Worthiverse ever gets a different hairstyle, and they rarely vary their wardrobe choices. A notable exception is Ian, who no longer wears his green textured jacket. Mr. Allora used it to resod the portion of lawn Mary destroyed by using too much aphid spray on the roses.

faux prof: Those jackets were very popular in Santa Royale at one time. Wilbur was actually wearing a full suit of Astroleisure wear on the day the Unita Del Mar sank (7/18/12). However, he changed his trousers before being rescued, and he lost his green jacket at sea. When last seen, the jacket had become one with the Great Mediterranean Plastic Garbage Patch. Now, back to curating my collection of tin foil hats…

I'm probably just stating the obvious, but there is a stark difference between the two panels. Don't get me started on the cloying "Dawnie", but they both sound affectionate in panel 1. In panel 2 Jared goes uncharacteristically macho and Dawn becomes defensively reactionary. Such head-turning switchbacks would be interesting ordinarily, but we all know how this will end. The only question is whether Dawn will have to eat Mary's muffins or maybe a salad for lunch.

Oh boy, Jared. If I were Dawn, you’d be wearing that strawberry soda. And while you were cleaning up, I’d be out looking for Mr. Hunky Monkey.
