To order a pizza rewards freeloading. Remember, these two imbeciles don't want to admit that they're not owed a fucking dime when they have to feed, clothe and house their children. The sulking man infant shares his imbecilic child bride's belief that the life of a child is a care-free romp where they fake helplessness and unhappiness to torment victim parents for a reason: they're mouthpieces for an awful woman who, in one of the pre-Patterson collections, had a 'sympathetic' parent get angry at her mother for sticking up for a child she'd thrashed because it's his fault she's too stupid to childproof her house.

And, as has been said before, Elly sees her home as a prison where she's trapped because she has to face the fact that she's a useless and willfully incompetent clod who could be replaced by a trained ape. I see a dope who went out of her way to not develop muscle memory because she's a toddler who thinks that meant something it didn't.

All this strip revealed was that Lynn couldn't come up with any emergencies a dentist might have to deal with, was unwilling to ask anyone or do any research, and instead went with Generic Workplace Issues that could have happened in any office.

Meanwhile- no, Elly, sorry, you have to take what for you is an L and admit that John has the right to be more tired than you for once. And for once, I mean you have to admit it for once, not that John has the right to be more tired than you. That's pretty much all days. It's pretty gross that Elly feels like she has to play I Can Top That instead of showing any level of sympathy. You're not convincing anyone that you are a career woman no matter how much you try, you ridiculous brat.

"I had to get April from school and then go back into town for groceries" sounds like "I picked April up from school, dropped her at home to be cared for by Elizabeth, and then drove by myself to the store instead of just taking April with me." Where is the school in relation to the town and the grocery store? Why are you so disorganized, Elly?

Because she expects to be able to treat her child like her servant.
