What, you never heard of a honeymoon trip to Paris?
Let’s see…Paris and honeymoon. No, I don’t believe anyone has ever considered this before. (Certainly not either one of these dunces.) But I think you’re on to something here, Tom. Possibly a Paris honeymoon would be fun. Maybe even romantic!
Interesting how the changes make his hands appear to be even more grotesquely big. If she’s into choking as sexual play, she’s found the right guy.
I’m often amazed how much color–particularly good color–can make a difference and highlight aspects of the art. Plus, Charlton’s printing was generally subpar. So, that could be a factor too.
Yeah, until then, “twinning” meant “giving birth to twins,” but now it means “accidentally having *sex* with your twin sister!!”
Hmm. You could “twin” both ways—have twin babies with twin sisters. But, now that I’ve written that, I find that just a little past creepy. I’m thinking of those awkward family gatherings for future Thanksgivings!
“I’m just a Farmer, but I’m going to have a concert here with about 400,00 people and I want you to serve breakfast.”
Her response: Call Grubhub, Mister!
I thought she was your OTHER other sister!!
Think again, pal. Her other sister is married to your brother. Not that brother, your other brother–the one who used to be married to my mom. Not my real mom. My other mom who used to be married to…
The other John wouldn’t say that!
The other John is my evil twin. Or maybe it’s the other way around–I forget.
What about the other other John?
“What about the other other John?”
That’s another other story.
Maybe if he offered her some “first rate buckwheat” and some hoop skirts?

Wow!!! I’m seriously floored. There’s something very touching and yet awkward and heartbreaking about that ad.
