    Shucks?

  2. shootzee says:

    somehow, i don’t think that’s it. ;)

  3. Jeff Payton says:

    I think I am going to add ‘Jefbot Dad’ to my Christmas list…he’s way cool!

  4. shootzee says:

    heheh. i’m sure he’d like that, jp.

  5. eleventeen says:

    The stark plain background in the second panel serve to emphasize the loss of speech… amazing.

  6. shootzee says:

    thanks, eleventeen. happy that’s the response you got from it.

  7. xinda says:

    “STUPID!!!”

  8. xinda says:

    Mom, just throw Dad’s clothes away, thats what I do with Teds….

  9. Amber says:

    Cute! I love Mombot’s dumbfounded look in the second panel! And of course Jefbot has a handheld computer device, but always with ears alert :)

  10. shootzee says:

    thanks, amber! maybe i should change my mom’s gravatar to that image from the second panel. hmmm…

  11. John K says:

    You’re a good woman, Mombot Brown

  12. shootzee says:

    that she is, john k. that she is.

  13. Hahahahaha!! Super funny, bot! I love the bots! Your mother’s expressions are priceless. If Mombot wasn’t thinking, “Drat?,” can you tell us what she WAS thinking…..? ;)

  14. shootzee says:

    only mombot knows what’s behind that expression, and she’s not telling.

  15. funnyshaffer says:

    Oh no she didn’t!!! Wow, I didn’t know Mombot was so sassy… Excellent strip! You just can’t pull the wool over your fathers eyes… He knows what he likes… …and what he likes is catalog clothes!

  16. shootzee says:

    i don’t think we’ve seen the half of mombot’s sassiness in these pages yet, funnyshaffer!

  17. jhorsley3 says:

    As always, great comedic timing. Love the last panel!

  18. shootzee says:

    glad you liked it, jh3.

  19. Sonitan says:

    My mom’s word for this kind of situation is: WAR!! She most probably follow Xinda’s advice but in her own evil way: burn it!! (Trust me, she does what she says!!)

  20. shootzee says:

    sounds like your mom and xinda would get along quite well, sonitan!

  21. reynard61 says:

    Could it be “@#$%!!!”? How about “*BLEEP*!!!”? Maybe “[CENSORED]!!!”? So many choices…

    (Still posting as “Reynard” on non-Gravatar sites.)

  22. shootzee says:

    ha! yes, i think it’s that last one, reynard.

  23. Mr Mojo says:

    Heheh, who uses Shucks anymore!

    I would think mombot had more than one word to say. :p

    Nice one with the stunned mom in the 2nd frame :)

  24. Mr Mojo says:

    Oops I meant who uses Drat! XD

    Sorry mombot :)

  25. shootzee says:

    could’ve been worse, Mr Mojo. other words mombot might have used include, “dagnabbit!” “curses!” or “suffering succotash!”

  26. Sonitan says:

    O_o Oh god, what is Xinda is really MY mom’s daughter?! Switch at birth with one of my game-obsessed brothers?! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!! I don’t wanna two evil people such as mom and Xinda together in my house!!!! *runs away in fear*

  27. shootzee says:

    i think the two of them under the same roof might just be a harbinger of the apocalypse, Sonitan!!!

  28. Shan M says:

    Poor Mombot. I would just sneakily throw things out and start replacing them. Good luck :)

  29. shootzee says:

    ha! well, we’ve been seeing a sneakier side to mombot, lately. so she might just take your advice, Shan. ;)

  30. xinda says:

    a. i’m going to find sonitan’s mother & make her my new best friend. b. XEVA wants her own gravatar. NOW!

  31. shootzee says:

    a. sounds like you two would get along just peachy. b. tell xeva i’m working on it.

  32. Eptha says:

    As usual Jeffbot, great strip! I can’t quite figure out what Mombot’s expression says in the last strip…it’s almost a hurt expression that says “you should know me better than that.”

  33. shootzee says:

    heheh. yeah, eptha, that’s what mombot might be saying on the outside, but inside it’s a whole ‘nuther story.

  34. Mr Mojo says:

    Heheh, Curses would work well, especially if Xinda was saying it with her evil villain face on :)

  35. Lor says:

    Holy crap! Look at all of these comments.
