And what could be more politically correct than hating your spouse?
Answer: Hating your kids and borrowing shit from your neighbors and never returning it.
Oh, goody! Today's Momma is a perfect way to wrap up this dip into Momma. They're back to the family counselor!
Momma says, "Thank you, doctor! That sounds like the perfect solution!" Then, pointing to her children, "One of you will have to go."
Hmmmm .... go where, I wonder? Just leave? That's a good solution in that it eliminates 1/3 of her problem. But does it, really? Won't they just fight over who it is who has to leave, causing her even more headaches? She will need to cowboy up and pick one of them, or they will never figure it out.
Now, why was she waiting on the doctor's advice to let one of them go? She doesn't seem that fond of them, so she could have done this a long time ago? And, do they all live at home? Or just Francis? I will admit to not having Momma in my daily newspaper for many years. So, it could be that all of them live at home and she's now kicking one of the three out.
Or maybe "One of you will have to go" means that one of them will have to go in to see the counselor. That doesn't make sense, though, because they are already in the waiting room. I'd assume they were there to see the counselor in the first place.
Maybe they are constipated, and "one of you will have to go" means they will have to, you know . . . go.
Anyway, I think it's most likely that she's going to be kicking one of them to the curb. The humor here, of course, is that that is TERRIBLE family counseling advice. In panel #1, we are supposed to think, "Ah, Momma's finally got it figured out!" Then panel #2: Doh! We realize that's bad advice and it's not really going to help her, and . . . you know, it's, uhm, funny or whatever.
It looks like someone with some real, professional skill has figured out something I've been trying to say:
(Liberty Meadows, by Frank Cho -- the women are all rather, well, uhm, stacked (sort of like Blondie), but I still enjoy this strip very much.) Yep, all successful modern newspaper comics ARE sweet, bland, and politically correct. True that. I just find it amusing that bad marriages are politically correct. No one ever complains about them. Except me on this blog. Maybe I will write a letter to my local paper. Why not? I've got my thoughts spelled out already.
Aw yeah! I'm starting to get the rage pent up again! Thank you Frank Cho! Love ya!

To my knowledge, as a former daily Momma reader (truth comes out, but we are talking ages 6-10 or so...) I believe only Francis lives at home (if even he does).
And no, I don't believe that there have been 18,000 Marmadukes.
