Dangerous Wednesday

Blondie, 10/4/23

Look, I'm not going to say that this guy is a spitting image rendition of Javier Bardem as Anton Chigurh in No Country For Old Men, but his hair is weird in a way that's kind of adjacent to the way Bardem's hair was weird in that movie, and Chigurh's whole gimmick was that he would make people flip a coin and if they lost he would kill them? Which seems like a strange thing to reference in the syndicated newspaper comic strip Blondie but, you know, they gotta make hundreds of these a year, eventually they're gonna get strange with it. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, RIP Blondie Bumstead (1930-2023), you taught me that it was OK to be a flapper who marries above your class.
