Barney Google and Snuffy Smith 8/31/24

You know, I've been doing this blog for two decades now, and yet somehow until today I've never paused to ask myself the question, "I wonder how Snuffy and Loweezy's sex life is going?" It's immediately clear that there's no "good" answer to this -- all the possibilities summon up further unpleasant thoughts and imagery, in their own way -- but I'm here to tell you that the answer is "not well." You can understand why Loweezy might have thought that tonight was a night she was going to get lucky: panel one makes it clear that Snuffy wore his extra-tight overalls to flatter his shapely buttocks, although I guess that's just to entice Parson Tuttle to get wild and crazy and switch over from CBS to NBC tonight.
