...You guys aren't paid enough for his shit, you just aren't.

That was pure Irish Granny Nagging at it's finest! XD

I'm thinking Grey's just bitter - I'm betting he's got an absolutely darling little outfit and no opportunities to wear it.

 

[Thaluikhain]

Heh, ok, pay that one.

 

[Veldel]

Well I couldnt stop laughing this was one of the best comics you guys have done recently. Im laughing to hard

 

[Basement Cat]

That is going to be soooo true for soooo many families. Nice one!

 

[Something Amyss]

Hey, maybe we WANT to be nagged by our grandmothers! You ever think of that?

<.<

Another downside? The potential number of people such as I to bitterly glare at when going to crowded movie theatres and restaurants by ourselves has now literally been doubled. Hell, quadrupled if you count trans.

Prepare yourselves gays. And remember that this is the future you chose.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

Heh, never thought of it like that. Guess it goes both ways, huh?

Isn't the whole wanting of grandchildren a natural instinct of needing one's genetic material past down to a future generation? In fact, I'm pretty sure the baser instincts of heterosexuals is to mate with the opposite sex so that they can do just that. So there is a logical fallacy in the grandmother in the comic wanting to be 'like other grandmothers' by wanting her grandchild to adopt a non-genetic descendant.


Captcha: Cloud nine.
An appropriate choice considering that is where most homosexual couples are at right now with the Supreme Court decision.

I worry about marriage equality because I fear for the child caught in a never-ending loop of "Go ask your mother."

Why does no one ever think of the children?

Finally, homosexuals can be as cranky and miserable as straight married people! Huzzah!

Its all that negativity that brings people together. XD

 

[Mikeybb]

Great comic.

I can actually imagine this happening.

 

[Something Amyss]

Its funny because its true. No really, she won't shut the hell up and I'm going insane. We didn't listen! WE DIDN'T LISTEN!

Both my grandmothers were mouth-foaming homophobes.

Trade ya.

 

[Something Amyss]

You want my grandmother who thinks she's Mary Todd Lincoln and the other who isn't that homophobic but says shit that otherwise would make skinheads blush?

Seems like a fair trade. NO BACKSIES!

You haven't even heard about my grandparents besides the homphobia. Though I'm down to one grandmother now, so you may win by default.

Except on the racism count. I think my family can hold their own, even down a member.

Gays have been able to marry for a week now

Nope, grandmothers just love grandchildren they don't care where they came from, I know one likes getting adopted grandchildren so much that she says its her preference since she doesn't have to weight 9 months before trying to get her daughter to give her another one. Also many grandparents are much more interested in passing down their cultural heritage than their genetic.
