Poast new message in this thread
Date: February 18th, 2019 11:20 PM Author: Abnormal Genital Piercing It was on the front page of my paper's Sunday comics section, right under Peanuts, and later Calvin and Hobbes. It sucked, as far as I could tell (as a young child). (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4204650&forum_id=2#37805952) |

Date: February 18th, 2019 11:24 PM Author: Lemon rambunctious set Family Circus is for old women with the easiest "kids say the darndest thing" schtick ever.

but brenda starr was not much good...
neither was Dondi...and what about that little girl with the black frizzy hair...nancy, was that her name?
Dagwood Bumstead was marginal...his sandwiches were the only good thing about it...sarge and beetle bailey was also stupid...
dennis the menace was annoying...and the tv show was worse..
l'il abner was ok...
