File today’s strip under “someone uttering a stilted, awkward line of dialogue in panel 2 to set up a weak “punchline” in panel 3 (think of Keisha and Cayla’s “pearl in the shell” exchange a few weeks ago)”. Really, what kind of “options” will Pa be treated to at Bedside Manor? The option of spoon feeding or a tube? Bingo or Mah Jongg? The option of being benignly neglected by the staff vs. being utterly disregarded by his family? Yeah, I guess those are better than no options at all. Poor Funky Winkerbean.
