Pluggers by Rick McKee for April 21, 2024

Isn’t a refrigerator icemaker kind of high-tech (even decadent) to a Plugger?

For some this is true ;-)

If there is any kind of problem that requires being fixed by a professional, a plugger won’t call one until after he’s made that problem much worse.

Well he bearly hear what you say.

Hmm, what’s to fix on an ice maker? When ours started acting up there were only two tests to run, both of which ended with – Ice Maker needs to be replaced. Which I did.

He heard “ice”. What else could it be?

There are a couple of ice-maker things that need long arms and-or extra height : changing the water filter [upper right-hand corner and has to be angled in evenly or from slightly above] and unsticking the mechanism when it gets frozen up. The little plastic gizmo is worn so some of the water drips over the side, freezes, and has to be knocked off [gently] so the mechanism will work. [It would be an easy fix, but they don’t make that particular plastic gizmo anymore.]

“Still a man hears what he wants to hear, And disregards the rest.” The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel.

I don’t think that’s limited to pluggers

Or we cannot hear if preferred

Misinterpret, for lick of a better word.

The Plugger has an icemaker?? As Joe says… “Come on, man…”

“Fixing the ice maker” means refilling the plastic ice cube trays and putting them back in the freezer.

Selective hearing. The ice maker on my mother-in-law’s fridge broke. She was told to buy a new fridge.

one of these days I’ll hook ours up. Didn’t want it when we bought the fridge but it came as part of the deal.

Serve him a glass of warm lemonade and he’ll get the message.

Needs a new filter?

Hey where is today’s Pluggers?

I’ve had fridges with ice makers, never one that worked.

Oh, oh, no new panel today yet and it’s 6:46 MDT.

I’ve never had an icemaker that operated properly. We buy bags of ice at the store.

They hear less than that actually. They don’t want to hear anything.

Has Pluggers quit GoComics??

Today’s says: A plugger has told his stories so often, even he’s tired of them.

Doggie at coffee bar tells Kitty:“THEN There was the time I… Oh, never mind."

Where is current strip?

What still no new Pluggers? This so unbearable!

Tuesday’s Pluggers

Chicken holding a bottle of Advil.

“If you can’t find your glasses, the remote or you keys, but always know where the Advil is, you’re a Plugger.”

Plugger artist is retiring! So no comics for now?

Boy things are really stuck here. Two days without a new Pluggers cartoon.

A Plugger has told his stories so often, he doesn’t even bother posting them on Go Comics anymore.

Where are the new Plugger ’toons?
