EDIT: Changed panel 2 from "Buffet" to "Steakhouse" to eliminate the Chinese Food confusion at the end. Many thanks for the feedback on that one!! 😁

I've always thought this one was not that relatable outside of our house, but I saw a page repost it recently and it did really well; so it inspired me to give it the remaster treatment!

Here's the updated BONUS:

The Before and After!

The original got the job done in 5 panels, but the speech-bubble to character ratio was a bit off. These days I'd rather have more panels so each has room to breathe without getting squashed by the text!

It also always annoyed me that I didn't have a wider panel to do the Phoenix Wright meme justice!

I love being able to add Cooper into these remasters now that he's grown into more than a Maggie Simpson that meows! With an extra row to work with, I was able to split the 4th panel in two, adding Coop's chanting and the kids disappointed faces.

It's still a super weird comic! 😅 Always makes me laugh how they can't stick to who's who in their imaginary courtroom analogy!

Okay, weird thing just popped into my head (it's clean, I swear) I woman who sings while riding her bike, would she be called a minstrel cyclist? As a play on how in olden times, Minstrels were people that sung ballads into battle for morale. Like turning the personal touchy subject into something you'd laugh at having another meaning. Sorry if I touched nerves.

Great! Now I want Chinese food! Edit note: this is also the same dialogue without children in case anyone needed to know what married life is like.

I feel you should've specified what buffet the dad wanted, because when I hear buffet I automatically assume Chinese, so when he said Hunan Dragon I thought he won, but then looking at the original I saw it was a steak buffet (is that a thing? do those exist?)

This is a funnier version of our house every night of the week 😂😂😂

but most buffets have burgers in them so you could have both?

and you drew Joel folding his ears to the rear to look more like Phoenix Wright also fits the angry cat he is.
