Gay Old Time

In vintage ads, marriage is always teetering on the brink of destruction. One wrong choice of sandwich topping might send it over the edge.

@GayOldTime
Goal this week: try to work in the phrase “you sil!”

@nightscotsman Another one for the quiz game “1940s slang or gay slang”?

@GayOldTime Poor Betty. Bob needs some serious counselling for his anger issues. He also needs a decent haircut. North Korean chic isn't a good look on him.

@GayOldTime Panel 4: “Cad!” yelled Betty, as she stuffed a can of deviled ham down Bob’s throat. “Make your own 🤬 lunch from now on!”

@SunnJax “Rad!" cried the OP at this upheaval of 1940s gender norms

@thefalcon That section of the supermarket has a lot of mysterious things in cans and jars — a cabinet of curiosities.

@GayOldTime That brings memories, the product not the ad. I had quite a few sandwiches with deviled ham as a kid back in the day, usually blended with Cheez Whiz.

Oh, and heaven forbid wife gets hubby the wrong coffee. . .

@GayOldTime As Dan Savage would say, “DTMFA, Betty!”
