It’s been years since I’ve read Drabble, but the whole “masked wrestler” thing was my first thought, too.

I think Ooten Aboot nailed it. I don’t see the strip often
but I vaguely recall the Wrestling stint.

I recall Ralph doing some pro or semi-pro wrestling as a masked character. After all, how could he support a wife, three kids (one in college), a dachshund, a cat and a rare South American parrot disguised as a duck - to say nothing of his donut and burger habits - on a mall cop’s salary?

Yep, my first thoughts were - ugly insult and laundry day. (Comfy shirt works too.)

Marie has a pretty good answer. Another is that she’s wearing the shirt for no reason other than to set up the joke. (And I agree that she’s calling him ugly.)

Probably because it’s clean. I have three Halloween shirts, and I wear them frequently because I despise doing the laundry. Also, who really gives a frak what shirt I wear around the house? It’s not like I’m going to a party in an orange shirt with jack-o-lanterns on it; just hanging out, watching TV. Really. Really!
