I thought the first panel showed him with moobs until I realized those were his crossed arms.
Oh no
You know that's illegal right?
Ew sandpaper kisses
Manly men condition their beard so it is softer than the kitten.
Hey, don't body shame! 🧔♂️
I made the manliest batch of chocolate chip cookies for Christmas Eve and I'm gonna bake a manly apple pie on Saturday. Hungh!
Snickerdoodles are the manlier cookie. Change my mind.
Give me Sandies or give me death
Everything I do is a manly action because I am a man.

Based and red pilled
I only do dishes for certain people...
That last panel tho… 🤨
Without a hint of irony, one of the best male role models in history.
It’s honestly such a weird show. The “hero” is an incompetent jerk who constantly screws up and relentlessly bullies his most loyal friend who is vastly more competent in every way.
At least they gradually tone down the bullying as time goes on and the teasing on Tool Time becomes more of a two way street.

It's hilarious how much this was based on Bob Vila and Norm Abram from This Old House - although the contrast between Vila and Abram was much more severe.
Watching a perfect person wouldn't be super interesting long term.
Watching a imperfect person struggle in situations when you know how to fix it.... engagement forever!
I get that. But usually the hero is someone who underestimates their own ability and learns to overcome challenges by believing in themselves. Here we have the opposite, which seems more fitting for a villain.
That's a tired trope. By giving him character flaws they created a lot of opportunities to show personal growth, and teach lessons. His anonymous neighbor was usually the one to throw down the wisdom which he would take to heart.
Tim was cartoonishly flawed- the way he treated everyone was awful, even after all that character growth. His kids. His wife. Al. Even his wisdom-dispensing neighbor.
Most of the wisdom that was dispensed was forgotten by the next episode.
Which, I think might just have been the actor’s fault more recently he was on another show my parents tried to get me to start watching and I had to walk out of the room- the sexism was that bad.
But it was the 90’s and sexist pigs was one of the only typecasting for male leads in sitcoms. Of the ones I watched, I think fraiser was the only one that wasn’t…. But that was a gay comedy…
(Don’t judge I was in middle school, I wasn’t the one picking the shows.)
Since when is Frasier gay? Sophistication isn't gay, despite having some overlap.
The show. Not the character

It was understated, and another way to say it better might be “gay comedy for straight people”, but a fairly large number of the writers and characters were openly lgbtq.
Maybe the show just wasn’t dicks to lgbtq, but it was the 90’s and that’s remarkable enough. It’s been a while, maybe I should watch it again.
Seems like a cool show, what's its name?
“Home Improvement”. The man pictured is Richard Karn who plays the character “Al Borland”.
It's not gay if you do it in a Manly fashion!
Me: Picks up my cat to hug
My cat: Wtf?!? How dare you! tries to leap off after 10 seconds of confusion
You gotta reverse psychology the cat. Get a teddy bear. Hug that. Cat may become jealous and want a hug.
And if that doesn't work, hey, you have a new friend to give a hug to when you need one.
... keep it away from the cat though.

This will really spark the cat's curiosity
