Last Word

Illustrated Idioms Series

The Illustrated Idioms is a project commissioned by my father. As dads are wont to do, he and his siblings, along with their spouses, decided to give each other nicknames based on their personality traits; specifically, the little quirks they use to annoy each other the most.

Some people just need to have the Last Word. In fact, the one family member who initially managed to score a compliment with Ageless Wonder couldn't keep the crown for long. The lengths they will go to win a debate, even if it means arguing from six feet under, earned them this brand-new nickname.
