Bad Machinery by John Allison for September 03, 2018

Jack is right smoking isn’t cool. Those commercials where they have people that have been smoking for years and suffer the consequences. Makes me glad I don’t smoke. “Hides cigs”

Hostile girls like her would cause most boys their age to scatter.

Linton, if you want the French Rat that badly, YOU go get the cig yourself. I mean, at the moment, you seem to be the only one THAT interested.

Linton seems a bit of a pillock at times, he should just go to the boys toilet, there’s bound to be lads with a clope or two to spare.

I love Linton’s body language in next to last panel. It really shoes a bit of mini-angst that is prevalent amongst teens.
