The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for October 12, 2018

Lester always was the class cut-up.

Well you don’t have to be so snippy about it.

He was just cutting the paper down to size before the rock showed up.

Next he’ll be cutting class…

The punishment was a bit sharp….

but sometimes you do have to be blunt with the little ones.

This group looks well handled.

I know it can be hard to control scissors, in the early years…

especially if the material is tough.

But allowed to go wild, they could eventually become unhinged, or end up in some sort of fringe movement.

The teacher should be more concerned about running with scissors.

The shear arrogance.

Professor rock will put a stop to this behavior

Go easy on him; he’s actually a pretty sharp kid.

He seems a bit dull.

The string will tie up the cutter upper. Then the rock will crush him/her.

We now know who the class cut-up is.

Even though you’re safety scissors, NO RUNNING to the back of the line!

The start of a Twisted Scissors music video.

Well, at least we don’t have to worry about clipping today’s cartoon.

So the teacher held the Mayo and let Metzenbaum go first?
