Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for April 16, 2019

Too bad they stink at softball. Looks like it’s official — first story in a long time that focuses on the girls’ team. Is is time to track how long Gil has been missing?

Pedro the pool boy knows all about Mimi’s hidden talents.

This is just painful.

P1, So The Cow Judge has to supplement her income at craft shows?

P2, If only we were good at softball.

P3, I hope that means that they’re going to skip the rest of the year.

P3 “Too cool for school”, seriously? Somebody is not speaking up, there has to be someone that it is into competitive jump roping!!!

In all reality , MimI asks each girl what her hidden talents are, some of the more interesting are playing handbells, making pottery , tagging buildings with graffiti , baking cookies and smoking reefer .

P4-…….and too legit too quit!

Źzźzzzz….

I was right! She’s missing scrimmages due to knitting! And I thought I was being ridiculous.

P4: Uh, I mean, we’re too lame for school

Now concentrate on softball, y’all.

You can’t be too cool if you are being featured in this strip. Both teams are 1-0 though.

OK girls lets form a circle, hold hands and sing Kumbaya…

Priority readjustment required here! Craft fair?

…only Herk the Mauler or the peacock can save this drivel…UNLESS we get out to Milford CC and check on the showers there!BTW, this is shaping up to be in the top five in the pantheon of bad stories, I can’t think of too many with this early consistent lameness…

Uh….. is it just me (and maybe I have watched too many WWII movies) but doesn’t the marking on that hat look a familiar symbol? (think black uniforms)

Tomorrow we get to see what’s her name complain to her boyfriend, while the boyfriend pretends to listen as he tries to dip his fry in her milkshake.

These kids have presumably known one another for years. Why are all these talents hidden? For example, Jamila (?) has been knitting things forever, and only now does her handiwork make its debut. When people are that enthusiastic about a hobby, they talk about it, they don’t keep it a secret.

Yikes, this is so bad. How long do we have to wait to find out that unlike her teammates, Linda hates her Saturday activity, which is semi-involuntary? And then what? So what?

P-2 Art Critics: I know it’s supposed to be a desk, but if you do a quick glance, it looks like she’s standing in front of a casket.
