Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for June 08, 2019

Which teacher is the lounge for?

Still in contention for Conference despite all of these controversies. Amazing. Maybe Mimi deserves a TC badge.

CJ…. make sure you read “BLONDIE” today. I think you will find it to your liking!

“I’m being sarcastic. I want those TC pins gone.”

Nothing like a Gil sighting these days!!! By the way the boys baseball season has been cancelled due to lack of interest and none have a TC Pin.

P1, An increasingly rare appearance by the namesake of the strip.

P2, Maybe that should wait until you finish second in The Valley, Mimi.

P3, Sorry, Mimi there’s only room for one State Champion Coach in this school.

The ants are swarming all over this crummy story.

Volleyball and winning softball, what books can accomplish those?

Do the teacher coffee cups at other Valley Conference schools have as much dialogue as the Milford mugs? Much like a Kevin Pelwecki launch angle, this story line will soon be gone, gone, gone.

In all reality , A question to all my fellow snarkers, Has there ever been a series of strip or even one strip featuring a Milford graduation ceremony ? Inquiring minds want to know .

And Gil breaks his vow of silence, after months he says something. And all it is is to let us know that he wanders the halls keeping track of how many kids are wearing the stupid, er, I mean highly sought after buttons.

Is this the first time we’ve seen a MIMI mug? Or maybe it says MINI, as in MINI-GIL?

The guys are even wearing them during swim class.

Great, so now instead of the pins being a way to recognize students with notable achievements, they can be used to ostracize kids who spend their afternoons doing mundane things like working part time at the industrial solvents factory or caring for giant toddlers.

P3: “Thing” holds Mimi’s cup for her

Mimi needs to “re-energize” Linda Carr for volleyball? Get some uppers from Bobby – er, Robby Howry.

P2 – Look out! Gil’s about to splash scolding coffee on his hand. This could affect his ability to coach the rest of the season. AH HA HA HA HA HA, as if.

And speaking of coffee, grab yourself a cup (but don’t splash it) and relax as you read the newest two editions of Mopped Up Thorp: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

I think it’s cute the way they call each other Coach Thorpe.

And on top of that YOU? Expect me to be great in bed?

And by the way Mimi get your feet off the couch! Where Were You Raised Milford?

Would be cool if Mimi got Linda so amped for volleyball that she quit softball ensuring Milford takes second place in the Valley.
