    She’s getting back at you for all the times you ragged on her, Michael. Deal with it.;-D

    Elizabeth has magic powers. All she has to do is touch that ketchup gob on Michael’s shirt and it magically disappears. She should be doing the laundry and not Elly.

    I don’t understand what the last line is meant to communicate. Could somebody please explain it to me?

    That is highly annoying when you’re trying to have a serious conversation. On the other hand, Mike set himself up so well with that I don’t think I could have resisted either.

    Lynn’s Comments: I loved drawing Elizabeth’s face in the last panel. Here I stretched the character’s face into an impossible laugh. It’s not physically accurate–but it feels right. Later, when my drawing became more “realistic” I lost this wonderful elasticity.

    Okay, it’s a comic strip. In real life, the “getting back at you” is probably one of the more destructive behaviors people engage in. I remember in 9th grade a bully who had given me a hard time needed to know about an assignment and nobody else present had the same class. I gave him the info and he never bothered me again.

    Does anyone remember how much time boys that age would spend in front of a mirror in the HS boys’ room adjusting the look of their hair? I didn’t, but some guys did it forever.

    Why so worried about hair? You need a helmet to go with your motorcycle, Michael!

    There is a commercial were the guy is on a date and his T-shirt collar is out of shape. I would think guys wouldn’t go out like that, especially since they spend so much time in the mirror. (Commercial trying to sell fabric softener.)

    Sorry, bro, but that was low-hanging fruit and way way too easy. You deserved it!

    Payback’s a bitch, Elizabeth. You might not learn that tomorrow, but sometime around, oh, maybe….April!

    I remember my mother buying some “Dippity-Do” hair gel to try to get my impossible hair to behave. It didn’t work very well. Back then we didn’t have the tubes of cement that actually can hold my hair in place nowadays! (Now that my hair is short and easier to manage, lol!) I don’t remember my brothers ever coming near it – but then they all had “flat tops” that my dad (and the school) insisted on.
