Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for March 06, 2020

Okay, so I guess tomorrow one of them will mention dumbass bully offering them the exam. Then the other will say, “me too!” And they will start to devise a plan to take him down. This will be more boring than if Chris was framed for cheating. Which wouldn’t have even remotely worked anyway. Predicting which stupid route this strip is going is getting difficult.

And speaking of predicting, it doesn’t take The Great Carnac to predict that today’s issue of Mopped Up Thorp is available, right here: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

P1, Hey you two, keep it down! People are trying to study.

P2, Alexa, “Who do you think you’ll satisfy with that, Chris!”

Chris, “Me, darlin’!”

P3, The readers certainly agree with you, Alexa.

Nah, they’re both going to blow the midterm because they lose a night studying boinking under the library table.

P2- Chris goes anti-Vulcan with the right hand. Live for the moment and cheat like there’s no tomorrow.

In all reality , P3 Que up and play in the background The Eve of Destruction while Alexa confides in Chris she has no hopes or dreams for the future , only death ! Chris replies Neat, me too .

P3: Confirmed.

P 3: So true. Each story out-dumbs the previous story

Do they have it bad now? They’re young, smart, and physically gifted. How can it get much better??

P1: Is that a velvet scrunchie Alexa is wearing?

P2: “ Her bouquet cleaved his hardened shell..,”

(I know I went here a few weeks ago but bookshelves trigger me)

P3: I think something is brewing here and not just a study budy

P3 strikes me as really dark. And what does she mean by “for us”? Overachievers can never be happy? Maybe Gil should give another one of his anti-suicide pep talks.

What’s with the “Hey, hey, I’m really studying…don’t shoot” pose in P2?

P-2: Alexa, being so so smart, realizes that Chris’ vest is a satire on her blessings and smashes him in the mouth.
