Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for March 21, 2020

P4 – “If you knock Chris down in the hall every time you see him, eventually you’ll win.”

P1, Hmm, could this be HVB the later years?

P2, Everybody wants a little piece of Alexa except Chris, or Mr. and Mrs. Thing.

P3, Yeah, and I want to be out of this story, too but we’re both stuck here until at least Monday. At least I’ll be gone soon, you’re stuck here until the bitter, disappointing end.

Alex Trebeck comes to Milford for the big showdown. Is it Chris or Alexa who can recite more pi digits?

P4: “…. people around here haven’t forgot about you shovin them into lockers….”

Let’s see….“because of Chris’ performance on the AP midterm, he now has an insurmountable lead on you. You should have let him get convicted of cheating.”

Of course this doesn’t make sense because it’s not a final grade that would count for anything, plus there are still final grade to come for every class they’re taking. And since it doesn’t make sense, I’m confident this has a good chance of coming true.

Alexa is the apple in the eye of the female faculty. First, Mimi goes dominatrix sans the crop, and now Patty Hand’s feeble attempt showing empathy.

The one thing Snark Nation can take from this season’s villain is Teddy is perceived as insignificant. Alexa noted his little group. Doesn’t get much smaller than wingman Art. Now Counselor Patty Hand patronizes her describing DeMarco’s plot. Ms. Hand also has matching eyewear to accentuate the outfits she shares with roommate Marjie Ducey.

Alexa we discovered you got all 6 new questions wrong and every other question right. We know you had the test and are suspended.

The counselor is an Anti-Aesop type: no morals

Some good banter on here to wrap up a terribly lame story line. Kudos to all.

“Hmm. About that…”, says the touchy-feely guidance counselor, as she removes her glasses and shakes her hair, “there might be a way you could boost your GPA a few more percentage points…”

Would be funny if some third dark horse kid overtakes them both. I nominate Shimura!

Holy crap! Alexa has some serious man hands in P2. And speaking of hands, I’ve got to hand it to me for today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

Also, I’m close to finalizing the March Madness tournament. Any more entries? Do we go back further than 2010? If you want to go back further, than you need to do the research. And don’t pick someone from 20 years ago, it should be so there’s not a gap. (In other words, 2009, then 2008, etc.)

Phoebe it was so creepy ,she kept invading my space moving in closer and closer then she touched my hand leering at me like she wanted to do bad things to me ,in all reality . Wow, let’s go to the Bucket and eat, maybe that will take your mind off of it Alexa .

Geez, the counselor aged about 30 years between yesterday’s strip and today. Is that what working for Milford High does to a person?

…so much winning! I’m sick of it, so much!

Mrs. Lark shall NOT be disparaged here! So much winning.
