Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Are we talking expulsion or suspension? The suspense of either is killing me and they are going to make us wait until Monday to find out, since his father hasnât show up and that is when sh.t is going to hit the fan,
In all reality , P 1 whatâs wrong with Gil ? Itâs either bad gas or he canât stand to see how a parent defends their child from bad things happening to them.
P1- Gilfather is watching the clock wondering how long this farce will go on as Dr. Pearl yammers on about 23 skidoo or flappers, gin joints or something that roared in the 20âs. 1920âs.
P3: Boy, do they ever know Mike eats on the way to school.
Doc Pearl is just using the knife as an excuse. Sheâs really going to throw the book at Mike because she used to teach Home Ec, and he didnât know what Home Ec is.
Gil is bored by all this, so in panel 1 he practices poses for the statue of him that he feels Milford will no doubt eventually commission. Today itâs âWooden Indianâ.
Meanwhile, out in the hall, Rooney sits back and snickers to himself ââŠthisâll teach that punk to quit âeffing around in MY classâŠâ, which is pretty gutless. My HS basketball coach in the 70âs, if he got wind of a player doing something like this in a class, would discipline the kid by chewing him out in front of the team and then making him run for most of the practice, something that they would remember way more than a meeting with some dried-up, old administrator. Of course, I suppose that in todayâs sniffling sensitive world, that would be considered child abuse.
In the Gil-verse this story is really moving along. He ate his breakfast 8 days ago and we have not heard the suspension verdict yet. Gil with his Mount Rushmore pose.
Sorry, I donât have much sympathy for whatever happens to this dunderhead. He grew up under these rules regarding bringing knives and such to school. He knew better. He just didnât think because he didnât have time, and thatâs a choice.
I graduated in â73. Growing up back then in our school district you could carry a pocket knife to school. You couldnât carry a âswitch bladeâ knife or any kind of pocket knife with a âlock openâ blade. We never had any police officers in schools and I really donât recall ever seeing anyone have either of the two types of banned knives either. I guess we were like Beaver and afraid of a violation going on our âpermanent recordâ. Which by the way to this day I have never seen that!
STILL WAITING to find out what advice Mayor McCheese got from Kaz way back at the start. Hopefully it was Kaz telling him âbring your breakfast to school in the morning if you donât have time to eat, what harm could it be?â
I guess this is one of those âtopical, teen-oriented issuesâ the strip purports to be about and it certainly has inspired a lot of comments, but whatâs with all of the seriousness? Who are you people and what have you done with the snarkers?

The judge she smiled when she picked up her pen
Ninety-nine years with Daddy Bader in pri-son
Ninety-nine years underneath that ground
But I canât forget that day I shot that sangwich down
Come on you hotheads you listen to me
Stay off that creamy and let that chunky be!

So did Mr. Rooney just decide to GET this kid because he was annoyed that he acted up in class? Is that the plot?

I hope Mr. Knappe walks in tomorrow while heâs eating something disgusting while carrying a knife.
And speaking of disgusting, it disgusts me to hear that not everybody reads Mopped Up Thorp. That doesnât include you of course.
