Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 08, 2020

Cher’s lounge haunted by Sonny.

I want to see more of Corinna and Hiawatha, although I’m not sure it will work out if they’re both “catchers”.

Who’s going to send the food to the jury when the kid’s parents finally sue the school district?

I recall Dr. Martha Pearl getting more panel time than she deserved remarking repeatedly that the butter knife incident was serious. Nothing serious has happened since the Radley girl passed away in the tragic auto accident. The only thing serious in Pearl Jam’s world is her shuffleboard league.

I REALLY hope this isn’t supposed to make it okay that the kid got expelled over a butterknife.

In all ŕeality , Who gives a damn about who paid for what and who sent the ice cream truck . It’s time to move on,nothing you can do can make what happened right. Everyone involved with getting the Mayor expelled live with your shame .

Just sayin’…

Justin the Janitor at Courtney’s high school on the CW’s “Stargirl” turned out to be a Golden Age superhero, namely Sir Justin of the court of King Arthur transported to the present day. He snapped out of an amnesiac reverie just in time to save the heroes from the villains.

Just sayin’ that some janitors, well…

P1, Meanwhile, the ants are feasting on the leftovers in the teacher’s lounge.

P2, Why does Mimi need a minifridge in her office again?

P3, I’m hoping it’s the email accepting the summer golf position at Milford CC.

I didn’t know that Gil even knew what email is, much less how to use it.

Rubin will cleverly repeat the stupid “who ordered the food” bit at least until Saturday, when a new, stupid, HvB-type story starts

Mimi doesn’t seem to be aware of the gigantic roach on her right knee

So the kids had pizza, subs, free drinks, and ice cream, all free, and not one of them wondered where it came from?

So just because Mimi is eating an ice cream bar at 8am we assume she sent the ice cream? Did she bring it from the game? Wouldn’t it melt? What else does she have in the freezer of that mini fridge? Good thing they all didn’t send pizza,

“Mr. Mercedes” is reponsible for the ice cream truck.

Gil gonna save the Mayor from community college?

P 2: Mimi is thinkin’ about the last time her and Pedro shared ice cream and good times by the pool-side while Gil was off playin’ pocket-pool with Kaz somewhere

Amazing how everybody perfectly ordered something different for the game and covered all the bases (no pun intended) without anybody knowing what anyone else was doing. Wouldn’t you think Mimi would have said to Gil, “hey, we should send ice cream for your players!”, instead of just doing it?

Also, how did she get an ice cream? She wasn’t at the game, and if she was, she sure couldn’t have saved it for the ride home or to the school. My bet is she gets all the ice cream she wants, as she has an “agreement” with the ice cream man. Pedro has competition.

And speaking of competition, this strip’s competition, Mopped Up Thorp has a new entry, and you can find it here:

Oh, now that the story is over, Gil has to do something to make it look like he was a vital part of this fiasco. Let me guess, he’s going to write an email to one of his contacts at State, or University, or whatever college The Mayor is interested in, and argue that his blemish should be ignored.

Sorry Bloggers, all those questions after every episode, R&W just told us by placing Kaz & Gil in the Cher unge. “Won’t find out until we grow.” Babe
