Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 25, 2020

“And it turns me on!”

“Oh, and here are your butter knives. The Mayor sent them to me from the State U. cafeteria.”

Now I’m going to bed and I will be expecting only one visitor, get my drift?

…[H]ere’s your Chance,” she says. I’d pay a dollar to see Chance Macy walking in from the next room to cool the tension.

Or…

If one of the two “sees the light” on his own and defuses the situation… which would it be?

“Take a Chance on Me ?” How about Dodgeball with a football ?

Once my brothers were fighting in the living room and broke the volume slider off the TV. Had to adjust it with a tooth pick from then on. Take it outside!

This is beyond stupid!!!

My money’s on Rapp. He’s a sneaky little turd like Neidermeyer.

In all reality , OK , Audio Visual Club , Future Filmmakers , ready, we’re rolling Are You Ready To RUMBLE !

Now now fellows let’s not resort to fisticuffs! What say you lads? How about butter knives at forty paces?

This girl is street smart! Of course, they’ll see how silly the whole conflict is.

“Well, if you’re too chicken to fight, then call off your O line buddies and starting thinking about Milford, the school I pretend not to care about!”

Good point- there’s a Black Friday sale at Ikea shortly.

P 4: “… uh, so are you…. that’s why we came over in the first place…”

So the authors are promoting violence as solution to problems teens encounter? Guess you’ll see more fights in high schools now! #violenceneversolvesthings

“…the furniture’s cheap. Mom’s gonna burn this to the ground like the last three places. I think it’s ’cause she really likes a mosh pit/pyro vibe. Some guy named Soto is setting his amp up by the pyre in the back yard. Kaz is here!”

It’s not like it’s the first time I’ve said it, but this is really stupid. First of all, where have they been “having their teammats do their fighting for them?” I don’t recall them encouraging anything. Other than, “sit with me at the volleyball match!”

And people here were impressed with her plan. Now it turns out to be telling them to fight in her living room? Dum with a capital B. I also wasn’t aware that it was okay to trash your house if it’s a rental. Apparently her mom isn’t liable for damage? The owner is a moron.

Lastly, check out the color version. It looks like their couch is made out of Astroturf.

And speaking of couches, you can read today’s Mopped Up Thorp from the comfort of your couch. Or chair. Or standing on your head even.
