Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 12, 2022

Anyone else as confused as I am? And not about Milford winning, although that too…

I’ve been confused ever since Henry came on board

(blinks hard) Okay, anyone who’s confused by your average COMIC STRIP really needs to retake 7th grade English. C’mon, folks, is there a way to interpret P2 other than “Fair enough, Keri thinks that Tobias is way cute, and like many a freshman, gets flabbergasted when talking to The Boy She Thinks Is Cute?”

Keri dating a trans? I’ve GOT to see how this one turns out.

P1 The ants go wild! Ummm…it looks like you missed a spot there, Mop.

P2 In what way?

P3 “Then afterward, how about you show me your “dig” technique while I settle in at third?”

P2 Coach Ochoa asserts her authority by requiring the front-line players to keep their hands in the air and shuffle-step until the next match to emphasize the importance of defending at the net. Meanwhile, Toby raises a hand not realizing what is happening, but wanting to fit in.

Keri experiences her first melting face. Then she and Toby ride their 10 speeds to The Bucket for a burger and malted. Of course GilPa slipped her a couple of bucks.

Looks like Gil’s statue of liberty play fooled ’em again

Coaches Held Hostage: Coach Kaz, Day 80 of 95. 80, besides being a nice round number, is the title of a song by Green Day.

Keri might not, but I may need to visit The Bucket before too much longer.

P 4: “…no thanks Toby…I only date girls by the way…”

Nobody expected Milford to win, so the Mudlarks can crow about proving people wrong and shocking the world.

In all reality Kerri , why don’t we stop at CVS and get a tube of something for your zits and then go to the Bucket. Great idea Tony , I mean Toby.

At least they’re going back to The Bucket. Apparently, the pie and Mo’s surly demeanor at The Diner were too much for Milford teens.

Kerri sounds like Yoda in P2.

So, the fans can just walk on to the court after a game??

.486% of Americans older than 13 years identify as trans individuals, so of course it’s the main story now in Gil Thorp. Amazing how new authors just have to get on the latest trend to attempt to make a name for themselves. Data: https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/subpopulations/transgender-people/

Don’t want to be nitpicking, but shouldn’t it be “ok Keri, they’s coming, ok”

Sherlock’s theme song for today: Sonny James sings “Young Love”

P2 – “HEYYY! HO! HEYYY! HO!”

And speaking of hey, hey you there, why aren’t you reading Mopped Up Thorp right now?

A thrilling Milford victory, the perfect situation for Fistpump Man to be pumping like mad. And I’m nowhere to be found in the stands? Fistpump Man feeling totally left out now.
