Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for November 18, 2022

Rock ’em Sock ’em Siblings…new from Hasbro!

Is P1 coming from the bedroom? Maybe it’s Gil’s turn to dress up as the Penguin.

Sure, I’d say potentially giving someone a permanent disfigurement or disability is a proportional response to them cropping you out of their own digital photo album and calling you a kindergarten insult after you aggressively confronted them for daring to laugh near you. Keri’s totally a great person, really. Agree or you’re a bigot.

I think I saw this same plot line in B.C., only the video game was a rock.

Wait. Keri cold-cocks’s the b*tch because she cropped her out of a picture? I’m living in a world I don’t understand.

There’s a knock on the door at the Thorp house . Good evening Officer ,how can we help you ? In all reality , I have warrant for your daughteŕ’s arrest on assault charges. Is she home ?

P1.5 “You’re right Gil, yelling won’t help. You need to spank her – wait – spank me, first. I’m the bad guy, remember?”

P2.5 “Heard? I just peed on your bed, wanna see?”

P3.5 “That’s BED WETTING nerd to you, sis!”

Day 8 without sports (video games do not count eventhough they are called e-sports – should be e-activity). I guess Ol’ Hank has gone Trumpian – does not like getting criticized for his lack of sports knowedge, is too lazy or uncaring to do the research to get it right, so does not include sports anymore in the strip (or keeps it to a bare minimum.

P1.5- Gil: Is the safety word still creamy?

Vito from Goshen is hoping to finish the week with some insane Luke comments to hype upcoming games. He had to lay off a couple of collectors today because of the lack of action. He’s got Pranit taking bets on Gil’s divorce date as the new attraction on the Big Board.

Dorothy is Keri’s personal bully?

P1: Correction- the late Scott Hall was always the bad guy.

P 2: Notice how neither of them is saying " …that’s not true…"

Aww, Jami’s a fan of ADVENTURE TIME

P-2.5: I know you are, but what am I?

P-3: See, the “kids” still care about each other. Isn’t that precious? Remember when GT used to teach lessons? Pffttt!!!

I must have missed the bullying.

The old missing earring trick in P2…

im expecting keri to ask to bring a cat litter box to school .this writer probably believes thats true

And she continues to get positive reinforcement for being violent a-hole.

P 4 (Keri): “…or you’ll be next…”

P 1 (Gil): “…because HeeHaw raised you to be that way…”

Coaches Held Hostage: Coach Kaz, Day 38. According to the Anti-Defamation League, "the number 38 is used as a numeric symbol by members of the Hammerskins, a racist skinhead group. Substituting letters for numbers, 38 stands for CH or “Crossed Hammers,” a reference to the crossed hammers of the group’s logo. The most common use of this numeric symbol is with Crew 38, a Hammerskin “support” group consisting of female associates of the group as well as males interested in becoming members. A variation on the symbol is 838, which stands for ‘Hail Crossed Hammers.’" Maybe the Milford branch of the Hammerskins is who’s holding Kaz, who did celebrate Yom Kippur, hostage.

Meanwhile, Day 6 since Mud Mountain Murphy entered the bathroom at Lou’s Nite Spot, Dr. Rex Morgan too helpless, or clueless, to stop it.We at least got Keri to take her medicine and like it, even if it was meted out with a Thorpiversean curve. I’m pretty sure ol’ Mudster will have wiped and washed his hands and used the hand dryer in time to sit at the Thorp table for thanksgiving. It might help to have a clear path to the bathroom should Mud indulge on a Bucket Turkey Wing.

Irish, Funny, funny, My Man. Not even gonna try. You da Man.
