Suddenly, the principal hands out magic markers…

NO BULLIES ALLOWED

Oh, it must be Opposites Day.

I love pop quizzes. Physics is Phun.

You can have real chemistry in your science classes.

Things can really add up in Math. Sometimes the fun multiplies.

Most of my friends are in school and at school.

I was thinking these could be real, until I saw: “WAYNES L. LOVES ALGEBRA” and “CAFETERIA FOOD IS AWESOME” it was then, that I knew… it wasn’t real!

Nobody likes Algebra or cafeteria food.

Nice try, but the kids impressed by graffiti all know the principal’s handwriting.

We love Corporal punishment!

Graffito.

Bizarro World?

The English teacher also enjoyed the graffiti, until the grammar errors were discovered.

I see the hypnosis class is yielding some interesting results

i started high school in RI and we had graffiti from the Civil War…school was built in 1843, but they tore down that building sophomore year

Three guesses who wrote that…

Bleeb is waving. He must enjoy it. :)

More than likely that graffiti can be attributed to the teachers and the school board.

I can think of one that rhymes with Wutz, but that wouldn’t fit the theme for this comic.

I like algebra and our cafeteria food was fine.

That must be Bizzarro world.
