Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 24, 2023

P4: At least we think that’s your mother; she’s slurring her words and carrying an open wine box and smells like fish.

Uh… what’s going on? And why is the needle resting between 2 adhesive pads?

There you go Keri, E(MeMe)ly finally bothered to show up. That will make it all better.

What are the Big Board prop bet odds for: E(MeMe)ly will have Ericka in tow when she makes her grand entrance and that if yes, E(MeMe)ly and Ericka will talk Keri’s doctor (or is that Frannie?) into a round-robin session of gyno exams?

P2.5: No Pedro it’s not all right. I’m 14. We’ve been fools. I’ve interrupted Emily. We’re done.

P 3.5 (Keri): “….who?… tell her I’m not taking random visitors right now…”

If Keri was a freshman last year and played JV, shouldn’t she be 15? At any rate, let’s all pile on Mimi. Figuratively speaking.

I’m pregnant with anticipation to see where this goes next!

(Was that too soon?)

P-1: Save this cell! Two (2) big hands apologizing to each other.

P-2: That naughty Pedro suggests Keri would feel better after a reverse Cowgirl.

P-3: In a shock development (but not for this strip) we learn Keri gave birth to a Parent.

pedro whispers keri just dont get any cold sores your mouth can take care of me fine

keri in a daze thinks meemaw is here she escaped the bleachers !!!

jami is wondering why there is a dead stork in the front yard

I wonder if Emily will have that scuzzy girlfriend with her when she comes in the room tomorrow?

Wow! This strip is very comical today.

Wow! Someone finally told her mother!

Enter Gil, in a blonde wig and Milford red sequined dress.

One more Al Stewart

“…it’s only her imagination leading her astray

See her for a moment, then she drifts away

The Ghost of Mimi Corday…”

One of my favorite Al Stewart selections. I melt whenever I play it. Had to use it to slay the Gil.

Two big hands in P1, Rod had a very satisfying day. And speaking of satisfying, what is more satisfying than reading Mopped Up Thorp?
