Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for December 02, 2023

Guess that threesome ain’t happening…

Deep down inside, E(MeMe)ly is a switch hitter.

P4 “Do you wanna snap some mackerel, Gil?”

We are now entering the Friend Zone. Population: Gil.

So are they living apart now? So many questions…

If Gil’s looking to get out of his own strip, then he may want to go Full O.J.

…Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me, one says she’s a friend of mine.

Next week: Gil projects his anger outward. Bear crawls for days, boys!

As Gil walks away, he begins to quietly sing, " They say that breaking up is hard to do, now i know, I know that it’s true…"

Cue Song by Roy Clark. Thank God and Greyhound you’re gone!

How appropriate. The 1970’s Top 40 hits won’t get out of my head….

Looks like It’s over, you knew I couldn’t stay

She’s comin’ home today

We had a good thing, I’ll miss your sweet love

Why must you look at me that way?

It’s over

Sad eyes, turn the other way

I don’t want to see you cry

Sad eyes, you knew there’d come a day

When we would have to say “goodbye”

Does this mean this strip is ending??

P2.5 Gil takes his ring off. Sorry dude.

Nice catch!

Gil welcomes failure in his marriage as well.

Third and long, but it’s misdirection time.

Don’t women know when they say " We Can Still Be Friends" they just killed the Relationship???

She’ll come back, but he’ll need a new cologne. Eau de Carp

Maybe Gil (and the readers too) will wake up from the Nightmare that has been going on for too long (Dalls circa 1980) and we can get back to the way things were.

She swore that she would be all mine and love me ’til the end

But when I whispered in her ear, I lost another friend, oh

Good times, bad times, you know I’ve had my share

When my woman left home for a brown-eyed woman

But I still don’t seem to care

P 2.5 (Gil): “…. Uh yeah, no… that ship sailed when you humiliated me in front of the entire town, son…”

P2.5 “Stop saying stupid sh!t E(MeMe)ly. I gotta go.”

stop looking at me like that gil !!!

outside tays is waiting ready to go to the gentlemans club

if your happy and you know it clap your hands should have been panal twos dialouge

Jeeze, Gil; Beth is waiting for you. Get a grip, Dude.

In all reality, how many times have those lines been said during breakups ?

More big hands for Whigs

P 2: doesn’t Gil mean “… I HOPE you’re happy… because thanx to you, our kids are a mess…”?

The only way to save this strip imo, is for Gil to wake up from a terrible dream. The current strip is a disgrace. It is so sad to see what happened to this beloved comic strip with a niche audience.

P4- (Ericka): “Mimi, is he gone yet?”

Next up for Gil, “Milford’s Golden Bachelor” on basic cable!!

Gil is obviously not even listening to Mimi in P1. Who is he thinking about while Mimi babbles? The pilot? Beth? Holly Dobbs? All three? And speaking of thinking, you should be thinking about reading today’s Mopped Up Thorp.
