D’oh!

Yup, Spud’s going to mop up this year. Going to make quite the splash. It’s even going to leave him floored.

The seagull just about to watch it happen hahahaha

Kersploosh I actually want to see that…

The Who beg to differ:

Got a feeling ’21 is gonna be a good year

Of course, they were referring to 1921, so… never mind….

Gratias, Emily Litella

You say you want a resolution.

Spud is about to achieve his bucket list.

Is Spud totally deaf?

Frazz, this guy ain’t.

I always wonder how you are supposed toget the floor clean with this kind of swap. Can’t work.

I imagine the janitor is singing one last Christmas carol, with the second panel punctuated by “FALL, on your knees…!”

looks like a nice relaxing walk by the dock will be needed after school…

Spud starting the year like humanity in general, judging by the news. Sad.

Genuine LOL

I’m beginning to think Spud is correct in his want to just sit in his room with the shades drawn for the rest of his life.

Ears full of wax Spud?

Nowhere to go but up after this! Ooh, better not say it out loud.

Nothing a ham an’ cheese samich, homemade chips and a thermos of tomato soup with a lost and found hoody won’t cure (samich is yat for sandwich, with a nod toward my late father-in-law).

Poor Spud

He’ll probably be fine, probably, maybe, he’s not gonna be fine is he?

If that bucket doesn’t kill you, maybe so…..

My theory is that the janitor is a covert hit man who’s purpose is to hurt spud for his excessive cheese consumption.

Love the different sounds made while the bucket is carreening out of control.

A dirty mop water bath early in the day can be quite refreshing…

Yeah, this mop bucket has some things to say about that, Spud.

Although now that I think about it, having used those sort of mop buckets before in my place of work, I’m shocked the bucket didn’t just immediately tip over and dump out its contents down the flight of stairs instead.

Spud!! With all that clatter and bang are you deaf!? MOVE Boy!!

Luckily, at the last second, Amelia will … Nah

Yup, best to get the first concussion of the year out of the way early.

Spud looks forward to the year ahead, unaware that Mop Man’s evil plans are unfolding behind him.

Noooooooooo!!

It’s going to be a slinky year!

What’s amazing to me is the bucket manages to stay upright all the way down the stairs. In real life it would have dumped it’s contents around the second or third step.

But it’s a better comic this way :^)…

New year’s resolution: bathe more frequently.

Stay positive, Spuddy.

Aw, poor Spud

Fate has re-elected Spud to another term as Schlimazel of the Year.

Oh Spud, you poor, square, little boy.
