Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for September 30, 2024

‘One of us, one of us’ comes to mind. What film did that line come from?

But, is Kevin programable?

Time to see what Flower Power can do.

Won’t last. Not with Kyle and Krystal waiting in the background.

Too late! Kevin has already been turned…

You should just say that Kevin has to come to your classroom for a chat with Ms. Wormwood, and then run away! :)

Yeah, heaven forbid he be happy.

Is this strip demonizing special ed and, worse, special ed kids?

Sounds like Kevin is gonna become brainwashed by the hippie class.

An out-of-control child is borrowing trouble here. Get a grip!

“Gow do we get him back?” “Let’s raise our hands above our heads and see if that works!”

Oh come on, leave Kevin alone, let him make new nice & interesting friends! Feel free to join them!

“Well isn’t that special?”

- SNL Church Lady

Not just girl cooties, but Special Ed girl cooties….. icky times two!

If Carla could deprogram herself, why can’t Kevin?

OK this arc is getting creepy and very discriminatory against the work that good teachers do in special education. CUT IT OUT, BONDIA!

Uh-Oh! Will Kevin drink the coolaide? Will his flower pendant give him disco powers for “Stayin’ Alive?” Will he become a flower power zombie? Tune in tomorrow, same Crabgrass channel, same Crabgrass time!

This feels more like a commentary on the state of the regular educational system.

The Rankin-Bass Rejects attempt a soul take-over….!!

Or he’ll be “gulp”…one of THEM.
