For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for November 15, 2024

They’re bored, Mike. Many college students don’t have cars, are low on funds, stuck on campus dorms…they gotta vent and find fun where they could…at others’ expenses. Been there. And drinking also factor into it. Beer frees them to behave immaturely.

These are not good pranks.

Fake blood in clothes dryers! A lot of fake blood has dyes in it which are difficult to remove from clothing. That would be difficult to get out of a clothes dryer.

Gluing a fridge shut is not much better. If you break the seal on the fridge trying to open it, then you have to replace the refrigerator door seal.

Surprising Weed didn’t slap a “KICK ME” sign on Mike’s back in panel #3.

I was expecting that pat on the back to leave a “Kick me” sticker.

Checque your back, Mike.

Trump will see to it that education starts educating ! No more majoring in Beyonce’ !!

Many’s the sitcom about college life I’ve seen where you never see the students in classes.

$50000 a year to have fun and its still cheaper than Disney.

Sadly, some people would rather be cavemen than model citizens.

When I was in college, I was always busy. It was either studying for a test, a quiz or writing a paper. I was never the prank type.

Like I said a couple of days ago, I am so glad I didn’t have to deal with dorm life in college.

did Lynn’s colorist wipe out the proverbial “Kick Me” sign?

I never was much one for practical jokes. Perhaps that’s why I never “got” the Three Stooges humor of poking someone’s eyes, or being slapped upside the head. Laughing at someone else’s induced discomfort is beyond gauche.

Well, he’s certainly learning things! :-D

There’s a reason they call it sophomoric behavior…

Did Weed just put a ‘Kick Me’ sign on Mike’s back? Looks like something written ther but can’t read it.

he’s learning something alright. :J

Being destructive is a “little fun”?

That would have been my purpose.

At least its not a frat house.

Anybody remember the last season of LEAVE IT TO BEAVER,where Eddie and Wally hooked a chain onto Lumpy’s rear bumper?

In my day this only happened for the first couple of semesters. After that all the joker party types had flunked out.

Don’t smirk at homeschoolers, nor those who attend parochial schools or the military academies.

Chances are you are going to end up working for an alumnus of one of those institutions.

They were raised by s#!tty parents…

No Kamala?

No Kamala>

No Kamala?

No Kamala!! :(

Like Capricorn….

Ok Mike, now you’re just making way too much sense. ;-)

Weeder was being rhetorical but Michael answered it.

Were the classes cancelled after Kamala lost to give Michael and the others “emotional support”?

My guess is the classes aren’t challenging enough

Did Weed just smear a loogie on Michael’s jacket?

I heard somewhere that the more males there are in a group, the lower the IQ of the group.

I was sure Weed was going to stick a “Kick me” sign on Mike’s back!

I can relate to all of that. My “friends” pulled up a MANHOLE COVER out of the street, carried it up the hill in Syracuse, put it into my bed to see what would happen. Normally I fell into bed; not that night. That would have HURT!!

Hah ! I remember life in the dorm. It could be a bit crazy…

They had bottle rocket wars when I was in college in the late 70s, I stayed in with the door shut and after they ran out of them the hall was so smoky you could not see. These bottle rockets were much more powerful than the ones out nowadays.

I truly thought Weed was gonna slap a “Kick me” or similar sign onto Mike’s back

I remember hearing a prank that went horribly wrong when everyone flushed the toilets while one student was taking a shower.
