Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for December 03, 2024

Phoebe the mean machine!

That doesn’t sound like Dakota’s question to answer.

It’s mean to be mean to your mean friend.

I finally ghosted all of my mean friends. 10/10 choice, should have done it sooner.

I grew up with friends who shut up and waited for me whenever I closed the cover on the book. Not all that good at helping me learn true life skills, but I learned all kinds of other things and had LOTS of adventures.

Ain’t it the first time they acknowledge they ARE friends ?

Phoebe and Dakota are “Frenamies”!

Some people need remedial self awareness classes.

Dakota is very tolerant, she won’t exclude anyone from friendship simply because they are mean – even if they steal her shoes.

Know what I mean, Vern?

What about Marigold? Isn’t she a friend?

Is Dakota being drawn with bigger, rounder eyes? Does that mean she’s not so mean anymore?

I don’t think Dakota’s ever done anything as mean as stealing shoes.

But the whole point of having mean friends is so you can be mean to them.

Maybe she didn’t mean it like that

Seems to be a rerun from 2018.

Retroussé noses abound in this strip

Know what I mean, ’Arry?

How does the shoe-stealing work? Does GQ sneak into her house and take them, or rip them off D’s feet when they’re together?

None of my friends were ever mean to me, I just don’t see the appeal.
