Oooooh, you set yourself up for that one, Knute.

Shot yourself in the foot, Knute.

Ooh! Love Crystal’s frosty, purple-prose put-down! Sorry, Knute. You lose.

All names end with a K

He’s going to be walking down the hall all alone, wondering what happened. LOL Some different things go together VERY nicely.

Yep – shot himself in the foot, put that foot in his mouth, and stuck his head up his butt – a solo triple-play!

Although the strip is great, sometimes the comments are funnier than the strip!

I knew that James Bond was 007 but I did not realize that Q had a number as well!

I’m not a big fan of math, but Knute DID walk right into that one.

Shut up, Knute!

JUST—SHUT—UP!!!

Thank God someone gets it. “Beatniks”? “hippies”? Sheesh.

Greg’s obviously using Stoner Travis’s look from “Clueless” as the template but that look is dated now. But it’s probably the most accurate high-school look other than geek) that Greg shows (his Goth look for Crystal is sorta half-assed).

Crystal, ever so wise.

Crystal’s speech balloon is blue – think this may be a warning that she is a little put off with Knute’s opinions? Then on the other hand, maybe it goes with her colors like Knute’s yellow balloon goes with HIS colors. Or maybe blue and yellow are opposite and together they make … GREEN!

`GO GUYS!

good sunday morning laugh. my memories of a hated algebra class returned.

@imbaldeagle – step back and see that the colored speech balloons go with each character’s outfits. It’s to underscore the strip’s punchline.

Jesus, I hate it when people do this! The ‘a’ does not stand for the sound ‘ah’, it’s just a symbol that represents a variable. It is very much like a number.I hate knute right now.

Reminds me of a girl in my h.s. algebra class.Knute isn’t clueless. He just spoke before he thought. He now realizes he has walked into another test. He can still pull this off like in the McDonald’s commercials.

Dude, people like Knute don’t take analytical geometry. People like Knute usually play football instead!!!

I always liked math but as soon as you graduate school you gonna forget everything about algebra unless you keep the math books from school. I remember going through math class with algebra and some geometry but I forgot most of it. :S

Did anyone else notice that Crystal is pregnant?

Knute has reached terminal velocity with Crystal..

He’s falling at 32,18 feet per second/per second..

Funny, he doesn’t look Jewish.

wow, all this chatter for a comic…

Poor Knute. Remember to analyze everything you say around a woman, because even if you don’t, she will.

It doesn’t matter what you say, Knute. Girls can find a way to twist it and use it against you.

Haha, this was a great strip, Greg. :D

Great strip, Great T Shirt, and Knute, if you’re ever stuck in a situation like that again…. Just tell her “I Love You”.

ladyfinger: You can handle a five minute conversation going two weeks, but not a couple days out of sync with the calendar? Cartoon conventions (and I don’t mean where people travel to dress up like characters).

no one would’ve dressed like this in 1972. knute’s dressed more like 1995.
