FoxTrot by Bill Amend for November 27, 2011
Transcript:
Paige: Want me to do your Christmas shopping for you? Jason: What's the catch? Paige: No catch. I'm just done with mine and I'm going through mall withdrawal. I need the bustling crowds! The blinking lights! The happy music! The scrambling for deals! The walking from store to store to store to store to store to store to store to store to store...Please let me do it for you! Please, please, pleeeeeeeeeeeeease?? Jason: On one condition. Paige: Name it. Jason: You have to let me do your math homework. Paige: Deal! Jason: Whoo-hoo! Roger: We have really weird children. Andy: My therapist prefers the term "interesting."

Yes, mall fanaticism not withstanding, Paige needs help if she thinks Jason would do her math problems correctly. Watch it gal! He’ll sabotage your work and make a fool out of you.

My nephew came to spend Thanksgiving with us (on college break). He and my son hung out by doing Chemistry and Calculus for fun.

“Interesting” is a politically correct way of saying wacky. But hey, wacky is all for fun and fun for all…at least in our family. Happy Thanksgiving and let the Holidaze begin!

I find doing Calculus relaxes me. Especially if it’s a particularly difficult one and I solve it, what a rush! Nuts, huh?

My Diff Eq instructor was a riot, but most of the class had their heads down writing everything he said. I was the only one laughing.

Boy, Paige IS addicted to the mall if she’s letting Jason do her math homework.

At least they’re working together for once! Andy should be appreciative of that at least.

I’m over malls. Online shopping is far more convenient and safer.

What do mean by interesting, Spock?

But at least mall crawling doesn’t kill you.

I’m so glad Bill didn’t give up the Sunday strip when he “retired” from “FoxTrot”. I wish Gary Larson had done the same.

I just love the bluntness of Roger’s statement..Personally, I think “weird” fits better, but in a really funny way..I also hate to think how much Andy’s therapist is making from her undoubted countless sessions.

Uh oh. I’ve been described as “interesting” more than once. Not even in connection with my username!

@ Ray C Agreed – had Far Side day calendars for years. I also wish Bill Watterson had done the same. The Sunday Calvin’s were the best anyway.

Why should Paige be afraid of Jason sabotaging her homework when she will be shopping for gifts for his friend (s) ?

Watch out. She’s probably going to get some junk and he’s going to do some phony work.
