FoxTrot by Bill Amend for May 27, 2018

Hey, Paige, have you thought of utilizing hairspray on your hands?

Out, damned spot!

No wonder she thought it was “stupidly impossible”!

Looks like she flunked another one!

I’ve heard the perfumes of Arabia can help sometimes

I hope that she dosen’t have a date with a boy named Duncan.

I literally LOL’d for this one. I’m still smiling as I type this post.

We band of brothers, we happy few! That got a good grade on the Shakespeare test.

She flunked I take it.

Did she write the answers to the test on her hands?

Foxtrot is a tale told about an idiot, full of sound and fury signifying nothing…

I know a high school English teacher- this is the only foxtrot I showed her that actually made her laugh.

Out! Out! Damned C- !

The play is about a NY Lord, MacTramp, and his ambitious daughter, Lady Ivanta. … In this scene, we find Lady Ivanta sleepwalking through the castle, hallucinating and rubbing her hands together as if she is counting. She says: Out, damned Jared! Foul dealmaker and colluder! Out!

To be fair, the English curriculum might not have gotten to The Scottish Play yet…..freshman year was Julius Caesar for us, with TSP on tap for sophomore year.

I’m really puzzled here, guys. Wasn’t Page bad in mathemathics and biology but good in literature?

Double, Double Toil and Trouble…

I wonder if the High School acting class is as superstitious as a the professional stage actors are and refer to “Macbeth” as “The Scottish Play”?

I guess she didn’t do well, either …

She must have subliminally picked up some cues, even if she doesn’t remember Lady MacBeth, because why else would an intellectual taint cause her to wash her hands?
