Frazz by Jef Mallett for January 02, 2023

Mrs. Olsen is starting the year showing she’s still got it -

… aspiration and a dig all in one quick comment.

Isn’t aspiration when fluid or other non-air things enters the lungs and causes adverse reactions in the human being subject thereto?

Meet the New Year. Just like the Old year.

Same as it ever was. Same as it ever was.

Is she implying Frazz wasn’t the best student..?

Ka CHOW!

So let me get this straight, people in the U.S. plant signs on their front lawn to state that one of their kids is graduating from “primary” school! And they have it on there for the entire school year? Something to look forward to I guess, everything eventually creeps north into Canada. Full disclosure, I have seen such signs, but they are put out for a couple of weeks at the end of the school year.

Frazz doesn’t care about commercial success, otherwise he wouldn’t still be a janitor. He likes writing and selling songs but prefers to remain in the background.

From an online article:

Respiration, inspiration, aspiration. These three words share a common origin with the word “spirit.” Exploring the multiple meanings of these three words and how they overlap with the rich significance of the human spirit can illuminate the integral role of spirituality in our lives. By reflecting on these linguistic vestiges, we come to more fully see how notions of the human spirit have been formed from a constellation of meanings. For human spirituality is simultaneously about what most enlivens you, what most inspires you, and what you aspire for the most.

Is aspirational the backside of inspirational…

Aw, Mrs Olsen isn’t normally given to mean (and gratuitous) put-downs, especially directed at good-natured but hard-working dudes like Frazz.

Boom.
