Gunther: "I'm Gunther" Ox: "I'm Ox. That's short for Oxford. My folks thought I'd be a college brain. 'Stead I got bran" Gunther: "You mean brawn- physical strength" Ox: "Yeah. Guess ya don't get both. I'm not the smartest knife in the deck, like you" Gunther: "Well, the critical thing is, you have a big heart, Ox. You're a good person" Ox: "Am that!"
You know, this stereotype is about played out. Thanks Greg for perpetuating the big unintelligent oaf mentality. Protip: Some of the smartest people I’ve worked with were Marines. No not the stereotypical people who are rejected by all the other branches so they have no other choice but the Corp, but genuinely intelligent, well mannered individuals, who just happen to be very big and scary strong. Thats just within this last year. I recall several of my friends in High School were in amazing shape, big and intelligent. One of our Defensive Linemen for the football team graduated as valedictorian. But hey, lets continue to associate that big means unintelligent. Wow, I’m losing more and more faith in this comic lately.
