   Which show? “The Boondocks”, or “Star Trek: The Next Generation”? (Actually, never mind, I’d watch either one.)

   With Adam West playing Totally Not William Kuntsler.

   Jff’s expression in panel two is definitely saying “yep, time to look into old-age homes for this guy”, right?

   “So what’s this game?”

   “Football, you moron.”

   Maybe the band kids will show Dinkle their new original composition, “SOYLENT Night”. (He won’t be missed.)

   Wouldn’t that require Lefty and Skunky to actually… show some degree of affection for each other, rather than them just being paired up as a plot device to make Wally’s life miserable?

   “Have you come up with a title for your next book?”

   “Yes… ‘Murder at the Book Burning’!”

   “So what’s the plot?”

   “Plot? These things are supposed to have a plot? I just come up with titles.”

   The one shadowing Skip last week was named Emily, although she gave her last name as “Roberts” instead of “Matthews” like the Emily of the Shining Twins, so Batiuk only knows if it was supposed to be a new character or if he forgot another character’s name (see also: Mopey Pete, Flash the comic book writer). I THINK (but can’t be positive) this is probably Mindy (Ed’s granddaughter), not Emily (either one) or her twin Amelia (who I think usually dresses in darker colors than Emily?).

   But, again, not even Batiuk seems to know who some of these characters are at this point.

    It’s more accurate to say that they went to Westview and became teens, then were children again in Centerville until they miraculously became teens again. They were very clearly shown a few months ago as still being children, right up until The Burnings™ storyline where they apparently aged a decade overnight. Why Batiuk does this, we’ll probably never know.
