This Marriage Is Going Great

What?

What?!?

What is Our Bore Day? How would this even work with the phrasing? Eh, forget it. Go outside and enjoy your local parks and some trees.

Wholesome

I like to think that Brutus was just standing there either just outside Veeblefester's office or in his own office  minding his own business when Veeblefester just rushes up to him, screams "Thornapple, you are a perfect idiot!" and leaves.

123*Password

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

"Yes, but that's not what we're talking about."

He should keep a small notebook of all his internet passwords next to the computer. That's what my mom does. She keeps all that in a small Go Diego Go notebook.

A Couple of Good Days

I don't understand golf. I don't understand how you get good at it or why people play it. I mean, couldn't you just play the same hole over and over again until you perfect it and then move onto the next hole? After a few years, you could play that coarse blindfolded. Anyway, how far is the hole on the practice green? Is a hole-in-one still good?

I guess that's one way of looking at it. Just leave off the qualifier at the end.

Ms. Crabtree Couldn't Handle a Snurp?

I can only imagine the noise that came from Hattie when she did that.

So kids are a walking hypocrisy. Many, especially the ones who think they are funny, will constantly burp and fart throwing caution to the wind just to have the attention and laughs. But if someone accidentally burps or farts, they immediately make fun of that person. Either farts are hilarious and deserve a laugh or they don't. Make up your mind.

Root, Root, Root for the Home Team

But if I don't stick with them through the bad times then how can I justify celebrating with them during the good times?

I'm assuming Brutus is watching baseball. It's baseball season, right now, right? Apparently the Cleveland Baseball Team is pretty good this year. The Cincinnati Reds aren't. I wonder which one Chip is sub-comic stripping here.

Back to Front

As someone who has only been around K-5/K-6 and 6-8 school districts, seeing 6th graders intermingling with 4th graders is weird to me. Wilberforce should be glad his look was updated because I can't imagine what those 6th graders would say about this look:

Seriously though, bullying may be an unfortunate part of school life but it's not cool. Don't bully.

I'm starting to do comics over on my Instagram. I've been a comic strips my entire life and used to really want to create and draw my own comic strip. Back in 1996 and 1997, I did over 400 comic strips for a series I created that, obviously, didn't get picked up. You can check out my most recent one right now.

No One Listened to the Intercom Anyway

Does Veeblefester not use or like email? Instead of "relaying messages" (what is that? sending a memo? going to each and every person? texting everyone?) or using a bullhorn, just write a quick email. You can even write in all caps if you want to mimic yelling.

Raise, Attempt 3

So at the end of the month when Veeblefester is just throwing a wadded-up piece of paper at his face, you'll know that raise is right around the corner.

People Don't Get Phones to Make Calls

The only friend Wilberforce has is Hattie and she's not one to have a smart phone. She's more of a buy a cheap burner phone and throw it in the river after you're finished talking to who you needed talk to kind of girl.

There's many cheap options for kids for smart phones. Just get him the phone and get the kid some games.
