I remember reading my dad's collection of these comics as a kid and being like "Haha yeah school is messed up," and now as a teacher reading them again in this thread, I'm more like "Please, I'm just trying to do my job :smithicide:" I guess it's time for me to accept that I'm The Man. Soon I'll start identifying with Rose is Rose and turning into "edgy" alter egos when I add a little paprika to some soup and throw my kids out into the snow to freeze. Help me.

We've actually gone to great lengths in my department to address many of Groening's complaints here, but since we're at the college level by then it's usually too late. Of course, we have grant money and no arbitrary national testing standards to meet, so we actually get to experiment until something works, whereas most K-12 systems don't have that luxury.

Technically it is Pibgorn and it's not really new as he is redrawing (and apparently occasionally tweaking) his pre-9CL strip.

It's...not bad, honestly.
It has saved us from months of Pibgorn updates, so even though it's him self-indulgently rehashing a rejected strip, I can live with it.

The only way that this Luann arc would satisfy me is if Gunther realized it was Australian boy that he actually loved this whole time, and runs off to new york to chase him, and then maybe after he gets rejected for being a goon, he gets hit by a bus or something The Bus, so we can just show reruns of that again.

Nope! You have the correct interpretation! Even when Gunther had a hot Latin girlfriend who was totally into him he would break into panic sweats at the thought of actually... omg... kissing her!!! On the lips!!!!:froggonk:

Gunther freaks out when women make romantic advances towards him, he freaks out when his mother engages in a relationship with other men, and he generally only shows interest in women when other relationships prohibit them from being with him... man would a therapist have a field day.

I think it's a different car than the first panel. In panel 1, Martin and some of his gang get shot up by the cops, and he doubles back to try the state highway. Meanwhile, in panel 2 his "follow-up gang" (a different car with different gangsters in it) are roaring down Highway 4 when the cops start shooting at them. The driver of that car decides to keep going, not realizing that the cops blocked off the road with the DEATH TRUCK. Final tally: one gangster car shot up and headed towards another ambush, one gangster car obliterated and everyone in it dead.

(Also, I think the DEATH TRUCK was loaded with explosives? I seem to remember an earlier strip where one of the cops who parked it across the highway was bragging about it. As any good law enforcement officer would, naturally: setting up a trap that will murder the absolute gently caress out of criminals rather than waste time and money on a trial and prison terms? Even Dick Tracy would be impressed!)

Not just "a girl" as in any random girl. I think "working in reverse" means that he's just realized that Tiff has in fact turned up the heat on him and he's turned on.

But the horrified part, yeah, that's still there, because he still hasn't got a clue what to do about it.

She deserves better, but I'd bet my bracket winnings (hah!) that this is where it's going (at least until the Evanses decide to stomp on Tiffany some more).

Which will ironically have the opposite effect, as literally anything is better than being Gunther's significant other.

Pogo, in which somebody's been sleeping it off. (March 20-21, 1958)





Pogo was a real influencer this week. This sequence with Pogo and Albert was cited from the Senate floor on the 20th by Sen. William Fulbright (D-Arkansas) when talking about Eisenhower "borrowing" antirecession ideas from Democrats. In his analogy, Lyndon Johnson, who was the Dem Senate leader at the time, was Pogo.

AP posted:

"Every suggestion Pogo has made has been accepted immediately by Albert as something already conceived and desirable beyond question," Fulbright said. He said Albert's philosophy "seems to me to characterize perfectly the attitude of President Eisenhower toward the present recession and toward the Democratic leader of the Senate.

"Time and time again the President reiterates the view that there is no urgency--that things will get better in March--and at the same time he points with pride to his deep and fervent concern to combat a recession that does not really exist."
