Wait, wait, I get it… It’s because global warming means everything gets warm!

If this is what they’re teaching in middle school

then I can understand how Herb can be so abyssmally stupid

 Of course, this doesn’t explain why Heart was learning differential calculus of whatever it was in second grade a few months back…

Pinny points out, by the way, that “the flash card reads ‘9×5′ in all three panels. Why is she asking for ‘5×8′ and even ‘5×9′?”

If you have to edit the point out of a strip…

… just toss it out and draw a new one.

I mean clearly, this was supposed to be “How do middle-aged people have sex?” “Reproduce” doesn’t make any sense, isn’t funny, and really doesn’t warrant Val’s coffee-spilling reaction.

School Days, School Days, Dear Old Snow and Flu Days…

Cidu Bill on May 27th 2009

Just wondering… Has anybody ever heard of “flu days”? Other than during this year’s Swine Flu Panic, that is. Seriously, can somebody explain why we’re treating this like Son of the Black Plague? Sure, it can be a dangerous illness — but so can “seasonal flu” (a term apparently nobody needed until this year; think “analog clock”), which so far has killed, no exaggeration, more than one thousand times as many Americans this year as Swine Flu has.New York City Health Commissioner Thomas Frieden said yesterday, “Our hearts go out to their families” of two New Yorkers who apparently died from Swine Flu last week, adding “as for everybody who died of other causes last week, hey, life’s a bitch.”

Good Night Nurse!

Hasn’t this familiar storyline passed its expiration date? A woman’s right to nurse in public has been written into law in some states, and in other states telling a woman to cease and desist has the potential to lead to a lawsuit. This is something every restaurant owner is aware of.
